P(B) = 1 - P(B') = 1 - (7/12) = 5/12 <span>P(A∩B)=<span><span>P(A∩<span>B′</span>)/</span><span>P(<span>B′</span>) </span></span>× <span><span>P(B)/</span>1

</span></span>Plugging values into the last equation we get: <span>P(A∩B)=<span><span>1×12×5 / </span><span>6×7×12 </span></span>= <span>542</span></span>
Now we can make use of the following formula <span>P(A|B)=<span><span>P(A∩B) / </span><span>P(B)</span></span></span><span> by plugging in the values that we have found.
</span>
<span>5/42 is the numerator and the denominator is 5/12.
</span>

The bottom (denominator) is P(B) which equals 5/12.

<span>P(A|B)=<span><span>5×12 / </span><span>42×5 = 6/210

6/210 = 2/7

</span></span></span><span>p(a[b]) = 2/7</span>

It is problematic due to antibiotic-resistance that would occur. This extensive use and abuse of antibiotics result in the emergence  of resistant strains of bacteria.  Some types of bacteria that cause serious infections in humans have already developed resistance to most or all of the available treatments, and there are very few promising options in the market.

How do dna molecules vary from one species to another?
Andru [333]
<span>Organisms all possess DNA as their genetic material. What differentiates them (and their DNA) is the sequence of base-pairs within the DNA. The base-pairs are actually specific sequences of nucleotides (i.e. adenine , thymine, guanine and cytosine, labelled A, T, G, and C respectively) which encode genes. In other words, the DNA in each organism is made of these bases, but their sequences differ from organism to organism.</span>

How can I remember the definition of sticky end? Read below for the definition. I need help memorizing it.
mamaluj [8]
I’m not sure if this helps much, but try thinking of an Aloe Vera plant. When you cut into it, you expose the the sticky center. The part you cut has a “sticky end.” So, think of a knife as the restriction enzyme, and the plant as the DNA molecule that you’re cutting. Hope this helps.
