Answer:
"Birth order and sibling spacing are unrelated to a child's intelligence."
Explanation:
The theory, put forward by Robert Zajonc, a psychologist at the University of Michigan, holds, in brief, that the greater the number of children in a family and the shorter the time between their births, the lower will be the intelligence of the children, particularly those born later. A mother's genetics determines how clever her children are, according to researchers, and the father makes no difference. Women are more likely to transmit intelligence genes to their children because they are carried on the X chromosome and women have two of these, while men only have one.

Making rough estimate of physical quantities is useful because it allow us to have an idea of how big or small a quantity is, it gives us the near result of the real quantity a matter contains. The approximate quantity obtained will give us information about the size of the quantity.
Answer:

Explanation:
Given:
Brown allele (B) is dominant over the white allele (b).
It will be assumed that the alleles are not related to the X and Y chromosomes.
See attached diagram for details of the general case (for both homo-zygous and hetero-zygous parents)
For both parents hetero-zygous,
P1:
Genotype: Bb (100%)
Phenotype: brown (100%)
F1:
Genotypes : BB, Bb, bB and bb in equal proportions, i.e.
BB (25%), Bb (50%), bb (25%)
Phenotypes: 75% brown (from BB and Bb), 25% white (from bb)
Answer:
B. Use the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to make multiple copies of the DNA.
Explanation:
The scientist is to analyze a small sample of DNA, the most useful step to start this would be first the use of polymerase chain reaction to make various copies of that DNA sample. PCR is essential and quick process that gives a lot of copies within few hours. It uses the sample or target DNA, according to which the primers are designed. Taq polymerase and DNA polymerase are also used in the process, it consist of various cycles in which copies are made. There are three basic steps 'Denaturation', 'annealing', and 'extension'.
