Answer:

the answer is 3.2 x 10⁴

Explanation:

The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a technique widely used in molecular biology to exponentially amplify a specific DNA sample from a small amount of DNA. For this purpose, the PCR technique uses: 1- a DNA polymerase enzyme in order to synthesize new DNA copies and 2- one pair of DNA oligonucleotides (primers) which are complementary to the ends of the target DNA sequence. During each round of PCR, the double-stranded DNA template is unwound and each strand is used to synthesize a new DNA strand, thereby forming two new double-stranded DNA molecules. In consequence, each round of PCR doubles the amount of DNA.

The resistance to the pesticide in insects occurred because
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. favorable change in DNA of the insect.

Explanation:

At the point when a pesticide is first utilized, a little extent of the pest population may survive to introduction to the material because of their particular hereditary or genetic makeup. These surviving individuals pass along the gene resistance to particular insecticide or pesticide to next generation.

Upon introduction to pesticides, insects that don't have the resistance die eventually, in this manner permitting the insects with the resistance genes to endure and reproduce,creates more resistance insects.

Thus, the correct answer is option B. favorable change in DNA of the insect.
