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.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer: I think your punnett square is incorrect because it has 4 letters in one box. There must only be two letters in each box since your punnett square doesn't not contain four squares in a row or column.

Explanation:

It is perhaps Rr, Rr, Rr , and Rr again since they all start with a capital letter. The dominant allele takes over.
