The repeats which occur together on a chromosome are referred to as VNTR. The length of each repeat is 60bp.
The first primer is 20bp and is 53 bp away from 1st repeat. Therefore, the total length of sequence amplified by the first primer till 1st repeat = 20+53 = 73bp. Beyond this point 6 repeats on 60 bp are present, hence, the length becomes = 73 + (60X6) = 433bp.
Now the reverse primer which is 21bp in length is located 28bp from the repeat on its side. Reverse primer comes from the opposite direction, so it must be present after the 6 repeats.
The total length of the amplified region = 433 + 28 + 21 = 482 bp.
Answer:
C) Flush out the contaminants with an excessive amount of water.
Explanation:
Water is universal solvent. It dissolve many solutes inside it. Soil is contaminated with number of chemicals which is used by farmers for the controlling of pathogens. These chemicals remains on the soil for very long time. These chemicals are removed from the soil by applying high amount of water which flush out the chemicals from the soil.
