Before even using oil immersion lens, make sure you set the microscope to the lowest objective 4x.

You want to start small before increasing the magnification. Before you move to the next power (from 4x to 10x), make sure your center is focused using the coarse adjustment. Then move to 10x, and do the same adjustment. Then onto 40x, and once you get to 100x, use the fine focus (not coarse focus! because it will move the speciman a lot which messes up your field of view. Fine focus is just refinning so the picture appears clear.

Now, when performing oil immersion, get a dropper, and carefully drop an oil on the speciman, and get a slider to cover on top of it (BUT DO IT SLOWLY! you don't want to get any bubbles in it).

A researcher performs FISH with a probe against a known chromosome 3 sequence on cells with a small deletion on the p arm of chromosome 3. The most likely explanation when two fluorescent spots appear is: the sequence targeted by the probe is not within the deleted region.

<h3>What is FISH?</h3>

In genetic testing, FISH stands for Fluorescence in Situ Hybridisation. This is a test that looks for specific gene changes in cells. By doing FISH, we could look for specific parts of genes to detect genetic mutations and understand a variety of chromosomal abnormalities. If two fluorescent spots appear, it is most likely the sequence targeted is not within the deleted region.

Explain how you determined the genotype of Maria and Juanita, even though you did not text their D a
elixir [45]

The answer is a pedigree chart.

<span>Pedigree charts are used to explain the occurrence of particular genes from one generation to the next. It gives enough information about family disease history. They are used in families to find out the probability of inheriting some disease. So, if Maria and Juanita are cousins and the genotypes of other members of their family are known, the pedigree chart could predict their genotypes. Still, it is not as precisely as DNA test.</span>
