Solely by this method, it is not possible. Several other additional DNA testing must be preformed if there isn't the mother's DNA.
The mother's DNA serves to make sure that all the resulting parts from the father's DNA can be completed by the mother's DNA when matching it all with the child's DNA. For this method, the child's DNA is "cut" in specific sites by r<span>estriction enzymes. This restriction enzymes are put to "cut" also the mother's DNA and the father's DNA. It is expected that all the resulting segments from the child's DNA can be found either on the mother's side or the father's side. All segments that can be matched to the mother's DNA segments, should be matched to the father's DNA segments. That's why the mother's DNA is so important for this method.</span>

Angiosperms, dicots

Explanation:

Angiosperms are highly differentiated vascular plants which can produce flowers and bear fruits with seeds in them. These flowering plants undergo reproduction and produces new plants. The reproductive parts like ovules and ovaries, stigma, stamen, pollen are all present in the flowers.

Angiosperms can either be a monocot or dicot. If they contain two embryonic leaves or cotyledons they are referred as dicots. Flowering angiosperms like geranium, magnolias are all dicots.

Geranium is a dicot angiosperms that produces small purple flowers.

Gymnosperms or bryophytes do not bear flowers or fruits. Monocots have only embryonic leaf.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Independent Variable: Hours of sleep

Dependent Variable: Test scores

Experimental Group: Group A

Control Group: Group B

Explanation:

Hours of sleep is the independant variable because it is the factor being tested by the teacher. This is the factor that can be controlled.

Test scores is the dependant variable because it is the factor being affected by the changes in the independent variable. This is the variable being measured.

Group A is the experimental group because this is the one that has been altered or changed from what is normal.

Group B is the control group because nothing is being changed in this group but simply measured as a basis for comparison.
