PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is an excellent method of generating copies of target DNA. If a single piece of double stranded

DNA (dsDNA) is put into a PCR machine, how many dsDNA segments will there be after 3 rounds?

Answer: After 3 rounds, 8 segments having 2 original strands on different segments will be present.

Explanation:

The polymerase chain reaction selectively and repeatedly copy the double stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the PCR machine.

1st round:

Single piece of double stranded DNA (dsDNA) unwinds in two seperate strands, before complementary nucleotides are synthesized to establish double helix.

2nd round:

The two dsDNA yields 4 segments before complementary nucleotides are synthesized

3rd round:

The four dsDNA yields 8 segments before complementary nucleotides are synthesized.

Therefore, at the end of 3 rounds, the two original strands will be present on the 8 different segments of copied DNA.

Which best illustrates the result of the process of meiosis
Bess [88]

Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. This process is required to produce egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction. During reproduction, when the sperm and egg unit to form single cell for sexual reproduction. During reproduction, when the sperm and egg unit to form a single cell, the number of chromosome is restored in the offspring.

Meiosis begins with a parent cell that is diploid, meaning it has two copies of each chromosome. The parent cell undergoes one round of DNA replication followed by two separate cycles of nuclear division. The process results in four daughter cells that are haploid, which means they contain half the number of chromosomes of the diploid parent cell.
