Given the situation: A paleontologist has recovered a tiny bit of organic material fromthe 400-year-old preserved skin of an extinct dodo. She would like to compare DNA from the sample with DNA from living birds.Which of the following would be most useful for increasing theamount of DNA available for testing? Option a.) restriction fragment analysis Option b.) polymerase chain reaction Option c.) electrophoresis
Which of the following is NOT a tool used in recombinant DNA technology? Cutting specific DNA sequences using restriction enzymes. Adding Taq polymerase to copy DNA in PCR. Using primase to catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bonds. Inserting a gene of interest into a vector. Inserting a plasmid into bacteria to generate copies.
Would it be possible to use human polymerase for the PCR reaction? a. No, because human polymerase does not have the ability to withstand the high temperatures required for the PCR reaction to occur. b. No, because human polymerase cannot be extracted from cells to use in a lab setting. c. Yes, because we are using human DNA as the template DNA. d. Yes, because human polymerase can add bases to a template strand without a primer.

From where do we get primers for sequencing DNA? A) they are synthesized by reverse transcriptase B) they are cut out of plasmids using restriction endonucleases C) DNA primase is added to the sequencing reaction and synthesizes the primers D) biotechnology companies synthesize them using organic chemistry
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? A. 8 segments, with 2 original strands paired B. 16 segments, with 2 original strands on different segments C. 16 segments, with 2 original strands paired D. 8 segments, with 2 original strands on different segments
Suppose that you are given a short fragment of DNA to sequence. You amplify the fragment with PCR and set up a series of four dideoxy reactions. You then separate the products of the reactions by gel electrophoresis and obtain the following banding pattern: Write out the base sequence of the original fragment that you were given. Original sequence: 5′– ________________–3′
