With the help of DNA fingerprinting which can be used to determine paternity. There are three babies (Baby A, Baby B and Baby C) in a maternity ward, and three sets of confused and worried parents. (Father and Mother #1 are a couple, as are Father and Mother #2, and Father and Mother #3.) 

You do each PCR reaction on chromosome 15 and load each one into a separate well of an agarose gel, and then run the gel.

 

 

Match the babies up with their actual parents.

 

BABY	PARENTS
I. Baby A	a) Father and Mother #1
II. Baby B	b) Father and Mother #2
III. Baby C	c) Father and Mother #3

I. Oxytocin and vasopressin are typical neural hormones , that is, hormones secreted into the circulation by nerve cells.

II. Vasopressin and oxytocin each have a characteristic neurophysin associated with them in the granules in the neurons.

III. The precursor for AVP, prepropressophysin , contains a 19-amino-acid residue leader sequence followed by AVP, neurophysin II, and a glycopeptide. 

IV. Prepro-oxyphysin, the precursor for oxytocin, is a similar but smaller molecule that lacks the glycopeptide.
