A radioactive isotope decays at a rate proportional to the amount of isotope present. If the concentration of isotope is C (mg l^-I), its rate of decay is:

                                                                    

A solution of the isotope ³²p is used to radioactively label DNA for hybridisation studies. The half-life of ³²p is 14.3 days. According to institutional safety requirements, the solution cannot be discarded until the activity is 1% its present value. How long will this take?____________________

 You are a scientist who is using genomics to currently study a new bacterial species that no one has ever studied before. The following sequence is a piece of DNA within the coding region of a gene that you have recently sequenced.

 

You are using shotgun sequencing to determine the DNA sequence of the genome of this new bacterial species. For one strand of a 30-nucleotide long stretch of DNA, you get the following sequences out of your shotgun sequencing reaction. 

 

Choose correct 30-nt-long DNA sequence with the help of above-mentioned fragments

Which of the factors below weaken the hypothesis of abiotic synthesis of organic monomers in early Earthʹs atmosphere?

1.  the relatively short time between intense meteor bombardment and appearance of the first life forms

2.  the lack of experimental evidence that organic monomers can form by abiotic synthesis

3.  Uncertainty about which gases comprised early Earthʹs atmosphere
