Precision will be reduced, but yield will be increased

Optimisation of a PCR reaction is often a compromise between the competing demands for precision, efficiency and yield. Although the specific effects may vary, generally, increasing the annealing temperature will increase non-specific primer binding and reduce precision. Increasing the length of the elongation phase will reduce the proportion of incomplete newly-synthesised strands and therefore increase yield. In this case, the potential effect on efficiency is unclear. Increasing the elongation phase would increase the reaction time, but the time taken to ramp down to a lower annealing temperature would be reduced.

Agglutination of antigens by utilising specific antibodies can only occur, if

Assume that three loci, each with two alleles (A and a, B and b, C and c), determine the differences in height between two homozygous strains of a plant. These genes are additive and equal in their effects on plant height. One strain (aabbcc) is 10 cm in height. The other strain (AABBCC) is 22 cm in height. The two strains are crossed, and the resulting F1 are interbred to produce 1000 F2 progeny. what is number of F2 progeny having intermediate height?

The diagram below shows the F factor and a portion of the E. coli chromosome that has three different insertion sequences (IS) of the same type as is carried on F.

                     

Describe the three different Hfrs (Hfr #1, Hfr #2 and Hfr #3) that can be formed by recombination between the IS on F and each of the IS sequences on the chromosome. Some including the positions of each of the markers (A, B, C, and D) and state which of these markers would be transferred early?
