Explanation:
During PCR, we use two primers one is forward primer and the other one is reverse primer they match the sequence of one one of the two complementary strands of the target DNA, they flank the target region (that the region which we has to be copied). if we add only one primer it copies only one strand of the DNA in multiple copies. Usually we call this as Asymmetric PCR.
Generally Primers are synthetic short stretch of oligonucleotides that are complementary to the target DNA. They act as a foundation for the amplification process of DNA to form multiple copies
Here's the answer in picture form
Answer:
Since the gene mutates at a rate of 0.76 base pairs every 17.1 million years, to find out the time it would take for 1 base pair to mutate can be calculated by dividing 17.1 million years by 0.76
17,100,000 ÷ 0.76 = 22.5 million years
The following equation can be used to describe this:
μ = [(r2/N2) − (r1/N1)] × ln (N2/N1) = (f1 − f2) × ln (N2/N1)
r1 = the observed number of mutants at time point 1
r2 = the observed number of mutants at the next time point
N1 and N2 are the numbers of cells at time points 1 and 2

I believe the answer to the multiple choice is c I’m not to sure
Answer:
A. The number of cells that are dying is balanced by the number of new cells that are being formed.
C. Harmful waste products may be accumulating.
D. The cells are likely running out of nutrients.
Explanation:
During the stationary phase, the number of viable cells remains constant. This may be due to a balance between cell division and cell death wherein the total number of newly formed cells and the cells undergoing death are equal.
Nutrient limitation is one of the several factors that make the microbial cells to enter the stationary phase. Depletion of nutrients slows down the population growth.
Accumulation of toxic waste products as it occurs during the growth of anaerobic bacteria also adversely affects the population growth.
For example, the accumulation of lactic acid and other organic acids (by-products of anaerobic respiration) inhibits the growth of the population by making the medium acidic.
