Questions and Answers

What would the presence of three differently sized bands resulting from one PCR reaction in this experiment suggest?

  • The PCR reaction was not successful
  • The DNA sample was contaminated
  • The individual is homozygous at the D1S58 locus
  • The individual is heterozygous at the D1S58 locus (correct)
  • The sizes of the PCR products of the D1S80 locus in one family were 531 and 643 bp in the mother and 435 and 531 bp in the father. What are all possible fingerprints their children could have?

  • 531 bp and 643 bp
  • 435 bp and 643 bp
  • 435 bp and 531 bp
  • All of the above (correct)
  • Assume that a PCR product containing one 16 bp repeat unit is 383 bp, a PCR product containing two 16 bp repeat units is 399 bp, etc. If the sizes of the PCR products are 399 bp and 415 bp, how many 16 bp repeat units are present in each product?

  • 2 and 3 (correct)
  • 4 and 5
  • 3 and 4
