Apaleontologist has recovered a bit of organic material from the 400-year-old preserved skin of an extinct dodo. she would like to compare dna from the sample with dna from living birds. the most useful method for initially increasing the amount of dodo dna available for testing is

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

Explanation:

Polymerase Chain Reaction is a method commonly used to increase or amplify the amount of DNA available in a sample or segment to use it in studies or analyses that require a fair amount of available DNA.

what are your answer choices?

answer: - few nutrients

high pressure

low temperatures

explanation: 1. few nutrients:   open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.2. high pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.3. ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface. 4. varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.5. low temperatures:   the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°c to an average of 17°c
