Predict what the effect of a powerful fungicide that killed almost all fungi have on humans and animals.
a. the humans and animals would not have any more parasites that could harm them
b. the amount of waste would build up and the toxins produced would harm the animals and humans
c. the ecosystems where the fungi were eliminated would flourish and provide more food for the animals and humans
d. the plants would no longer have any competition and could provide more food for the animals and humans.

The correct answer is option b. "The amount of waste would build up and the toxins produced would harm the animals and humans".

Explanation:

Fungi play a major role in the ecosystem as decomposers and recyclers. When fungi eat the waste they help that other organisms absorb elements such as nitrogen and phosphorus from decaying matter. If a powerful fungicide would killed almost all fungi, the amount of waste would build up and the toxins produced would harm the animals and humans.

c.) polymerase chain reaction

- "unlike the original dna fingerprinting method, dna profiling does not use restriction enzymes to cut the dna. instead it uses the polymerase chain reaction (pcr)? to produce many copies of specific str sequences. pcr is an automated procedure that generates lots of copies of a specific sequence of dna."
