After designing PCR primers that target this gene in Trichobilharzia, you head to Flathead Lake to collect samples. You extract DNA from your samples and set up PCR reactions. Assuming one of your reactions begins with a 5 copies of the template gene, compute the minimum number of cycles required to generate at least 100 ng of amplicon DNA. For this calculation, you will need to use your response to Question 3C and know that 1 basepair has a mass of 650 daltons (1 dalton = $1.66 \times 10^{-24}$ g). You may also assume that the amplification is ideal, i.e., the number of molecules doubles every cycle.
