Answer:
As the two amino acids have only one codon, the oligonucleotide probe will have a greater specificity for the DNA which Correct precisely the sequence of the probe that matches that of the target sequence, the fewer false positives one will encounter.

d. inspecti
Answer:
C) net barriers
Explanation:
Both A and B are forms of chemical control and D, inspections, is a tool used to determine what type of control is needed. A is one form of mechanical control.
A: When an invasive species first becomes introduced into a new area, there may be a chance to eradicate it through a rapid response action if it is detected in time. If eradication is not possible, then the species may be subject to control and management efforts. Regardless of whether the goal is eradication or control/management, there are a suite of different options, which differ depending on the species, which one must consider. When making decisions on which options to use, one must use an Integrated Pest Management approach to choose the options which will be the most environmentally sound yet still affect the invasive species as strongly as possible. The various options for eradication/control/management include:
Physical or Mechanical Control - This type of control involves physically removing the invasive species (i.e. harvesting) or using barriers or traps to prevent their spread or to capture them. For invasive plants, mowing is another example of physical control.
Chemical Control - This type of control involves all sorts of pesticides (herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, piscicides, etc.) Although chemical use can be very effective, they can be very dangerous to other species or to the ecosystem in general and must be used in an environmentally sound manner. The key is to choose chemicals that are low-risk yet effective and that can be applied when the pest is at its most vulnerable.
Cultural Management - Cultural management is the manipulation of the habitat in ways that increase the mortality of the invasive species or reduce its rates of increase and damage. Cultural management that can affect invasive species including: selection of pest resistant varieties of crops, mulching, winter cover crops, changing planting dates to minimize insect impact, burning, flooding, crop rotations that include non-susceptible crops, moisture management, addition of beneficial insect habitat, or other habitat alterations that help the native species compete better against the invasive ones.
Biological Controls - This type of control is the purposeful use of an invasive species’ enemies (predators, parasites, and pathogens) – in other words other exotic species – to reduce the invasive species populations. This option involves much research and testing to be sure the species to be used preys only on the target invasive species.
