Bioinformatics is the science of using computational methods (specialized software) to decipher the biological meaning of information contained within organismal system. Comparisons of experimental data involving DNA sequences generated by different laboratories are critically dependent on the use of a universally agreed-upon standard of analysis. Which of the following is universally used as the agreed-upon standard of analysis for these comparisons? Group of answer choices A GenBank database. A species reference sequence (RefSeq) system. A genomic library collection. A ChIP/chip analysis system.
