Chapter 11, Problem 14PS
Summary Introduction
To design: An experiment using microarray to determine whether or not the different gene expression in two types of adult cells from one person is due to the alternative RNA splicing.
Introduction:
The DNA microarray is the solid support, usually of a glass or silicon, on which the DNA sequence is attached in an organized manner. Each spot of DNA is a probe that representing a single gene. The DNA microarray is one of the most effective inventions that allows for the comparison of thousands of genes at a time.

You submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document. Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different.
