Chapter 12, Problem 1.1Q
Summary Introduction

To differentiate: The Sanger sequencing and high throughput sequencing.

Introduction: The genome of an organism is defined as the whole genetic information that is inherited from one generation to the next generation. It includes the protein-coding genes, non-protein coding genes, regulatory genes, chloroplast DNA and mitochondrial DNA. The human genome consists of about 2.5 billion gens of which only 20,000 genes are protein-coding genes.

Explanation of Solution

The difference between the Sanger sequencing and high throughput sequencing is described as follows:

CharacteristicsSanger sequencingHigh throughput sequencing
  • Template preparation
  • The direct DNA template is used.
  • The PCR technique is used to amplify the template.
  • Sequencing chemistry
  • Chain termination
  • Sequencing by amplification.
  • Fluoresce tags.
  • The fluoresce is tagged with deoxyribonucleotides.
  • The fluoresce is tagged with deoxyribonucleotides.
  • Rounds
  • It involves a single round of sequencing.
  • It involves multiple rounds of sequencing.
  • Number of base pairs.
  • It can sequence about 300 to 1000 bases.
  • It can sequence about a million bases.

In a population of Jackalopes (pictured below), horn length will vary between 0.5 and 2 feet, with the mean length somewhere around 1.05 feet. You pick Jackalopes that have horn lengths around 1.75 feet to breed as this appears to be the optimal length for battling other Jackalopes for food. After a round of breeding, you measure the offsprings' mean horn length is 1.67. What is the heritability of horns length (h2)? Is Jackalope horn length a heritable trait? (4 pts)? 12pt v R Paragraph V BIU A श्र > B
There are many differences between DNA replication happening during mitosis in a Douglas fir tree growing in the Oregon Cascade Mountains and DNA replication happening during a PCR reaction in a forestry research lab at Oregon State University where the laboratory is amplifying a Simple Sequence Repeat. Complete the following table that compares the two DNA replication events in terms of the primers, the nucleotides, the polymerase, and the target sequence. Additionally, give a general value for the number of copies of the template DNA after one S phase in one cell and after the lab has completed the PCR reaction. Tree SSR Type your answer here: Primers Nucleotides Polymerase Target sequence Number of copies
