How might the Hardy Weinberg relationship be used to evaluate a new SNP genotyping technology using multiple individuals from a population? Group of answer choices
a)If genotypes match the reference genome, the technology is sound. Otherwise, the technology may have problems accurately calling SNPs.
b)If observed phenotypes follow Hardy Weinberg, the technology is sound. Otherwise, the technology may have problems accurately calling SNPs.
c)If genotypes and allele frequencies follow Hardy Weinberg, the technology is sound. Otherwise, the technology may have problems accurately calling SNPs.
d)None of the above
Select all that apply: A SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) is similar to an STR (short tandem repeat) in that:
a) an individual can have many different copies of specific SNP or STR
b) they both cause diseases
c)they are sequences that have many possible variants
d) an individual has one copy of this region of the genome from each parent.
Using the information provided below, which of the individuals A and B have:
i) Genotypic change
ii) Phenotypic change
iii) Genotypic and phenotypic change
X is the partial CDNA sequence of the normal CFTR gene. Use this to determine which DNA sequence (A &B)
is the DNA extracted from a patient with and without disease.

Since this is a complementary DNA (CDNA) The nucleotide "T" can be directly replaced with U to get the mRNA
strand. Example: ATG is AUG, TCA is UCA etc

- How can linkage disequilibrium mapping sometimes provide a much higher resolution of gene location than classical linkage mapping?arrow_forwardWhen the S.cerevisiae genome was sequenced and surveyed for possible genes, only about 40% of those genes had been previously identified in forward genetic screens. This left about 60% of predcited genes with no known function, leading some to dub the genes fun (function unknown) genes. a)As an approach to understanding the function of a certain fun gene, you wish to create a loss of function allele.
