CHAPTERS 1 TO 49 VERIFIED QUESTIONS
ANSWERS GRADED A+
⩥ Annotation. Answer: Biologic information attached to a genomic
sequence.
⩥ Assembly. Answer: Reconstruction of short-sequence reads on a
scaffold of reference DNA.
⩥ Autosome. Answer: A non-sex chromosome.
⩥ Base pair. Answer: Complementary base pairing of guanine and
cytosine and adenine and thymine through hydrogen bonding.
⩥ Centromere. Answer: The region of a chromosome between the small
and long arms that is used during mitosis to attach the spindle fibers.
⩥ Chromatin. Answer: A structure in the eukaryotic nucleus composed
of DNA and histone proteins.
, ⩥ Chromosome. Answer: A nucleic acid structure bound by protein
containing all or a portion of an organism's genetic information.
⩥ Codon. Answer: A three-base code found in messenger RNA, used in
translation to specify the amino acid to be incorporated in the growing
polypeptide chain.
⩥ Copy number variant (CNV). Answer: A structural variant of a large
region of the genome that has been deleted or duplicated.
⩥ Deletion. Answer: A DNA sequence that is missing in one sample
compared with another. Deletions may be as small as one nucleotide or
as large as an entire chromosome.
⩥ Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Answer: Repository of the genetic
material in an organism.
⩥ DNA methylation. Answer: Addition of a methyl group to a cytosine,
used to regulate gene expression.
⩥ Epigenetics. Answer: Modifications that affect DNA packaging and
accessibility without changing the DNA sequence.
