, Trace file - this depicts the raw results of automated sanger sequencing.
Typically includes lots of colored humps that represent each nucleotide
Base call - the nucleotide at a given position in your DNA sequence
according to the results of automated sanger sequencing
Phred score - a measure of the quality of the identification of nucleobases
generated by automated DNA sequencing
Consensus Sequence - combination of trimmed for and reverse DNA
sequences that are typically more accurate than each sequence alone
Accession Number - unique identifier # given to each sequence in the
BLAST database
BLAST - basic local alignment search tool ; used to find matching DNA
sequences from a database
MUSCLE- an alignment of multiple DNA sequences that allow you to
visualize similarities and differences between the DNA sequences

, original research that is communicated "first-hand" by the people who
collected and analyzed the data = primary literature
an expert summary or synthesis of someone else's original research that is
communicated "second-hand" by people who did NOT collect or analyze
the original data = secondary literature
"third-hand" information that is typically written by non-experts, often lacks
citations, often prone to generalizations and simplifications, and not
typically peer reviewed = tertiary literature
Which of following questions could DNA barcoding successfully address?

Primary article (aka it's about research that the authors did themselves) =
research article
Secondary article (aka it's about research that someone other than the
authors did) = review article
Original research = research article
Summary of previously conducted research = review article
Provides good background on a topic = review article
Typically has MORE references than the other = review article
Overview of particular field/topic = review article

Roughly 70% of the American population eats avocados at least once each
year, so the potential exposure of the populace to contaminants in
avocados is widespread (WHO, 2012). = why the area of study is important
(hook)
Nonetheless, little research has been done with regard to the uptake of
trace metals by avocados during their growth (Haas et al. 2019). = why past
work is inadequate
The proposed research would address this problem by making the first
detailed examination of links between groundwater and concentrations of
trace metals in avocados. We will test the hypothesis that heavy metal
concentrations in groundwater affect their concentrations in avocados. =
