If a spot on a microarray contains a gene that is not expressed in cancer
cells, but is expressed in noncancer cells, what color will the spot in the
microarray be? (Note: noncancer cell cDNA is marked with a green
color and cancer cell cDNA is marked with a red color)
Ans: Green
Proteins within a cell can be separated and identified by
________________.
Ans: mass spectrometry
Researchers studying the genetic basis for motility in rainbow trout
identify the complete genome and transcriptome from a muscle cell
and a gut cell from the same rainbow trout. We would expect their
results to show that there are more differences in the
________________ between these two cell types.
Ans: types of RNAs produced
Genotypic frequency is the proportion of a population that carries one
type of variant, or allele, at a locus.
