Which of the following statements concerning metagenomic sequencing is incorrect

Biology
1 answer:
dedylja [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is "proteins are extracted from an environment, fragmented, and adaptors are added".

Explanation:

The missing options of this question are:

A) Software aligns sequences and assemble large portions of genome.

B) The samples are subject to polymerase chain reaction for amplification.

C) The sequences of the amplified fragments are determined by next-generation methods.

D) Proteins are extracted from an environment, fragmented, and adaptors are added

The correct answer is option D) Proteins are extracted from an environment, fragmented, and adaptors are added.

Metagenomic sequencing refers to the amplification and determination of all nucleotide sequences in a sample, which might contain multiple microorganisms and viruses in order to understand the presence and proportions of microbiota. Metagenomic sequencing involves the use of next-generation methods, to amplify and characterize all the nucleotides sequences. It is false to affirm that the proteins are extracted directly from the environment in this technique, since metagenomic sequencing is focused on the nucleotide sequences.

What would be the consequence to an organism if they are missing the following DNA repair mechanisms:
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

a. DNA polymerase proofreading:   consequence of its absence is the DNA mutation

b.  Mismatch repair enzymes : consequence of its absence impedes homologous recombination resulting in the final mutation

c. Nucleotide excision repair enzymes : the absence of nucleotide cleavage repair enzymes would impede the functioning of damaged DNA repair mechanisms

Explanation:

a. DNA polymerases are the enzymes that form the DNA in cells. During DNA replication (copying), most DNA polymerases can "check their work" with each base they add. This process is called review. If the polymerase detects that you have added a wrong nucleotide (incorrectly paired), remove it and replace it immediately, before continuing with DNA synthesis

b. In homologous recombination, the information from the homologous chromosome that matches that of the damaged one (or from a sister chromatid if the DNA has been copied) is used to repair the fragmentation. In this process the two homologous chromosomes are approached and the undamaged region of the homologue or the chromatide is used as a template to replace the damaged region of the broken chromosome. Homologous recombination is "cleaner" than the union of non-homologous ends and does not usually cause 11 mutations

c. Excision repair: damage to one or a few DNA bases is usually fixed by removing (excising) and replacing the damaged region. In repair by base cleavage, only the damaged base is removed. In nucleotide excision repair, as in the mating repair we saw earlier, a nucleotide section is removed

Trace the flow of energy through a typical food chain (describing "what eats what"), including the original source of that energ
slava [35]
You need to draw a food chain starting with something small like bacteria and and getting back around the loop to bacteria again( explaining what the the previous organism does to the next for example it eats it). Then you need to underline the organisms/animals. Then write in bold the way it got the energy from the previous one( for example if it eats it )

Mary and Jim used a streak plate to test pieces of the rock. They compared their results to a streak of limonite:
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The streaks made by the limonite are yellow, and the streaks made by Mary and Jim’s sample are brown. Therefore, they are not the same mineral. The rock is not made of limonite.
