Question

Evaluate the statement select those that correctly apply meta genomic sampling of the biospheres

Answer 1

Answer:

Meta genomic sampling is the direct genetic analysis of genomes contained with an environmental sample.

Explanation:

The statements that correctly describe the genomic sampling of the biosphere are;

• As by carrying out meta genomic sampling we can be provided with the data of functional gene composition of microbial communities.
• Sufficient amounts of high-quality nucleic acids must be obtained for subsequent library production and sequencing.

• The DNA extracted should be representative of all cells present in the sample.

• Two strategies can be employed for meta genomics samples: reference-based assembly (co-assembly) and de novo assembly.

• De novo assembly typically requires larger computational resources.

• The "clonal" assumptions built into many assemblers might lead to suppression of contig formation for certain heterogeneous taxa at specific parameter settings.
