Answer: Option A  

Explanation:

ESTs are Expressed sequence tags, which are the segments of mRNA sequences that is derived through the single sequence reactions performed on the clones from cDNA libraries which were randomly selected.

This is possible by the help of bioinformatics that this much of data is available nowadays for study and research purpose.

Till date we have 45 million expressed sequence tags obtained from over 1400 species or can be said as eukaryotic species.

a single stranded dna (oligonucleotides) can hybridize with (select one): select one: a. complementary dna b. complementary rna
garri49 [273]

A single stranded DNA  (oligonucleotides) can hybridize with (d) both complementary DNA and complementary RNA.

DNA is the Deoxyribonucleic Acid. It is the genetic material present in majority of organisms. The nitrogenous bases present in DNA are: Adenine, thymine, Guanine and Cytosine.  DNA is a double stranded structure hence it forms hydrogen bonds with a complementary strand. The complementary strand can be of a DNA or RNA.

RNA is the Ribonucleic Acid. It also is a genetic material present in very few organisms. RNA is less stable than the DNA and may be either single stranded or double stranded. The nitrogenous bases of RNA are: Adenine Uracil, Guanine and Cytosine.
