Answer: Option B

Explanation: A genetic predisposition also known as genetic susceptibility can be defined as the likelihood of developing particular disease based on the genetic makeup of person.

It results from specific genetic predisposition that is inherited from the parents.

It increases the chances of diseases development but do not cause it directly.

So, the correct answer is option B

How does the insertion mutation affect the DNA?
gtnhenbr [62]
An insertion mutation occurs when an extra nucleotide is added to the DNA strand during replication. This can happen when the replicating strand "slips," or wrinkles, which allows the extra nucleotide to be incorporated (Figure 2). Strand slippage can also lead to deletion mutations. I’m not sure if this right but I tried

ikadub [295]

Answer:

- Can leverage Next Generation Sequencing technology to identify and characterize organisms

- Has resources to support analysis at the DOE-JGI site.  

- Can identify microbiologic organisms without traditional isolation and culturing of individual organisms.

Explanation:

Metagenomics can be defined as the study of whole genomes of biological communities recovered from environmental samples. This genomic field has enabled the discovery of new species (microorganisms) and their effects on the environment. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies allow to obtain huge amounts of genomic data, which has been a limitation in genomics and metagenomics. Metagenomic NGS (mNGS) is a technique used for sequencing nucleic acids present in a biological sample containing mixed populations of microorganisms. Finally, the Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) is a referent in metagenomic analysis, especially in genome assembly data obtained from microbial communities. This Science User Facility has developed a series of bioinformatics tools and databases in order to analyze metagenomic information.
