b. starts cloning and sequencing of short, random DNA fragments
c. uses genetic recombination data to help arrange sequences correctly
d. requires sequences to be annotated after contig assembly
e. requires chromosome fragments to overlap for contig assembly
f. requires subcloning of large fragments into smaller clones for sequencing
g. is a better approach for repetitive sequences

Answer:

1. Map-based genome sequencing: a; c; f; g

2. Whole-genome shotgun sequencing: b

3. Both sequencing methods: d; e

Explanation:

Map-based genome sequencing is a method that makes use of a reference genome sequence in order to determine the relative position of the DNA fragments before they are sequenced. This method is useful to determine the position of repetitive DNA fragments (for example, duplicated genes, repetitive non-coding regions, etc.) and Transposable Elements. Therefore, map-based genome sequencing is a suitable approach for large genomes (which are usually composed of repetitive sequences). On the other hand, in whole-genome shotgun sequencing, DNA sequences are obtained before the correct order of these DNA fragments is known. In this method, the genome is fragmented randomly into small DNA sequences (between 100 and 1000 base pairs), which are subsequently sequenced through the chain-termination sequencing approach (i.e., Sanger sequencing) and finally ordered by using bioinformatic tools that assemble overlapping reads.

What is Evolution in Biology?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

In biology, evolution is the change in the characteristics of a species over several generations and relies on the process of natural selection. ... Evolution relies on there being genetic variation in a population which affects the physical characteristics (phenotype) of an organism.

3 best methods of determining latitude
Anit [1.1K]
Latitude measures how far a point is north or south of the equator. Since the earth is round, distance from the equator is measured in angular degrees with the equator being 0 degrees and the northernmost point -- the North Pole -- being at 90 degrees. The southernmost point -- the South Pole -- is also at 90 degrees.<span>Latitude is measured in degrees north when in the northern hemisphere and degrees south when in the southern hemisphere.

Endosymbiosis of cyanobacteria is widely accepted as an explanation for the development of chloroplasts. The presence of endosym
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is- photosynthesis

Explanation:

According to the endosymbiotic theory, an ancestral cell engulfed a cyanobacteria and lived in symbiotic association with that bacteria and over time this bacteria evolved into the chloroplast and the ancestral cell developed into plant cell.

So as cyanobacteria was the first aerobic cell that can evolve oxygen and can do photosynthesis to produce organic food so it could be concluded that the presence of endosymbiotic cyanobacteria provided a cell with the advantage of photosynthesis.

Find the sensory hair ( vibrissae) around the mouth, cheeks. what do you think these are used for?
lawyer [7]

Vibrissae, more commonly known as whiskers, are sensory hair that generally have a tactile sense, which is equivalent to skin. They grow on most mammals except monotremes (duck-billed platypus and echidnas) and humans, though humans still have remnants of the muscles once associated with vibrissae in their upper lips. Vibrissae serve a number of purposes: such as sense of touch; detection of danger, air and water currents, and movements of other animals; and the locating of food.
