What Is the Difference Between Genetic Dissection and Genome Sequencing

question 1

Multiple Choice

What is the difference between genetic dissection and genome sequencing?

• A)Genetic dissection studies a single gene at a time while genome sequencing can study all the genes in a genome at once.
• B)Genetic dissection studies all the genes at a time while genome sequencing can study only one gene at a time.
• C)It is essential that mutations are available for genetic dissection and mutations are of no use in the study of genomes by genome sequencing.
• D)The genetic dissection approach requires only wild type animals while the study of genomes by genomic sequencing requires mutants.

Definitions:

Eccrine Sweat Glands

Sweat glands that produce a water-based secretion, helping to cool the body through evaporation of sweat.

Negative Feedback Loop

A regulatory mechanism in which a 'stimulus' causes an 'output' action that in turn diminishes or stops the original stimulus.

Arrector Pili Muscles

Small muscles attached to hair follicles that cause hair to stand upright (as in "goosebumps") in response to cold or fear.

Sebaceous Glands

Sebaceous glands are small oil-producing glands in the skin that release sebum into hair follicles, lubricating hair and the surface of the skin.
