100
The correct number of chromosomes that a human has.
What is 46.
100
In this year is when the first full genome of an organism was sequenced.
What is 1977.
100
This organism was the first to have its full genome sequenced.
What is Bacteriophage PhiX174?
100
The year that the Human Genome Project started.
What is 1990.
100
a nucleotide that has been "modified" with this feature allows the machine to read the sequence based off color
What is a fluorescently tagged nucleotide?
200
Thymine, Cytosine, Adenine, or Guanine are the four types of these
What are nucleotides?
200
This method of DNA sequencing is comparable to blowing up a huge stack of books and then deciding the order of pages.
What is shotgun sequencing?
200
This model organism shares over 95% similarity of its DNA with humans.
What is the mouse?
200
In what year was the Human Genome Project completed?
What is 2003.
200
This scientist is considered to be the father of genomics.
Who is Fred Sanger?
300
The process by which DNA strands are separated into single strands
What is denaturing?
300
This process inserts foreign DNA into a bacterial plasmid which is then inserted into a bacteria for mass reproduction.
What is bacterial cloning?
300
These types of model organisms are species that are useful because breed in large numbers and have short generation time.
What is genetic ?
300
These can be important variations between individuals in the nucleotide bases; just one difference in a segment that is otherwise the same.
What is single nucleotide polymorphisms?
300
This occurs when a modified nucleotide is incorporated into the DNA strand during Sanger sequencing.
What is chain termination?
400
the scientists responsible for discovering the double helix structure of DNA
Who are Crick and Watson?
400
This type of sequencing technology relies on the release of light with the addition of a nucleotide
What is pyrosequencing?
400
The first animal to have its full genome sequenced.
What is the nematode?
400
Is also referred to as one's SNP profile.
What is Haplotype?
400
This process provides an electric charge which helps move DNA fragments toward the positive charge from smallest to biggest, and allows them to be read by a camera to determine the sequence.
What is gel electrophoresis?
500
the number of base pairs in human beings
What is 3 billion?
500
The patented method of sequencing DNA by Illumina.
What is sequencing by synthesis?
500
These types of model organisms are useful because they occupy a pivotal position in the evolutionary tree or because some quality of their genome makes them ideal to study.
What is genomic?
500
The ____________________ has impacted science and medicine by creating technology with which to find genes that are responsible for diseases, find genes responsbile for how individual's respond to medications, and generating genetic testing for certain diseases.
What is the Human Genome Project?
500
The enzyme responsible for binding nucleotides to the template strand.
What is DNA polymerase?
