A microarray known as a GeneChip, with most now known human protein coding sequences, has recently been developed to aid in the study of human cancer by first comparing twothree subsets of cancer subtypes. What kind of information might be gleaned from this GeneChip to aid in cancer prevention?

  1. information about whether or not a patient has this type of cancer prior to treatment.

  2. evidence that might suggest how best to treat a personʹs cancer with chemotherapy.

  3. data that could alert patients to what kind of cancer they were likely to acquire.

  4. information about which parent might have provided a patient with cancer-causing genes.

Precision will be reduced, but yield will be increased
Optimisation of a PCR reaction is often a compromise between the competing demands for precision, efficiency and yield. Although the specific effects may vary, generally, increasing the annealing temperature will increase non-specific primer binding and reduce precision. Increasing the length of the elongation phase will reduce the proportion of incomplete newly-synthesised strands and therefore increase yield. In this case, the potential effect on efficiency is unclear. Increasing the elongation phase would increase the reaction time, but the time taken to ramp down to a lower annealing temperature would be reduced.
Which of the statement is worng? Aminopetrin………s
