1. What is genomics?
With the genomes of many species fully sequenced, scientists can study whole sets of genes and their interactions.
2. What is bioinformatics?
2. What is bioinformatics?
The applicaiton of computational methods to the storage and analysis of biological data.
3. How can we determine genome evolution?
By comparing genome sequences provides clues to evolution and development
5 facts on this chapter:
. new approaches have accelerated the pace of genome sequencing
. scientists use bioinformatics to analyze genomes and their function
. genome vary in size, number of genes, and gene density
. multicellular eukaryotes have much noncoding DNA and many multigene families
. duplication, rearrangmnent, and mutation of DNA contribute to genome evolution.
