Each base is identified with a different fluorescent color.

Automated sequencing techniques require only one lane on an electrophoresis gel rather than four. What is one method that makes this possible?

true

Codon usage varies from one organism to the next.

Lipid Bilayers/Proteins

Enveloped viral membranes are generally ________ with associated virus-specific ________.

removing virulence genes from a pathogen purifying a specific subunit of a pathogen adding virulence genes from a pathogen to a non-virulent organism

Genetically engineered vaccines can be created by __________.

Which of the following statements is FALSE? Lambda is a temperate phage that infects Escherichia coli. Lambda is replicated by the rolling circle mechanism. Lambda always circularizes upon entering the host cell. Lambda is a linear double-stranded DNA phage.

tissue or cell culture

The use of ________ is the easiest and most effective way of studying many animal and plant viruses.

it analyzes RNA, thus it reveals which genes are expressed under different conditions. Submit

Transcriptome analysis is useful in relation to genome analysis because

30%

Typically ________ of ORFs in a genome cannot clearly be assigned a function. These ORFs are usually assigned and predicted to encode hypothetical proteins.

false

Viroids infect only fungi.

false

Viruses are known to infect Bacteria, but no virus has yet been found that infects Archaea.

It is copied every time the host DNA replicates.

What is the fate of the prophage during the lysogenic stage?

The RNA must be converted to cDNA
