Q

Bei einer Datenbanksuche mit BLAST erhält man E- und P-values. Welche Aussagen sind richtig?

A

a. P-Value und E-Value sind aneinander gekoppelt
b. E-values ändern sich wenn sich die Datenbankgröße
ändert
c. Der E-value ist immer größer als der P-value
d. Je kleiner der E-value, desto signifikanter der Hit
