Lab 5: RFLP Flashcards
1
Q
individuals within a population have
A
any single nucleotide differences (polymorphisms) within their genomes
2
Q
These differences are often found in
A
the middle of restriction enzyme recognition sites
2
Q
cutting two different individuals’ DNA with the same restriction enzyme may yield
A
different fragment patterns when the cut products are separated by gel electrophoresis
3
Q
individuals that have a similar ethnic background should have
A
similar restriction enzyme cut patterns.
4
Q
that individuals within a given ethnic population tend to
A
share most of the same polymorphisms in their mitochondrial genome
