Question

How are the genetic and the physical maps assigned on the genome?

• A. Based on microsatellites
• B. Based on macrosatellites
• C. Based on kinetochores
• D. Based on centromeres

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Based on microsatellites

• The genetic and the physical maps on the genome are assigned based on microsatellites.

• They are also assigned based on the act of polymorphism at the restriction endonuclease recognition sites.

• The repetitive DNA sequences are called as microsatellites.
