Resumo de Recurso

Questão 1

Questão
What type of chromosome does G-banding "line-up"?
Responda
  • Metaphase
  • Anaphase
  • Telophase
  • Prophase

Questão 2

Questão
What stain does G-banding use?
Responda
  • Giemsa
  • Chrome red
  • Methyl-blue
  • Green

Questão 3

Questão
G-banding can only detect large abnormalities. True or false?
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 4

Questão
What does FISH stand for?
Responda
  • Fluorescent in situ hybridization
  • Fluorescent in site hydrolysis
  • Familial in situ hybridization
  • Familial in situ hydrolysis

Questão 5

Questão
You don't need to know what abnormality you are looking for when using FISH. True or false?
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 6

Questão
Why do you need to know what abnormality you are looking for when using FISH?
Responda
  • Because it uses fluorescent probes to bind to specific sequences
  • Because it used restriction enzymes marked with fluorescent probes to cut DNA at a specific sequence

Questão 7

Questão
How can you tell if there is an abnormality using the FISH technique?
Responda
  • Because some of the markers will not light up as they have not been able to anneal to bits of DNA sequence as they are missing
  • Because all of the markers will light up because there are specific sequences of DNA that cause genetic disorders
  • Because if there were no abnormalities the markers would not show up at all

Questão 8

Questão
FISH can show slightly smaller abnormalities than G-banding, but they still have to fairly large. True or false?
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 9

Questão
What does QF-PCR stand for?
Responda
  • Quantitative fluorescence Polymerase Chain Reaction
  • Qualitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction
  • Quantitative familial polymerase chain reaction
  • Qualitative familial polymerase chain reaction

Questão 10

Questão
What is QF-PCR used to detect?
Responda
  • Trisomy syndromes
  • Abnormalities in chromosome size
  • Deletion syndromes
  • Abnormalities in chromosome banding

Questão 11

Questão
What is the name for trisomy 13?
Responda
  • Pattau's syndrome
  • Edward's syndrome
  • Down's syndrome

Questão 12

Questão
What is the name for trisomy 18?
Responda
  • Pattau's syndrome
  • Edward's syndrome
  • Down's syndrome

Questão 13

Questão
What is the name for trisomy 21?
Responda
  • Pattau's syndrome
  • Edward's syndrome
  • Down's syndrome

Questão 14

Questão
Which biological technique is quickest?
Responda
  • FISH
  • G-banding
  • QF-PCR

Questão 15

Questão
You have to know what abnormality you are looking for when using QF-PCR. True or false?
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 16

Questão
What sort of abnormalities does array-CGH detect?
Responda
  • Larger abnormalities
  • Smaller abnormalities

Questão 17

Questão
What is DNA labelled with in array-CGH?
Responda
  • Fluorescent dye
  • Coloured markers
  • Radiation

Questão 18

Questão
What does the CGH in array-CGH stand for?
Responda
  • Comparative genomic hybridization
  • Comparative genomic hydrolysis
  • Comparative genetic hybridization
  • Comparative genetic hydrolysis

Questão 19

Questão
How can you tell if there is an abnormality in the DNA when using array-CGH?
Responda
  • The relative fluorescence of the sample and control strand will be different
  • The relative radiation of the sample and control strand will be different
  • The length of the sample and control strand will be different when run through gel electrophoresis

Questão 20

Questão
Which two molecular biological techniques look at the actual base sequence when looking for genetic abnormalities?
Responda
  • G-banding
  • FISH
  • QF-PCR
  • Array-CGH
  • Sanger sequencing
  • Next generation sequencing

Questão 21

Questão
Which of the following is cheaper and less time consuming?
Responda
  • Sanger sequencing
  • Next generation sequencing

Questão 22

Questão
Why do we only sequence exons when using sanger sequencing?
Responda
  • Because the introns do not code for proteins so are not important to us
  • Because it is time consuming and expensive
  • Because introns rarely have mutations that cause genetic diseases
  • Because we are unable to isolate the introns to sequence them

Questão 23

Questão
What machine is used in sanger sequencing to read the sequence of bases?
Responda
  • An electropheragram
  • A Geiger counter
  • A microscope

Questão 24

Questão
Not all changes to the base sequence cause disease. True or false?
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 25

Questão
Why is it better to use next generation sequencing when you don't know what you are looking for?
Responda
  • Because it is easy to sequence a whole genome
  • Because sanger sequencing would take too long
  • Because next generation sequencing is more accurate
  • Because next generation sequencing is less expensive
