Given a sequencing reaction length of approximately 500 successive nucleotides, what is the absolute minimum number of sequencing reactions needed to determine the complete human genome, excluding overlap and redundancy?

6.4 million

Explanation:

The human genome contains 3.2 billion bases (nucleotides).

Each reaction can sequence a read length of 500 nucleotides. We are excluding overlaps, and redundant sequences (which in reality would always happen when performing sequencing). Therefore, the minimum number of sequencing reactions is the total number of nucleotides in the genome divided by the length of read 3.2 billion ÷ 500 = 6.4 million

a adaptation is when organism changes itself to fit the environment

hello everyone my name is nevaeh, i know everyone needs in some way, shape, or form and i am willing to provide. i set up a google classroom where people can ask me questions and get on work. no question is a stupid question so do not be afraid to ask. i usually only focus on core subjects but if you ask i will with other specialized subjects. i can do essays all the way to power points : )

my google classroom is the code is 7hr2k4

ionic bonds are two oppositely charged ions that attract. a sodium ion has a 1 positive charge; a chloride ion has a 1 negative charge. sodium and chloride have oppostive charged ions that attract which forms an ionic bond. a chemical bond formed when two atoms share electrons is called
