Question 2: Advances in DNA sequencing, 5 points A. 3 points. Imagine you are explaining the revolution in DNA sequencing to a relative. You're trying to explain to them why the price dropped one-million fold. The major key advance that lead to this drop in price is: B. 1 point. In Next Generation Sequencing, dsDNA linkers are added to each of the fragmented pieces of DNA. This linker enables the fragments to stick to the flow cell. What other function does the linker provide? (one sentence max): C. 1 point. Shotgun sequencing involves shearing the DNA into short fragments and sequencing them all at once. After sequencing the short fragments, the researcher must assemble the sequences (also called "reads") into a complete sequence. Does this approach require that the researcher start with many copies of a DNA template or is one enough? In providing your answer (yes or no), explain how the researcher assembles the reads into a complete sequence. Circle your answer: Many templates are needed One template is enough Provide a one sentence explanation for how the sequence reads are "assembled":

Explanation / Answer

This will help the researcher to get the full contig without any gap. And there wil be whole gene sequencing possible.
