Explanation / Answer

b) Answer is C (4 fragments)

DNA to be digested= 16000 bases

Restriction enzyme has 6 base recognition site.

The probability of finding one restriction site is one in every (1/4^6)= 1/4096 bases.

If the enzyme cuts every single restriction site, this will make 16000/4096= 3.9 cuts (n)

After making, say 3 cuts, no. of fragments will be n+1= 4

c) Answer is b ( to the right)

For sanger sequencing method, a complementary strand of the test sequence need to be synthesized (in the presence of 4 different dideoxynucleotides in 4 different tubes). As sequence is always synthesized from 5' to 3' direction using parental 3' to 5' sequence, therefore primer will be laid in the right of the test sequence.

d) As the primer makes strand in 5' to 3' direction, the smallest fragment containing ddc should be TTGTTATdc (which is not given in the options)
