Question

You are looking at the personal genome sequences of a neonate with a severe developmental disorder and the baby's mother. You are able to assume that both sequences are complete and fully accurate (no errors). While comparing the genomes at a particular position, chromosome 12, position 34,567,890, you notice a single-nucleotide variant (nucleotide that is different than the reference sequence human genome at that position) that the baby has, but the mother does not. i. This is a rare variant, but not private to the baby ii. This is variant private to the baby, and has caused the disorder iii. This is variant private to the baby, but has nothing to do with the disorder iv. This is a common variant Multiple Choice 1 point possible (graded) Order the four options above from the most-likely to the least-or un-) likely

Explanation / Answer

the answer is ii.This is the variant private to the baby, and has caused the disorder

because in a human the chromosome 12 is the longest and main responsible for disorders.

the multiple choice goes form most likely which is option ii and unlikely is iv. here goes the order

ii,iii,i,iv
