  • Can somebody more learned than me help explain what these two questions are asking?

    So I am tackling an introductory bioinformatics course and I am kind of confused on what the following questions are asking to be honest, not really asking for homework help, but to simply explain how I would go about solving these?

    Here is one Q: https://imgur.com/cw2jeUc

    I am not sure if I am supposed to draw 5 different trees for the 5 different positions here?

    Isn't the answer WWWWW? Cos if you do 5 trees, position 10 is the most parsimonious and doesn't have any mutations but i don't know if I did this wrong...

    Here is a second Q: https://imgur.com/1ebAvRW

    I am given two structures here, I calculated the energy for the structure on the left using the tables provided for example at the top their is a 6 base hairpin so table shows that as 4.3 then we have UG to UA and that is -0.5 then their is a 6 base internal loop and that has 2.5 energy. Anyways I did this for the rest of structure 1 and added up all the numbers and got -2.3 so I'm pretty sure its correct.

    But I am not sure how to do structure 2... Starting at the top its a 6 base hairpin no problems, then we have UG to UA and that's no problem, but then the internal loop is that a 3 base loop or a 4 base loop? Cos the C is under A I'm not sure if its included in the loop.

    That's it from me guys, thanks!

    Hello. I am very familiar with the bioinformatics course. When I was doing my internship at Massachusetts College, we had a course related to an industry perspective. Also, a long time ago I wrote a scientific paper using the service https://bestessayservicesradar.com/m...sessay-review/, so I have good knowledge. I can help you out by structuring these questions. Is it still relevant?

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
