A. GWAS: Weak, common alleles; Pedigrees: Strong, rare alleles
B. GWAS: Strong, rare alleles, Pedigrees: Weak, common alleles
C. GWAS: monogenic, Pedigrees: Polygenic

Q1. Answer:Option B, GWAS: Strong, rare alleles, Pedigrees: Weak, common alleles.
Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a genetic approach by which genetic variability is correlated with concern for a specific disorder.
GWAS analyzes used to classify the forms of allles relative to Pedigree analyzes.

Researchers examining families with hypercholestemia (high LDL levels) found missense alleles in PCSK9. While researches examining the genomes of individuals with very low LDL levels found nonsense allleles in PCSK9. I. How does PCSK9 regulate LDL levels? A. PCSK9 promotes LDL in the blood B. PCSK9 inhibits LDL level in the blood C. One cannot tell how PCSK9 affects LDL levels with just this information D. PCSK9 causes LDL levels to dramatically increase that then drop suddenly E. PCSK9 causes...
Name: QUESTIONS 38-40: You perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify genes affecting variation for sun sensitivity and the associated risk of skin cancer, using a sample of 1000 Iceland natives with no evidence of mixed ancestry.

QUESTION 9 5 pe If the characteristic depicted in the pedigree below is rare and subject to complete penetrance, it is likely to be X-linked recessive? 5 6 7 -OOO No, because individuals ll-2 and 11-4 are not affected No, because individuals 111-4 and III-6 are not affected Yes, because individuals III-4 and III-6 are not affected Yes, because only females are affected in generation 11 1. The gene for cystic fibrosis (normal dominant allele CF and abnormal recessive allele...
