Bioinformatics includes all of the following except
a. using computer programs to align DNA sequences.
b. using DNA technology to combine DNA from two different sources in a test tube.
c. developing computer-based tools for genome analysis.
d.using mathematical tools to make sense of biological systems.

Accepted Answer

Hi everyone. The next question asks which of the following is correct regarding bio informatics. So that's a field of study. So let's look at our choices and see which one is correct. We noticed looking over them. We also have a choice for all of the above. So let's be open to the idea that there are more than one correct answers. Choice A says it is an interdisciplinary field. Um Well, bioinformatics does indeed involve um collecting lots of biological data using computers to analyze it. So it involves biology, computer science, information engineering, statistics, math. So it is indeed an interdisciplinary field. A is correct. B says it involves the collection and storage of biological data. Well, yes, it is analyzing and using statistics using computer science um specifically on all of this data that we collect and then need to store using the capacity of computers. So B is also correct. He says it includes the analysis of genome sequence data. Yes. When we had the human genome project generating vast amounts of data trying to sequence the entire human genome as well as um we looked at the genome of many different organisms that just generated vast quantities of data to be analyzed, stored and gone over. So that was a big part of bioinformatics, all the data coming from that. So as we see all of our answers are correct here. So the correct answer to this is d all of the above.
