Question:
DNA microarrays have made a huge impact on genomic studies
because they
A) can be used to eliminate the function of any gene in the
genome.
B) can be used to introduce entire genomes into bacterial
cells.
C) allow the expression of many or even all of the genes in
the genome to be compared at once.
D) allow physical maps of the genome to be assembled in a
very short time.
E) dramatically enhance the efficiency of
restriction enzymes.
