Best answer

The correct choice is (b) False

To explain I would say: TEs (Transposable Elements) can comprise one-half or more of the genome sequence. Eukaryotic genomes comprise classes of repeated elements, including tandem repeats present in centromeres and telomeres, dispersed tandem repeats (minisatellites and macrosatellites), and interdispersed TEs.

In protein/domain analysis, each protein in the predicted proteome is again used as a query of a curated protein sequence database such as ____ in order to locate similar domains and sequences. To find orthologs, very low E value scores (E<10<20) for the alignment score and an alignment that includes 60–80% of the query sequence are generally required in order to avoid matches to paralogs.
