How can someone distribute the DNA in the spots if they are producing a Vicrochip DNA microarray and it has enough space for all of the families that are known? From the following options which is the best choice. They will sort the DNA across the spots in an alphabetical arrangement according to the family so it's easier to read the data from the chip They will randomly and evenly distibute the DNA in the spots to reduce the chance of errors with distibution of the samples when they are applied They will organize the spots of DNA according to most rare viruses to most common viruses so it's easier to know if the sample is normal or abnormal They will place the DNA in spots according to how long the DNA pieces are so that the spots have a gradient of short hybridizing to long hybridizing pieces of DNA None of the above

Question

How can someone distribute the DNA in the spots if they are producing a Vicrochip DNA microarray and it has enough space for all of the families that are known? From the following options which is the best choice.

  1. They will sort the DNA across the spots in an alphabetical arrangement according to the family so it's easier to read the data from the chip
  2. They will randomly and evenly distibute the DNA in the spots to reduce the chance of errors with distibution of the samples when they are applied
  3. They will organize the spots of DNA according to most rare viruses to most common viruses so it's easier to know if the sample is normal or abnormal
  4. They will place the DNA in spots according to how long the DNA pieces are so that the spots have a gradient of short hybridizing to long hybridizing pieces of DNA
  5. None of the above
