- Pedigree Analysis Is a Basic Method in Human Genetic: What are the reasons that pedigree charts are used?arrow_forwardWhat does the symbol “N” indicate (see the arrow)? Is this a problem for getting an accurate DNA sequence? The height of the peak in the figure is an indication of the quality of the data, with a high peak correlated with a low error in “base-calling” of perhaps 1 error in 10,000 bases. Is this generally a high-quality DNA sequence for determining the true DNA sequence of the gene studied? How can you tell?
