8. Which of the following is a false statement? A Most SNPs have only two alleles B Microsatellites and minisatellites usually have many alleles C Microsatellites are often used as genetic markers in pedigree-based linkage studies D. SNPs are often used for genetic finger printing of forensic DNA samples E. SNPs are often used as genetic markers in genomewide association stud ies 9. Which of the following statements is false? A Haplotypes are ordered sequences of genotypes B. Haplotypes are ordered sequences of alleles C. There are fewer haplotypes in human populations than the theoretical maximum D. The paucity of haplotypes in human populations reflects the relative youth these populations E The linkage disequilibrium constant D' provides a quantitative measure for the tendency of certain alleles to be inherited together from generation to generation 10. Which of the following statements is false? A. The mathematical equation for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium(hwE)is: p2 2pq B. The mathematical equation for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium(hWe)is: p 2pq C The HWE equation is useful for estimating the frequency of heterozygous carriers of a mutation that causes a recessive mendelian disorder D. Assumptions that must be met for alleles to be in HWE include: large population, random mating. no new mutations. 2 alleles 11. Which of the following is a false statement? A. Somatic cells each contain roughly 200-2000 mitochondria B Mitochondria carry out many important cellular functions, including the production of ATP, oxidation of fatty acids, regulation of intracellular Ca2+ levels and regulation C. Mitochondria are also the source of beneficial free rad icals D Sperm contain approximately 100 mitochondria and oocytes approximately 100.000 mitochondria E. All of our cells contain mitochondria inherited exclusively from our mother 12. Which of the following cannot be explained by abnormal recombination8. Which of the following is a false statement?
