A researcher is annotating a newly-sequenced chromosome that they constructed from contigs sequenced from a sample of Antarctic ice.  The cell/organism that the chromosome came from is not known, however it yielded a single circular chromosome.  You are asked to run a BLAST search to help this researcher identify the most related organism in GenBank.  What would be the best strategy?
◦ Compare the most unusual portion of this newly-discovered chromosome to al known animal genomes.
◦ Perform many careful one-by-one comparisons between the newly-discovered DNA sequence and species selected from GenBank, one at a time.
◦ Use several ~1000bp portions of the DNA sequence to search for the closest matches from among the entire available database.
◦ Look for a nearly identical match to a very small part (20-40 bp) of the chromosome from all known ice bacteria.
◦ Look for an exact match to the whole chromosome.

Looking at the sun may not only cause headache and distort your vision temporarily, but it can also cause permanent eye damage. Any exposure to sunlight adds to the cumulative effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation on your eyes. UV exposure has been linked to eye disorders such as macular degeneration, solar retinitis, and corneal dystrophies.

A cataract is a clouding of the eyes' natural lens. As we age, some clouding of the lens may occur. The first sign of a cataract is usually blurry vision. Although glasses and other visual aids may at first help a person with cataracts, surgery may become inevitable. Cataract surgery is very successful in restoring vision, and it is the most frequently performed surgery in the United States.
