Ab initio type of algorithm predicts prokaryotic and eukaryotic promoters and regulatory elements based on characteristic sequences patterns for promoters and regulatory elements.

Ab initio type of algorithm predicts prokaryotic and eukaryotic promoters and regulatory elements based on characteristic sequences patterns for promoters and regulatory elements. Correct Answer True

Some ab initio programs are signal based, relying on characteristic promoter sequences such as the TATA box. Other programs rely on content information such as hexamer frequencies.

Consider the following two C code segment. Y and X are one- and two-dimensional arrays of size n and n × n respectively, where 2 ≤ n ≤ 10. Assume that in both code segments, elements of y are initialized to 0 and each element X[i] [j] of array X is initialized to i + j. Further assume that when stored in main memory all elements of x are in same main memory page frame. Code segment 1:                 //initialize elements of y to 0                 //initialize elements X[i] [j] of X to i+j                       for (i = 0; i < n; i++)                                 Y[i] += X[0] [i]; Code Segment 2:                 //initialize elements of Y to 0                 //initialize elements X[i] [j] of X to i+j                        for (i = 0; i < n; i++)                                 Y[i] += X[i] [0]; Which of the following statements is/are correct?
