Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Satellite DNA sequences of about 170 base pairs in length are present in tandem arrays of up to 1 million base pairs, and are found mainly in centromere regions. These DNA sequences are called alphoid families. Telomeres are the protective caps at the ends of chromosomes, euchromatic regions are areas of active gene expression in the genome, primers are short nucleotide sequences used in DNA replication and PCR, and telomere-associated sequences are DNA sequences that interact with telomeres. None of these options accurately describe the identified DNA sequences.
