Course: Biomedical Technician (14900) > Section: Performing Molecular Biology Techniques

Use should include consulting several Internet databases (or purchased software) and comparing the results.

Process/Skill Questions:

- Why is it important to use databases when comparing DNA?
- Why is there more to be learned about the nucleotides and genetic diseases than what is already known? What is the next step?
- Why does it automatically mean someone will acquire a disease if that person has a specific genetic mutation?
