Based on the Table of Average Intron Frequency Given Below

Question 78

Multiple Choice

Based on the table of average intron frequency given below, predict the relative order of genome size for these four eukaryotic organisms.  Organism  Average Intron Frequency  Cryptosporidium parvum 0 Plasmodium falciparum 1 Arabidopsis thaliana 5 Homo sapiens 8\begin{array}{lc}\text { Organism } & \text { Average Intron Frequency } \\\hline \text { Cryptosporidium parvum } & 0 \\\text { Plasmodium falciparum } & 1 \\\text { Arabidopsis thaliana } & 5 \\\text { Homo sapiens } & 8\end{array}


A) Homo sapiens > Arabidopsis thaliana > Plasmodium falciparum > Cryptosporidium parvum
B) Cryptosporidium parvum > Plasmodium falciparum > Arabidopsis thaliana > Homo sapiens
C) Homo sapiens > Cryptosporidium parvum > Plasmodium falciparum > Arabidopsis thaliana
