Multiple Choice

Which of the following reasons best explains why sequencing an entire genome, such as that of C. elegans, a nematode, is important for genetic research?

A) It allows researchers to use the sequence to build a "better" nematode, which is resistant to disease.
B) It allows research on a group of organisms we do not usually care much about.
C) A sequence that is found to have a particular function in the nematode is likely to have a closely related function in vertebrates.
D) A sequence that is found to have no introns in the nematode genome is likely to have acquired the introns from vertebrates.
