A study of identity theft looked at how well consumers protect themselves from this increasingly prevalent crime. The behaviors of 63 college students were compared with the behaviors of 58 non students. One of the questions was "When asked to create a password, I have used either my mother's maiden name, or my pet's name, or my birth date, or the last four digits of my social security number, or a series of consecutive numbers." For the students, 24 agreed with this statement while 29 of the non students agreed.

A competing commercial effort to sequence the human genome was initiated by the company Celera in 1997. How was their approach different from the Human Genome Project?

  • A. Libraries of individual chromosomes were generated and overlapping clones were isolated before sequencing.
  • B. They used sequence tagged sites (STS) and expression sequence tags (EST) to order contigs prior to sequencing.
  • C. They sequenced the entire genome from one female donor.
  • D. They generated overlapping clones from YAC and BAC libraries that were identified by hybridization and organized into long contiguous stretches called contigs.
  • E. They used a whole-genome shotgun sequencing method that eliminates the step of assembling a physical map of the genome.
