Annotation involves identifying genes and gene-regulatory sequences in a genome. List and describe characteristics of a genome that are hallmarks for identifying genes in an unknown sequence. What characteristics would you look for in a prokaryotic genome? A eukaryotic genome?

Assume that the node of a linked list is in the usual info-link form with the info of the type int. (list and ptr are pointers of type nodeType.) The following code creates a linked list.

ptr = new nodeType;
ptr->info = 16;
list = new nodeType;
list->info = 25;
list->link = ptr;
ptr = new nodeType;
ptr->info = 12;
ptr->link = nullptr;
list->link->link = ptr;

Use the linked list created by this code to answer the following questions. (These questions are independent of each other.) Declare additional pointers if you need them.

• Which pointer points to the first node of the linked list?

Match given key term to the appropriate definition.

What is the determining factor for the transcription of structural genes of the trp operon?

T F The programmer must know in advance how many nodes will be needed in a linked list.

Write a void function that takes a linked list of integers and reverses the order of its nodes. The function will have one call-by-reference parameter that is a pointer to the head of the list. After the function is called, this pointer will point to the head of a linked list that has the same nodes as the original list, but in the reverse of the order they had in the original list. Note that your function will neither create nor destroy any nodes. It will simply rearrange nodes. Place your function in a suitable test program.

How do genes determine the traits of an organism? Explain in detail.

Multiple genes are involved, and the distribution resembles a bell-shaped curve.
