Which of the following statements about genome-wide associationstudies (GWAS) is false?
A. GWAS can be used even if more than one gene can cause thedisease of interest. B. Studies using GWAS only examine SNPs that occur very rarely(<0.001%) in the population, as those SNPs are most likely tocause disease. C. GWAS use SNPs to compare populations of people with diseaseand people without disease to look for SNPs more likely to bepresent in those with disease. D. Sometimes GWAS will identify SNPs that are associated with adisease but these SNPs do not affect the gene product of the genethat causes the disease.
