Document Summary

Job: a grouping of related duties, tasks and behaviors performed by one or more individuals, namely jobholders. Position: the number of individuals who are performing the duties, tasks and behaviours required by a specific job. Job analysis: the analysis of subdivided work in the organization, both at the level of the individual job and for the entire flow of the production process. Job description (job specification) the written outcomes (documents) produced by the job analysis process: the job description emphasizes the duties or tasks to be carried out on the job. Job specifications emphasize identifying the competencies the jobholder must possess to be a successful performer in the specified job. Knowledge: body of information, usually of a factual or procedural nature, that allows an individual to perform a task successfully. Skill: individual"s level of proficiency or competency in performing a specific task. Level of competency is typically expressed in numerical terms.

Southern blot analysis of the three genotypes found at the Î²-globin locus revealed a distinctive pattern of RFLP variation among the genotypes, while northern blotting reveals no difference. What results would you expect from native electrophoresis of the protein from the three Î²-globin genotypes?

(a) A western blot analysis performed on protein from individuals with the three Î²-globin genotypes shows that Î²AÎ²A individuals have a single protein band, whereas Î²SÎ²S individuals have no protein. Î²AÎ²S heterozygotes have half as much protein as a homozygous individual.

(b) A western blot analysis performed on protein from individuals with the three Î²-globin genotypes detects a single protein band, so all genotypes look identical by western blotting.

(c) When a western blot analysis is performed on protein from individuals with the three Î²-globin genotypes, Î²AÎ²A and Î²SÎ²S individuals each have one distinct band, whereas Î²AÎ²S individuals have both bands.

(d) A western blot analysis performed on protein from individuals with the three Î²-globin genotypes looks very similar to the Southern blot results. Î²AÎ²A individuals have two bands, Î²SÎ²S individuals have one band, and Î²AÎ²S individuals have all three bands.

Answer is C because western blotting uses proteins.

Please explain the northern, southern, and western blots and why a, b, and d were incorrect. Use drawings when necessary.
