Question

Repetitive DNA makes up more than half of the human genome. Can you identify which of the following statements are true and which are false? Place "True" or "False" at the end of each statement. True False Reset Help Alu elements are SINEs that typically encode an important human protein, the restriction endonuclease Alu 1. The most prominent example of LINEs in humans are L1 elements. The number VNTRs of each specific sequence at each location varies from one individual to the next. The number of STRs present at any site are highly conserved between individuals. The human genome contains mobile genetic elements called retrotransposons that encode reverse transcriptase to catalyze transposition.
