Question 1

+2 marksNumerical answer

Consider a system of 6 genes that regulate each other as follows:

  • G1G_1 regulates G2G_2, G3G_3 and G4G_4.
  • G5G_5 is regulated by G3G_3 and G2G_2.
  • G2G_2 regulates G3G_3.
  • G3G_3 regulates G4G_4.
  • G6G_6 is regulated by G4G_4.

If we need 1 Byte to store a boolean value (i.e., 0 or 1), then how many Bytes are required to store the adjacency matrix of the underlying gene regulatory network?
