Question 12

+3 marksOne or more correct options

Based on the above data, answer the given subquestions.

We say a person S does not have the disease X (i.e., S is healthy) if the sample read collected (from S) does not have any mutation. The options given below are the reads collected from different individuals. Match the reads with the suffix tree to identify which among these individuals suffer from the disease? Choose all the options that apply.
