To maintain the accuracy of the genome sequence, the dna should not be cut into small pieces before sequencing. a) true b) false

True. In sequencing, the first few sequences and the last few sequences may not accurately sequenced hence cutting DNA into smaller pieces would result in a larger portion of DNA inaccurately sequenced than if a longer sequence of DNA was sequenced with the sequence of interest in the middle.

the types of mutations include: missense mutation: this type of mutation is a change in one dna base pair that results in the substitution of one amino acid for another in the protein made by a gene. nonsense mutation: a nonsense mutation is also a change in one dna base pair.
