Your ASSIGMENT for this week is to apply these scoring concepts to the two short DNA sequences below. We will use a lowest-score-is-best approach, with a match score of 0, a mismatch score of 1, a gap cost of 5, and a gap-extension cost of 1. Calculate the scores for the three alignments shown below. Note that the periods in the second sequence of each alignment indicates a match to the first sequence at that position. This is a commonly used convention in alignments that allows you to quickly see where sequences differ. The dashes, of course, represent gaps.Tell me the scores and identify which of the 3 alignments: top, middle, or bottom, is best for the scoring scheme proposed.
