In the analysis of microarray data–If replicated datasets are available, rigorous statistical tests such as t-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA) can be performed to test the null hypothesis that a given data point is not significantly different from the mean of the data distribution.(a) True(b) FalseThis question was posed to me in examination.My question is from Microarray-Based Approaches topic in portion Functional Genomics & Proteomics of Bioinformatics

Answer»

The correct choice is (a) True

To explain: For such TESTS, it is common to use a P-value cutoff of .05, which MEANS a confidence level of 95% to distinguish the data groups. This level also corresponds to a GENE expression level with two standard deviations from the MEAN of distribution.
