D. Once a region of DNA in E. coli O157:H7 were identified that has no counterpart in E. coli, would you know (in principle) how to find its base composition?

E. How comfortable are you in using a Chi-squared test to compare base compositions, as described in Math Minute 2.3? 

F. How comfortable are with what Chi-squared tests really mean?
