Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term DNA microarray refers to a microscopic grouping of DNA molecules attached to a solid support mechanism.Silicon chips, glass, or plastic have been used as the solid surfaces to support an array.DNA microarray is sometimes referred to as a DNA chip, or a gene chip.A DNA microarray gives investigators the potential to evaluate gene expression from an entire organism, or even from several organisms.DNA microarrays are often used to analyze transcriptional levels of genes during a particular disease state.
