global alignment score
If you know that sequence (A) was 200bp and (B) was 150bp and they match exactly in a 100bp stretch, and you had this scoring system: match 2, mismatch 1 and gap -1.
a) What would be global alignment score? b) If you did local alignment, do you expect the score to be higher or lower from the one above?
