Answer:

B There will be blue colonies only

Explanation:

This screen in called the blue white screening.  This is a rapid test that allows scientist to check for their insert of choice in the colonies at a glance. The concept is that where the insert is located the <em>lac Z </em>gene in the vector is interrupted and therefor Xgal, a reporter can be produced. Where there are blue colonies being formed the plasmid has self-ligated and the <em>lac Z</em> gene is not interrupted and the X-gal can be formed rendering a blue color.

What is the phenotype of a plant with the genotype RR
vazorg [7]
To give a direct answer, I’d have to know what gene we were looking at. However, in a general sense, when a genotype has two capital letters, it means that it’s homozygous dominant. Take for example:

R= tall stalk
r= short stalk

The uppercase R is a dominant allele, which means if the plant has the gene with this in it (RR or Rr) then it will have that trait. If it has two lowercase letters (rr) then it will be the recessive trait.

Using this example, RR would be the tall stalk. For whatever your question is, the dominant phenotype would be the answer.
