Answer:
The Laura tried to grow micro-organisms in culture broth medium in Petri-plates but the microbial growth was not observed even on the fourth day of culture which could be due to:
1. Laura could have not provided the correct broth medium maintaining the with pH and salt concentrations.
2. Microorganisms did not get optimal growth conditions.
3. The bacterial source could have died after the collection which could have lysed after their death and thus no longer visible.

Answer:
Pleiotropy
Explanation:
Pleiotropy is a genetic condition in which a single gene conditions the expression of multiple phenotype. There are different types of pleiotropy depending on the underlining mechanism
- <em>gene pleiotropy</em>
- <em>developmental pleiotropy</em>
- <em>selectional pleiotropy</em>
- <em>antagonistic pleiotropy </em>
<em>Phenylketonuria is a disease characterized by increased level of amino acid phenylalanine in the blood. It caused by mutation to the gene responsible for breaking down phenylalanine in the blood. Elevated level of phenylalanine causes other issues such as mental problems, urine coloration and reduction in skin pigmentation. This is a clear case of pleiotropy.</em>
