Answer/Explanation:

An important way of selecting for bacteria carrying specific recombinant DNA is to add a resistance gene (such as antibiotic resistance) to your gene of interest. That means that any bacteria that carry your DNA will be resistant to a specific antibiotic (in this case streptomycin). Therefore, you can grow your bacteria on plates with streptomycin, and in theory, the bacteria will be unable to grow if they don't have the resistance gene and your gene of interest.

Here, strain A does not grow on streptomycin plates, but strain B now has 100 colonies. This suggests strain B can grow on streptomycin, meaning it is resistant.

Strain B is therefore the streptomycin resistant master plate strain.

ch4aika [34]

Answer: There are few ‘laws’ in science. Those ‘laws’ are so named for historical reasons, but they are theoretical in nature. They set out what happens when a theory is applied in practice. A theory is simply the best explanation we have for understanding why some process takes place and predicting what the result will be.

Explanation: Anyone who describes something as “just a theory” does not understand what a theory is. Laws are arbitrary human rules. Theories are severely tested and re-tested explanations of why things happen in the real physical world and can be used to make predictions about outcomes.

Some would say that theories are about why something happens and laws (in science) describe what happens. But this simply makes a scientific ‘law’ a subset of a scientific theory, explaining how to make predictions.
