Answer:

b. The two bacterial strains have different phenotypes.

Explanation:

In genetics, the trait that is expressed is often referred to as the dominant trait and it can also be expresssed phenotypically.

Since one of the bacteria produces the inducer, it therefore means that bacteria has the dominant strain for the regulatory inducer while the other bacteria might have the strain but since it is not expressed phenotypically, it is as a result not dominant.

Phenotype refers to the physical appearance of an organism as a result of the interaction of its genes with the environment. Examples of phenotypic expresssions are hair colour, skin colour, height, etc.

Forensic scientists are trying to find an exact dna match to a sample left at the scene of a crime. the sample from the crime sc
aleksley [76]

The answer is ‘suspect iii has 900 bp and 260 bp sized DNA fragments’

Forensic science utilizes particular sequences of DNA that are unique to people and are cut differently by restriction enzymes. These  techniques are referred to as Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and the Short Tandem Repeat (STR) Analysis. In this case, there is an exact match on the crime sample and that of the suspect.
