The complete question is:
a bacterium is infected with an experimentally constructed bacteriophage composed of the T2 phage protein coat and T4 phage DNA. The new phages produced would have
A) T2 protein and T4 DNA
B) T2 protein and T2 DNA
C) a mixture of DNA and proteins of both phages.
D) T4 protein and T4 DNA
E) T4 protein and T2 DNA
A bacterium infected with an experimentally constructed bacteriophage will give new phages with the virus' DNA and the type of proteins that this DNA encodes.
A bacteriophage is a virus that attaches itself to a bacteria and uses it to replicate itself. Viruses have two main parts, a protein coat and their DNA inside it.
- The experimentally constructed bacteriophage has one type of protein that makes the coat, the T2. This type of protein will allow the virus to attach and infect the bacteria.
- Once the virus attaches itself to the bacteria, it will introduce its DNA, T4 type, and use the bacteria elements to replicate it and create new phages.
- As a result, the new phages will have T4 DNA, and the proteins that the virus synthesizes will be the same type as the DNA.
In conclusion, The new phages produced would have D) T4 protein and T4 DNA.

Explanation:
The picture represents three steups. How can these setups be used to detrmine the strength
of the battery? Explain what does each case represent?
A DNA molecule consists of two stands of nucleotides that wind around each other like a twisted ladder with a phosphate and sugar backbone. The nitrogenous bases are divided into two groups called the pyrimidines and the purines. The pyrimidines include the thymine and cytosine, the purines are adenine and guanine. The nitrogenous bases in the double helix are bound together according to the base pairing rule. Adenine pairs with thymine (A-T) and guanine pairs with cytosine (G-C). The student either drew the base pairing showing adenine and thymine or guanine pairing with cytosine.
SO2: inorganic compound
k: element
Cl2: inorganic elemental molecule
C6H6: organic compound
Answer:
1. Using the map and the minimal knowledge that Liz has at this point, propose three different hypotheses regarding the sudden high mortality of marine iguanas. Record your answers in the worksheet and post your hypotheses to the 03.01 class discussion board before proceeding to the next question. (3 points possible)
Hypotheses One: Iguanas are adapted to hot/warm weather, so the weather changed could have affected them.
Hypotheses Two: There was not enough shelter for the iguanas so they started disappearing.
Hypotheses Three: A new species has come close to where the iguanas live and taken them out.
2. Look at your classmates’ hypotheses on the discussion board. Choose one hypothesis that seems most likely to you. Provide the student name and hypothesis and tell what evidence you would need to support (or refute) it. (3 points possible) Carter Spiers, Hypothesis 1. there was a lot of rain and it washed at the iguanas away. We would have to dive into the water/ ocean and find iguana bodies to be able to prove that this is true.
3. Given what you know at this point about marine iguanas and the abiotic effects of ENSO, develop two possible directions of research that Liz should pursue to understand exactly why the iguanas suffered such a high mortality. Keep in mind that you need to consider indirect effects. While environmental temperature does change metabolic rates of ectotherms, the iguanas are exposed to a wide range of temperatures as they feed and bask on the lava. Direct mortality in response to a temperature change of a couple of degrees is unlikely. (3 points possible)
Possible Research Direction One: The climate event caused a lot more rainfall which then made it very hard for the iguanas to reach their food source.
Possible Research Direction Two: The temperatures raised very high causing the iguanas to absorb a extreme about of extra heat, which eventually made them very lazy and stopped defending their self from predators.
4. Choose one of those directions of research and determine what data you would need to find to support your ideas. (2 points possible) Specific data of the extreme amounts of rainfall.
