Within a narrow range of temperatures, S. marcescens produces a red pigment called prodigiosin. Although the ultimate purpose of

the pigment is a mystery, it is known that at least 10 enzymes are required for its production. If one of these enzymes is rendered nonfunctional, how would you expect the appearance of the bacteria to change?

Answer:

Either the color will disappear or the brightness of the color will reduce as compared to the brightness in normal case.  

Explanation:

Non diffusible red pigment known as prodigiosin is a characteristics of S. Marcescens. Since, the red pigment is dependent on least 10 enzymes, it is clear that the pH and temperature range must be adequate for these enzymes to be functional. The optimum condition for pigment formation is 30 degree temperature and alkaline medium.

If any of the 10 enzymes become non-functional, the chances of attaining normal bright red color are not possible. Either the color will disappear or the brightness of the color will reduce as compared to the brightness in normal case.

How does shotgun cloning differ from the clone-by-clone method?.
kondor19780726 [428]

No genetic or physical maps of the genome are needed to begin shotgun cloning  and is much faster.

<h3>What is Shotgun cloning?</h3>

This is a method to duplicate genomic DNA in which it is smashed into small pieces and the fragments are then taken together and cloned into a vector.

This type of cloning however is faster as there are no genetic or physical maps needed to begin the process.

wariber [46]

Answer:

one normal girl

One normal boy

One carrier girl

One colour blind boy

Explanation:

Haemophilia is a sex linked feature as it is transmitted with the chromosomes determining sex.

In humans,the male has XY and the female has XX.the Y chromosome is usually genetically empty.so as mall received his Y chromosomes from his father,he cannot inherit his father's sex linked traits .but women can as they receive and X chromosomes from their fathers.so a cross between a carrier woman Cc and a normal man C result in;

XX--CC

XX--Cc

XY--C

XY--c
