Pedigrees help geneticists understand how traits are inherited between generations. Red-green color blindness is a sex-linked di

sorder that is determined by a recessive allele on the X chromosome.

If Brian has a son who is color-blind, what is known about the genotype of the son's mother?
She must have at least one allele for color blindness.
She must have two alleles for color blindness.
She cannot be homozygous recessive for the gene for color blindness.
She cannot be a heterozygous carrier of the gene for color blindness.

Red/green color blindness is passed down from mother to son and so we can conclude that the last two statements are wrong. Which are that "She cannot be homozygous recessive for the gene for color blindness" and "she cannot be a heterozygous carrier of the gene for color blindness "From the information proved we know that the mother must have at least one allele for color blindness.

When an E. coli cell is infected by multiple phages, what route of infection (lytic or lysogenic) will the phages take? Why?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

When an E.coli cell is infected by multiple phages,they will take either lytic or lysogenic pathway.

Explanation:

When lambda phage bacteriophage infects an E.coli,it can either undergo lytic cell growth and lyse the host cell or enter lysogenic pathway.

The operator region of lac operon in E.coli contain single repressor binding site whereas the lambda operators O_{L} and O_{R}  each contains 3 repressor binding sites (O_{L_1} ,    O_{L_2},O_{L_3} and O_{R_1},O_{R_2},O_{R_3})  that are differently occupied under different conditions.

The differential affinity of lambda repressor for the three binding sites in these operators play an important role in the maintenance of lysogenic state of lambda prophage in E.coli.

The lytic development occurs in cells infected with lambda phage that carry  C_1 gene.

In contrast,lysogeny will occur in bacteria that infected with lambda phage that harbor a deletion of Cro gene.
