Mutations rII1 and rII2 are known to fall into the rIIA and rIIB cistrons (genes) respectively. Cells of E. coli B are infected

simultaneously with phage strains rII1 and rII2 at a high moi. The progeny phage are collected and used to infect cells of E. coli K. This infection is also carried out at a high m.o.i., and the resulting phage are collected. These progeny are diluted and plated on both E. coli B and E. coli K. Do you expect more plaques on strain B, on strain K, an equal amount on both or is it impossible to tell?
A. E. coli B
B. E. coli K
C. Equal on both
D. Can't tell

Answer:

the answer is A. E. coli B

Explanation:

The multiplicity of infection (MOI) refers to the ratio between the numbers of viruses used to infect <em>E. coli</em> cells and the numbers of these <em>E. coli </em>cells. Benzer carried out several experiments in order to define the gene in regard to function. Benzer observed that <em>E. coli </em>strains with point mutations could be classified into two (2) complementary classes regarding coinfection using the restrictive strain as the host. With regard to his experiments, Benzer observed that rII1 and rII2 mutants (rapid lysis mutants) are complementary when they produce progeny after coinfect E. coli K (where neither mutant can lyse the host by itself). The rII group of mutants studied by Benzer does not produce plaques on <em>E. coli</em> K strains that carry phage λ (lysogenic for λ), but they produce plaques on <em>E. coli</em> B strains. This study showed that rIIA and rIIB are different genes and/or cistrons in the rII region.

Which of these physical factors most shapes the characteristics of a ecosystem? A) soil type B) longitude C) temperature and rai
Nezavi [6.7K]
I believe it is temperature or rainfall. All of the factors are improtant but temperature comes first, cuz the temperature can also determine the air, and soil doesn't make a difference. Longitude doesn't have to do with an ecosystem.

The graphic shows the citric acid cycle. A diagram of the citric acid cycle is shown. Acetyl C o A enters the citric acid cycle
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

It enters the citric acid cycle and associates with a 4-carbon molecule, forming citric acid, and then through redox reactions regenerates the 4-carbon molecule.

Explanation:

Acetyl-CoA(2C) associates with oxalacetate(4C) to form citric acid(6C). Then through redox reactions, CO2 molecules result from decarboxylation (COOH becomes R-(R1)CH-R2). And through dehydrogenation H2 molecules are incorporated in NADH+ in FADH2, resulting in the 4-carbon molecule at the beginning (oxalacetate). That's why it's called a cycle(Kreb's cycle or citric acid cycle)
