1. Differentiate the genotype and phenotype of a cell. 2. If deoxyribonucleotides that lack the 3-OH groups are added during the replication process, what do you expect will occur? 3. Why is it more likely that insertions or deletions will be more detrimental to a cell than point mutations? 4. Describe what happens when a nonsense mutation is introduced into the gene encoding transposase within a transposon. 5. A pure culture of an unknown bacterium was streaked onto plates of a variety of media. You notice that the colony morphology is strikingly different on plates of minimal media with glucose compared to that seen on trypticase soy agar plates. How can you explain these differences in colony morphology?
