1. Several live specimens of a new species of giant shipworm, Kuphus 3 polythalamia, have been recently discovered in the Philippines. You got your hands on a small piece of tissue, lysed it, and performed a digestion 600 bp with micrococcal nuclease. The gel to the right represents a very short 450 bp digestion (lane 1), a little longer digestion (lane 2), and a longer yet digestion (lane 3) of the DNĂ. What can you conclude from these results? 300 bp a. Around 120 nucleotides wrap around the nucleosome of the shipworm b. There is an approximately 30 base pairs long linker region between 150 bp nucleosomes c. Micrococcal nuclease recognizes a 4-base-sequence d. Shipworm's chromosomes are about 120 nucleotides long 120 bp e. a and b are both true

The pathogenic strain of the bacterium E. coli (0157:H7) has been shown to be responsible for lethal outbreaks of food poisoning. Bacteria on contaminated food enters the stomach and travels to the large intestine where it causes severe diarrhea. If it enters the bloodstream it causes hemolytic uremic syndrome which results in severe anemia, kidney failure, and in some cases death. The stomach is an extremely acidic environment and to survive the bacteria have a series of enzymes that they produce to protect themselves. This acid stress response is mediated primarily through the gad operon. What is an operon? O a. A series of genes controlled by the same operator O b. A series of genes on the same MRNA molecule O C. A series of genes that all have the same function O d. A series of genes all regulated by the same repressor
