A PCR-RFLP analysis was performed to identify PTC tasters in a population. The taster allele sequence included a palindromic sequence recognized by a restriction enzyme, whereas the non-taster allele did not due to a SNP in the sequence. The gel shows the results of the analysis from 100 individuals. The numbers above the gel lanes represent the number of individuals with each genotype. 33 52 15 Based on the results from the gel, what is the frequency of the taster allele in this population? 0.0387 0.41 0.33 0.685 0.59 0.52 0.315 0.0574 Screenshot

Microbial Taxonomy

Taxonomy is the science of naming, classifying, and describing organisms. The taxonomy will include all the plants, microorganisms, and animals on this planet. Carl Linnaeus coined the taxonomy term. He is known as the father of taxonomy. Microbial taxonomy is a criterion of grouping microorganisms into groups based on their similarities and past relatedness. Microorganisms belonging to the same group are differentiated from the others via grouping into categories. This differentiation makes the study of microorganisms easy. There are different types of microbial taxonomies like Numerical and Molecular taxonomy. The study of microorganisms is known as microbiology. Microbiology is a broad term that takes into account microbial cultures, taxonomic studies, evolutionary relationships. Microbial interaction and diversity are huge data that needs to be compiled under the subject of microbiology. Microbiology covers various organisms like bacteria, fungi, algae, plants, animals, etc.
