A student has forgotten which antibiotic plasmid she used in her E. coli transformation. It could have been kanamycin, ampicillin, or tetracycline. She decides to make up a special set of plates to determine the type of antibiotic used. The plates below show the results of the test. Plate IV. LB agar Plate I. LB agar with kanamycin Plate II. LB agar with ampicillin Plate III. LB agar with tetracycline 13. Which antibiotic plasmid has been used? a. kanamycin c. tetracycline b. ampicillin 14. What is the explanation for these results? a. Plates I and Il each contain a plasmid that is resistant to that antibiotic. b. Plate III has antibiotic agar, but E. coli that has been transformed to be resistant to tetracycline can grow. c. Plate IV has no antibiotic. d. There are no tetracycline-resistant cells on Plate II.

DNA can be seen in visible light DNA can be seen without staining in visible light Ethidium bromide-stained DNA can be seen in visible light Ethidium bromide-stained DNA can be seen under exposure to UV light Please explain the answer properly and kindly relate to the NCERT Bio XII chapter 11.
The nose swab PCR test for COVID-19 is an accurate and reliable test for diagnosing COVID-19. A positive test most likely means an individual has COVID-19. Whereas a negative test means an individual probably did not have COVID-19 at the time of the test. Please use what you have learned in this lab to justify this statement.
A probe is a full section of DNA or RNA that has been labeled with a tracer. True False
A student is trying to add 9.0 pmol of primer mix to a 20.0 µL PCR. The primer mix is at a concentration of 50.0 µM, and the student determines that a serial dilution is required because directly adding the primer mix would require a volume less than 1.00 µL. The student takes 1.40 µL of the primer mix stock and mixes it with 25.0 µL of ultrapure H2O. Calculate the volume (in µL) of the intermediate solution required to add the correct amount of primer mix to the PCR.

During the incubation step of the plaque assay, viral replication leads to host cell lysis. This allows the freshly-released virions to diffuse through the media and infect new hosts. The amount of agar added to the top agar is 7 g per liter rather than the 16 g of agar per liter for most solid media, including the bottom agar used in this assay. How would it change the plaque assay results if bottom agar was used in place of the top agar in this assay? a- The diameter of the plaques would be smaller. b- The diameter of the plaques would not change. c- The diameter of the plaques would be larger. (2) A researcher measured the viral titer of PhiX174 in fish tank water, untreated sewage water, and unpasteurized apple juice. Which sample do you predict will have the highest titer on this page? a- Fish tank water b- Unpasteurized apple juice c- Untreated sewage water
