Please assign a sex type to each strain 1-8 at the bottom not to the table. 

Four E. coli strains of genotype atb¯ are labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. Four strains of genotype a¯b* are labeled 5, 6, 7, and 8. The two
genotypes are mixed in all possible combinations and, after incubation, are plated to determine the frequency of a*b+
recombinants.
The following results are obtained, where M=many recombinants, L=low number of recombinants, and 0=no recombinants:
