- Why is there a blue scale?arrow_forwardSeveral cell culture lines of epithelial cells, called “Cell Line A, B, or C,” are incubated with 104 infectious particles of influenza virus, and viral titers in the culture media are measured 2 days later. Looking at the results of this experiment, it is apparent that the three lines do not all show the same response to the virus. To investigate these differences, mixing experiments are performed, where cells from two different cell lines are mixed together at a 1:1 ratio before the Influenza infection. Based on the results shown in the figure below, propose an explanation for these data.arrow_forwardI have seen that this was answered as C, Why is the answer C, how is that not evidence of it being genetic? Shouldnt it be none of the above?
