Summary Introduction

a.

To draw:

The map that shows relative positions of markers and origins of transfer in HfrA and HfrB strains and also the distance between these markers.

Introduction:

Genetic markers are the genes that are identifiable through phenotypic variants. These markers serve as a point of reference in deciding whether the progeny is the result of recombination.

Summary Introduction

b.

To draw:

The order of the genes based on the given cotransduction data.

Introduction:

Cotransduction refers to the transfer of different bacterial genes together in one phage by transduction process.

Summary Introduction

c.

To determine:

The way an individual increases the chances of mapping gly gene relative to at least some of the other markers and the composition of the medium that would be used to map gly.

Introduction:

Tranductants refer to the cells resulting from the gene transfer. Transduction process is mainly mediated by bacteriophages.

Awnser these Discussion Questions Answer these discussion questions and submit them as part of your lab report. Part A: The Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Graph the volume of oxygen produced against the temperature of the solution. How is the oxygen production in 30 seconds related to the rate of the reaction? At what temperature is the rate of reaction the highest? Lowest? Explain. Why might the enzyme activity decrease at very high temperatures? Why might a high fever be dangerous to humans? What is the optimal temperature for enzymes in the human body? Part B: The Effect of pH on Enzyme Activity Graph the volume of oxygen produced against the pH of the solution. At what pH is the rate of reaction the highest? Lowest? Explain. Why does changing the pH affect the enzyme activity? Research the enzyme catalase. What is its function in the human body? What is the optimal pH for the following enzymes found in the human body? Explain. (catalase, lipase (in your stomach),…
Anwser these Discussion Questions: Part One Why were the plants kept in the dark prior to the experiment? Why is this important? Why is it important to boil the leaf? Explain why it was necessary to use boiling alcohol? What is the purpose of the iodine? Part Two What was the purpose of keeping the leaf in the dark and then covering it with a cardboard cut-out? What conclusions can you draw from this part of the lab? Part Three 7. In this experiment what was the purpose of adding the soda lime? 8. Why was a sealed bag placed around each plant? 9. What happened in the control plants? 10. What was the result on photosynthesis? Part Four 11. Why was a variegated leaf used in this experiment? !2. What conclusions can you draw about starch production in a variegated leaf?
How did the color differences between the two bacterial species you used in this experiment help you determine if the streak plate method you performed was successful?
