Question
Chapter 26.3, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The advantages and disadvantages of the lytic and lysogenic cycle of Φx174 virus compared with the Pf1 phage.
Introduction: The lytic and lysogenic cycles are the cycles of viral replication. The lytic cycle leads to the lysis of the host cell whereas the lysogenic cycle does not lead to the lysis of the host cell.

- 24) Use the following information to answer the question below. Researchers studying a small milkweed population note that some plants produce a toxin and other plants do not. They identify the gene responsible for toxin production. The dominant allele (T) codes for an enzyme that makes the toxin, and the recessive allele (t) codes for a nonfunctional enzyme that cannot produce the toxin. Heterozygotes produce an intermediate amount of toxin. The genotypes of all individuals in the population are determined (see table) and used to determine the actual allele frequencies in the population. TT 0.49 Tt 0.42 tt 0.09 Refer to the table above. Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? A) Yes. C) No; there are more homozygotes than expected. B) No; there are more heterozygotes than expected.
