WHAT IF? As a cell begins the process of dividing, itschromosomes become shorter, thicker, and individuallyvisible in an LM (light micrograph). Explain what is happening at the molecular level.
Q6. The bacterium Rhizobium radiobacter is well known to biologists because it has the rather astonishing ability to cause natural genetic engineering. That is, several genes are moved from the bacterial cells directly into the nucleus of cells of many higher plant species. Expression of these transferred genes in the infected plants stimulates cell division, creating a mass of undifferentiated tissue.
Which of the following signals on these transferred genes could be recognized in the plant host cell but not in the original Rhizobium cell?
“TATA” box
transcription terminator hairpin loop
intron splice signals
SD box
A. 1, 2 and 3
B. 1 and 3
C. 2 and 4
D. 4 only
E. All of 1, 2, 3 and 4
