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
WHAT IF? If a plant has the double mutation ctr andein, what is its triple-response phenotype? Explain youranswer.

- Pick two. A species of insect that lives solely on pinesap was found to contain a bacterial symbiont. Genome sequencing of both the host and the symbiont revealed that the symbiont lacked many genes required for energy production, and the host lacked genes for biosynthesis of several essential amino acids. What are the two most likely mechanisms (or, processes) that caused the loss of these genes in each partner? Variable hypermutation rate Transduction Horizontal gene transfer Natural selection Horizontal pathogenesis Coevolution Selective random driftarrow_forwardExperiment: In this activity yo Page 5 ze the results of experiments that investigate nutritional requirement of several mutant strains of yeast. The mutations in these strains cause a nutritional requirement for an amino acid, such that the strains will not grow in media that lack one specific amino acid. Any mutant that has a nutritional requirement is called an auxotroph, and is incapable of growing in a "minimal medium" containing only a carbon source (e.g., glucose), a simple nitrogen source (e.g., ammonium sulfate), and various salts and minerals. Such strains can be supported on a medium supplemented with only the missing nutrient or on a "rich" medium that contains amino acids, vitamins, nitrogenous bases, etc. (often in the form of an extract from yeast). The wild-type individual that can synthesize the metabolic component is a prototroph, and is capable of growth on minimal medium. The mutant strains in this activity are unable to synthesize tryptophan, lysine, or histidine;…arrow_forwardPls help ASAParrow_forward
