Answer:
28 × 10⁶ colonies/ml
Explanation:
Let C be the concentration of bacterial in the initial stock. When it is diluted by a factor of 10⁶, the new concentration is C' = C/10⁶.
When 2 ml of this concentration is spread on a Petri dish of solidified media, 56 colonies were produced. The number of colonies, n after spreading the 2 ml of C' is C' × 2 ml = 2C' = 2C/10⁶.
So, n = 2C/10⁶.
Since the number of colonies after spreading on a Petri dish of solidified media is 56, n = 56 colonies.
So, 2C/10⁶ = 56
Making C subject of the formula, we have
C = 56 × 10⁶/2
C = 28 × 10⁶ colonies/ml
So, the initial concentration of bacteria is 28 × 10⁶ colonies/ml

The ribosomes’s primary function in both prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells is to
A. Build proteins according to the cell’s DNA instruction
B. Create RNA
C. Replicate DNA and RNA
D. Produce amino acids to be used to make tissues
_________ is required so that group of cells called tissues may have different function.
A. Cell interaction
B. Cell differentiation
C. Cell Proliferation
D. Cell Movement
Answer:
first A then B
Explanation:
The ribosomes's primary function in both the prokaryotic cells and the eukaryotic cells is to build proteins according to the cell's DNA instruction. Cell differentiation is required so that groups of cells called tissues may have different function. Thus, the correct options for 1 and 2 are A and B, respectively.
What are Ribosomes?A ribosome is the cellular machinery which is responsible for the production of proteins in a cell. There are many ribosomes in each cell, each of these ribosomes are made up of two subunits- one large and one small subunit. These two subunits lock around the messenger RNA (mRNA) and then travel along the length of the messenger RNA molecule by reading each of the three-letter codons in the mRNA molecule.
Cell differentiation is the process which is required so that the group of cells called as tissues may have different functions. Cell differentiation results into formation of different cells and organs in the body.
Therefore, the correct options for 1 and 2 are A and B, respectively.

In a certain breed of dog, the alleles B and b determine black and brown coats respectively. However, the allele Q of a gene on a separate chromosome is epistatic to the B and b color alleles resulting in a gray coat (q has no effect on color). If animals of genotype B/b ; Q/q are intercrossed, what phenotypic ratio is expected in the progeny
Answer:
12 gray , 3 black, 1 brown
Explanation:
If Q allele of a gene on a separate chromosomes is epistatic to the B (black) and b (brown) color alleles, in cross between two animals with genotypes BbQq produces 12 gray coat color, 3 black coat color and 1 brown coat color animals.
BbQq x BbQq
Gray coat Gray coat
BQ Bq bQ bq
BQ BBQQ(gray) BBQq(gray) BbQQ(gray) BbQq(gray)
Bq BBQq(gray) BBqq(Black) BbQq(gray) Bbqq(Black)
bQ BbQQ(gray) BbQq(gray) bbQQ(gray) bbQq(gray)
bq BbQq(Gray) Bbqq(Black) bbQq(gray) bbqq(brown)
So the phenotypic ratio is Gray : Black : Brown

A biologist discovered a new animal. Upon studying its embryonic development, she observed radial cleavage with the blastopore developing into an anus. This animal was categorized as a parazoan. pseudocoelomate. deuterostome. protostome. radiata.
Answer:
The correct answer is ''deuterostome''.
Explanation:
Deuterostomes are a superphylum of animals in which the anus is formed in or near the blastopore area in the developing embryo, and the mouth is secondarily formed elsewhere. The oral apparatus that these adult animals enjoy does not come from the embryo's blastopore. Instead it is a new formation. They enter the Bilateria classification, where species that enjoy bilateral symmetry are incorporated. In deuterostomes, the primary phases of division occur in parallel to the axis between the tips. That is, the segmentation they have is radial when the embryo is in state 1 with four cells.
Which statement about the genetic code is false?
A. There is no punctuation or spacing between codons.
B. Codons are composed of sets of three nucleotides.
C. Every amino acid is specified by a single codon.
D. The genetic code is almost universal, but not quite.
The statement 'every amino acid is specified by a single codon' about the genetic code is FALSE (Option C).
The genetic code refers to the process by which the heritable information is passed from the DNA sequence to RNA during transcription, and then from RNA to protein during translation.The genetic code is said to be redundant because there are amino acids that can be encoded by more than one codon.For example, the amino acid leucine can be specified by four different codons (CUU, CUC, CUA, and CUG).In conclusion, the statement 'every amino acid is specified by a single codon' about the genetic code is FALSE (Option C).

A DNA fragment is introduced into the lacZ gene of a plasmid, which also contains an ampicillin resistance gene. What is the appearance of bacteria transformed with this plasmid if they are spread on plates containing ampicillin and X-gal
Answer: White colonies that are resistant to ampicillin.
Explanation:
The lac operon is an operon required for the metabolism of lactose in enteric bacteria such as Escherichia coli . It has three structural genes, a promoter, an operator and a regulator, all regulated by the availability of glucose and lactose. The lac repressor, a protein, senses lactose and blocks transcription of this operon. It acts as a repressor when lactose is present. A catabolite-activating protein (CAP), on the other hand, acts as a glucose sensor. The bacterium should express the lac operon only when lactose is available and glucose is not available. Thus, genes can always be transcribed, except when the Lac repressor protein is bound to the operon region, for which it has a high affinity (i.e. in the absence of lactose), where the Lac repressor protein maintains its high affinity for the operon region, preventing RNA polymerase from transcribing the structural genes. Thus, the system remains closed with consequent energy savings for the bacterium. In the presence of lactose, it binds to the Lac repressor protein and generates a conformational change that decreases its affinity for the operator region. Thus, the operator region is left free, RNA polymerase can freely transcribe the structural genes and the synthesized β-galactosidase (an enzyme) can degrade lactose to glucose plus galactose for energy.
Thus, the lac z gene encodes the enzyme β-galactosidase, which catalyzes the hydrolysis reaction of lactose to glucose and galactose. In gene cloning experiments, a compound called X-gal is used as an indicator of cells expressing the β-galactosidase enzyme. X-gal is hydrolyzed by the enzyme to galactose and another compound that is oxidized giving an insoluble blue compound. Thus, if X-gal and a β-galactosidase inducer are dissolved in the medium of a culture plate where the transformed bacteria is found, colonies grown on the plate that possess a functional lac z gene (either because they were not transformed by the plasmid, or if they were but the plasmid does not have the cloned fragment or gene that disrupts the lac z gene) can be clearly distinguished by their blue coloration. If they have another gene inserted interrupting the lac z gene, they will not be able to produce the enzyme that degrades X-gal, resulting in white colonies since X-gal is not degraded giving that characteristic blue color.
The white, non-transforming colonies are eliminated by adding an antibiotic to the medium for which the plasmid provides resistance (in this case ampicillin), so that we can select the recombinant colonies that carry the vector with our sequence, simply by their color.
So, if bacteria are transformed with a plasmid (with ampicillin resistance) cloned with a gene that interrupts the lac z gene, the bacteria will be white because they do not synthesize the enzyme that degrades X-gal and will be resistant to ampicillin.
