You have isolated two mutations that show decreased expression of the Lac operon. However, unlike like the promoter mutations, these mutations don’t respond to the inducer IPTG. These mutations, designated Lac3– and Lac4–, are evaluated for the quantity of ß-galactosidase and permease activity expressed with or without IPTG:
 
Mapping experiments reveal that Lac3– and Lac4– are different short deletions located in the region before the start of the LacZ gene. Given the data shown above suggest which genetic element(s) in addition to part of the promoter has been deleted in each mutant. 

#Unit 13. Methods in Biology
  1. In Lac3-, a part of LacI is deleted in addition to the promoter and In Lac4-, a part of LacO is deleted in addition to the promoter
  2.  In Lac3-, a part of LacO is deleted in addition to the promoter and In Lac4-, a part of LacI is deleted in addition to the promoter
  3. Lac3- best fits the properties of LacOmutations (cis-acting dominant) and Lac4- best fits the genetic characteristics of LacI-d mutations (trans-acting dominant).
  4.  In Lac3-, a part of LacI is deleted in addition to the promoter and In Lac4-, a part of LacI is also deleted in addition to the promoter.

Plant height of wild Solanum nigrum is controlled by polygene. A pure line plant with 60 cm height was cross to pure line plant having 20 cm height .All F1 plant having uniform height 40 cm. F1 plant was allowed to self-fertilization to produced 4/64 proportional of F2 plant having height 20 cm . What is number of polygene governing plant height?
