You and your lab partner have isolated 20 new mutant yeast strains that are defective in synthesis of threonine, an amino acid. These Thr- mutants do not grow on minimal medium, but they do grow on minimal medium supplemented with threonine. Ten of your Thr- mutants (numbered 1 through 10) were isolated in a strain of mating type a (MAT a). The other 10 Thrmutants (numbered 11 through 20) were isolated in a strain of mating type α (MAT α). You and your lab partner cross each of the MAT a strains to each of the MAT α strains, and you include crosses to the appropriate wild-type strains. Your experimental observations are shown in the table below, where (-) indicates diploids that did not grow on minimal medium and (+) indicates diploids that did grow on minimal medium.

What is the maximum number of genes that these 20 mutants could represent?

There are few statements is given regarding the peptide bond configuration in a chain

(a) The peptide bond is normally (99.6% of the time) in the trans configuration, constraining  to a value of w=+_180

(b) The peptide bond is normally (99.6% of the time) in the Cis configuration, constraining  to a value of w=+_180

(c) In the trans configuration of peptide bond C and C=O lies in the Same plane while in different plane in case of cis configuration 

(d) In the trans configuration of peptide bond C and C=O lies in the different plane while in same plane in case of cis configuration
