Four E. coli strains of genotype a+ b− are labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. Four strains of genotype a− b+ are labeled 5, 6, 7, and 8. The two genotypes are mixed in all possible combinations and (after incubation) are plated to determine the frequency of a+ b+ recombinants. The following results are obtained, where M = many recombinants, L = low numbers of recombinants, and 0 = no recombinants. On the basis of these results, assign a sex type (either Hfr, F+, or F−) to each strain

  1. Thus strains 2, 3, 4 and 7 are F−. Strains 1 and 8 are F+, and strains 5, and 6 are Hfr.

  2. Thus strains  3, and 7 are F−. Strains 1, 2 and 8 are F+, and strains 4, 5, and 6 are Hfr.

  3. Thus strains 2, 3, and 7 are F−. Strains 1, 6 and 8 are F+, and strains 4 and 5 are Hfr.

  4. Thus strains 2, 3, and 7 are F−. Strains 1 and 8 are F+, and strains 4, 5, and 6 are Hfr.

The following is a schematic representation of region of the chromosome of fly along with extent of six deletions (Del 1 to Del 6); 
When flies homozygous for the recessive mutations are crossed with flies heterozygous for the deletions, the following results are obtained, in which "m" represents a mutant phenotype and a plus sign (+) represents the wild type. On the basis of these data, determine the relative order of the seven mutant eenes on the chromosome.

A panel of cell lines was created by human—mouse somatic-cell hybridization. Each cell line was examined for the presence of human chromosomes and for the production of three enzymes. The following results were obtained: 

On the basis of these results, give the chromosomal locations of the genes encoding enzyme 1, enzyme 2, and enzyme 3.
