If an optic vesicle from a Xenopus laevis embryo is placed underneath head ectoderm in a different part of the head from where the frog’s optic vesicle normally occurs then what happens?

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. the optic vesicle will induce that ectoderm to form lens tissue.
  2. the optic vesicle will not induce that ectoderm to form lens tissue
  3. the optic vesicle will inhibit that ectoderm to form lens tissue
  4. the optic vesicle will induce that ectoderm to form other tissues rather than lens

You have isolated two temperature-sensitive mutations in phage l that you suspect may be in the same gene. These phage mutants are called ts-1 and ts-2. Each mutant will form plaques at 35˚C but not at 42˚C. You cross ts-1 to ts-2 phage by coinfecting E. coli at the permissive temperature of 35˚C. When the resulting phage lysate is plated at 35˚C you count 10,000 plaques per ml of phage lysate, but when the same phage lysate is plated at 42˚C, there are only 80 plaques per ml.  
If the total size of the phage is 5 x 104 bp and the total genetic map length of the phage is 100 m.u., about how far apart are the mutations in base pairs?
