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 Thr mutants (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.

Which mutations are recessive?

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology
  1. only 9 and 14
  2. All except 9 and 14
  3. all the given mutation in the table is recessive
  4. 3, 4, 15 and 16 are shown the recessive mutation

Fgf10 is function as positive feedback factor in different ways such as___
a) to maintain the activation of both Wnt2b and Tbx5
b) to tells the surface ectoderm to continue to make Fgf8, and the surface ectoderm continues to tell the underlying mesoderm to make Fgf10
c) to maintain the activation of both Wnt3a and Tbx4
d) to tell the mesenchyme cells directly beneath it to continue making Fgf10

The two-experiment performed by a scientist with a forelimb mesenchyme and seeing their results;
I-leg mesenchyme is placed directly beneath the wing AER
II-limb mesenchyme is replaced by non-limb mesenchyme beneath the AER
Conclusion of these experiment are seeing; 
a) distal hindlimb structures develop at the end of the limb
b) supernumerary structures are formed, usually toward the distal end of the limb
c) the AER regresses and limb development ceases
