Suppose an experimenter becomes proficient with a technique that allows her to move DNA sequences within a prokaryotic genome. If a researcher moves the promoter for the lac operon to the region between the beta galactosidase (lacZ) gene and the permease (lacY) gene, which of the following results would be most likely?

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes
  1. The three genes of the lac operon will be expressed normally.

  2. RNA polymerase will no longer transcribe permease.

  3. The operon will still transcribe the lacZ and lacY genes, but the mRNA will not be translated.

  4. Beta galactosidase will not be produced.

Breeding experiment was performed on pure lines of tomatoes differing in fruit weight. The plants were all grown in a controlled environment chamber providing equal environmental conditions for all individuals as far as humanly possible. The results were as follows:

a) One dominants polygene contribution?

b) What will be frequency of 20 g in F2 CLASSES?

c) Number of polygene loci for this character.

Numerous pure breeding crosses are made between two inbred plant strains, one having a mean height at maturity of 96 cm and the other as 56 cm. The height of the F1 progeny at maturity averages close to 76 cm. Height of plant control by four pair of polygene. The F2 progeny show the following phenotype.
