Following statements are regarding to the mechanism of migration of pollen tube.

A. The embryo sac is the product of three mitotic divisions of the diploid megaspore; it comprises seven cells and eight haploid nuclei.

B. The two polar nuclei in the central cell will fuse with the second sperm nucleus and produce the endosperm that will nourish the egg. The other six cells, including the egg, contain one haploid nucleus each.

C. After compatible pollen germinates, the pollen tube grows toward the micropyle.

D. The three cells from the pollen are connected to one another at the tip of the tube, and waves of sodium ions play a key role in the growth of the tube.

Wild type E. coli metabolizes the sugar lactose by expressing the enzyme ß-galactosidase. You have isolated a mutant that you call lac1-, which cannot synthesize ß-galactosidase and cannot grow on lactose (Lac-). During an condition  isolate  a second Lac– mutation, which you designate lac2-. Using P1 phage on this strain and use the resulting phage lysate to infect the lac2- strain, selecting for   Kanr   transductants. In this case, all 100   Kanr   transductants that are examined are Lac–. What does this result tell you about the relationship between the lac1- and lac2- mutations?
