The pressure-flow model explains phloem translocation as a flow of solution (bulk flow) driven by an osmotically generated pressure gradient between source and sink.

a) Phloem translocation, both active and passive mechanisms were considered. All theories, both active and passive, assume an energy requirement in both sources and sinks.

b) In sources, energy is necessary to move photosynthate from producing cells into the sieve elements. This movement of photosynthate is called phloem loading.

c) In sinks, energy is essential for some aspects of movement from sieve elements to sink cells, which store or metabolize the sugar. This movement of photosynthate from sieve elements to sink cells is called phloem unloading.

d) The Active mechanisms of phloem transport further assume that energy is required in the sieve elements of the path between sources and sinks simply to maintain structures.

From the given statements find out the correct for pressure-flow model.

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.           What is the distance between the ts-1 and ts-2 mutations in m.u.?

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?

#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling

Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (or PAMPs) are common foreign structures that characterize whole groups of pathogens. It is these unique antigenic structures that the immune system frequently recognizes first. Animals, both invertebrates and vertebrates, have evolved to express several types of cell surface and soluble proteins that quickly recognize many of these PAMPs; a form of pathogen profiling. For example, encapsulated bacteria possess a polysaccharide coat with a unique chemical structure that is not found on other bacterial or human cells. White blood cells naturally express a variety of receptors, collectively referred to as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), that specifically recognize these sugar residues, sugar residues is recognised by?
