A rapidly growing bacterial species such as E. coli exhibits a typical phase of growth cycle in liquid nutrient broth. If a bacterial culture has starting density 1000 cells/ml in log phase and after four hours cell density is 4000 cells/ml.  What is specific growth rate per hour?

Four different mutant lines showing similar phenotype were identified from a genetic screen. When genetic crosses among these mutants were carried out, the first mutant was found to complement the second, third and fourth mutant lines. However, no other complementation groups do the four mutant lines belongs to?

Parents that are homozygous for different mutations a, b and c are crossed, producing offspring that are heterozygous as following

aa X bb        =  ab  (X)          

 bb X cc         =  bc  (Y)

aa X cc          =   ac  (Z)

If a and b belong to same locus but b and c belong to different locus then phenotype of heterozygote
