The two strains a and b are tested for being auxotrophic for the following nutritional mutations: pyridoxine (pdx), biotin (bio), methionine (met), adenine (ade), and para-aminobenzoic acid (pab). Growth is indicated by ( + ) and lack of growth by ( - ). From these tests, what is genotype of strain a and b respectively (+ indicate prototroph while other auxotroph)?

Following statement regarding to the cascade of regulated RNA splicing controls drosophila sexual differentiation.
A. The Sex-lethal (Sxl)
protein, encoded by the sex-lethal gene, is the first protein to act in the
cascade and present only in female embryos.
B. Early in development, the Sxl gene is transcribed from a
promoter that functions only in male embryos.
C. Later in development, this male-specific promoter is shut
off, and another promoter for sex-lethal becomes active in both male and female
embryos.
D. In male embryos, however, in the absence of early Sxl
protein, exon 3 of the sex-lethal pre-mRNA is spliced to exon 2 to produce an
mRNA that contains a stop codon early in the sequence.
Which of the following is correct?

Following statements are regarding to the phosphoinositide signaling pathway.
A. Many RTKs and cytokine receptors can initiate the IP3/ DAG signaling pathway by activating phospholipase Cβ (PLCβ), a different PLC isoform.
B. Activated RTKs and cytokine receptors also can initiate another phosphoinositide pathway by binding a PI-3 kinase, thereby allowing the enzyme access to its membrane-bound phosphoinositide substrates, which then become phosphorylated at the 3 position.
C. Protein kinase B (PKB) becomes partially activated by binding to PI 3-phosphates with its PH domain.
D. Full activation of PKB requires phosphorylation by the kinase PDK1, which is also recruited to the membrane by binding to PI 3-kinase, and by a second kinase, PDK2.
Which of the following combination is incorrect?
