Chloroplast movement is widespread among algae, mosses, and leaves of higher plants, what will be the orientation of chloroplast in dark as well as in light?

a.) In dark, chloroplasts gather at the cell surfaces parallel to the plane of the leaf so that they are aligned perpendicularly to the incident light

b.) Under high light, , the chloroplasts move to the cell surfaces that are parallel to the incident light, thus avoiding excess absorption of light

c.) the orientation of the chloroplasts in the dark is such that maximizes absorption of light

d.) the orientation of the chloroplasts in the high light is such that maximizes absorption of light

Which of the following statements is correct?

You have isolated a set of five yeast mutants that form dark red colonies instead of the usual white colonies of wild-type yeast. You cross each of the mutants to a wild-type haploid strain and obtain the results shown below;

you cross each haploid mutant strain to a different haploid mutant of the opposite mating type. From the results shown below deduce as much as you can about which mutations lie in the same gene. Clearly state any remaining ambiguities and suggest some general ways that the ambiguities might be resolved

a) That mutants 1 and 3 form one complementation group and are mutations in the same gene (gene A) 

b) That mutations 2 and 5 form a second complementation group and are mutations in a second gene (gene B).

c) That mutations 3 and 5 form a second complementation group and are mutations in a second gene (gene B).

d) The first ambiguity is whether mutant 4 has a mutation in gene A or B, or whether it represents a unique gene.

Which of the following is the correct prediction about mutants?

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?
