In a generalized transduction experiment, phages are collected from an E. coli donor strain of genotype cys+ leu+thr+ and used to transduce a recipient of genotype cys_ leu_ thr_. Initially, the treated recipient population is plated on a minimal medium supplemented with leucine and threonine. Many colonies are obtained. These colonies are then replica-plated onto three different media: What is order of gene?

Given the following measurements, calculate the filtration fraction: glomerular capillary hydrostatic pressure = 50 mm Hg; Bowman’s space hydrostatic pressure = 15 mm Hg; colloid osmotic

pressure in the glomerular capillaries = 30 mm Hg; glomerular capillary filtration coefficient (Kf) = 12 ml/min/mm Hg; and renal plasma flow = 400 ml/min.
