Programmed cell death, or apoptosis, is an essential part of animal development. In the nematode, with its invariant cell lineage, particular cell lineages or particular cells within specific lineages are destined to end in programmed cell death, and it was this feature that allowed the identification of the process and the analysis of its genetic control.

Which of the following combination of genes are correct?

M + P + histidine (H)

M + A + H + P

but not on M or on M + A + H. The mutant requires

E. coli cells were spread on an agar plate, producing 1000 colonies.  The colonies are replica plated on two agar plates containing the antibiotic kanamycin and one agar plate without antibiotics.  All of the colonies are able to grow on the agar plate without antibiotic but only 4 colonies are able to grow on each of the agar plates containing kanamycin.  You notice that the four colonies that grew on each of the kanamycin containing plates are in the exact same position.  This demonstrates
