Which of the following statements describes a covalent bond between Carbon and Hydrogen:

#SCPH05 I Biotechnology

  1. The electrons are shared equally between the two atoms of the bond.

  2. The electrons of the bond are pulled closer to the nucleus of Hydrogen, because its outer shell electron is closer to its nucleus than the outer shell electrons of Carbon are to its nucleus.

  3. The electrons of the bond are pulled closer to the nucleus of Hydrogen, because its nucleus contains more protons than Carbon.

  4. The electrons of the bond are pulled slightly closer to the nucleus of Carbon, because although its outer shell electrons are located farther away from the protons of its nucleus, it contains more protons than Hydrogen.

An otherwise healthy student in your class is infected with EBV, the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis. The same student had already been infected when she was a child, and she had merely experienced a mild sore throat and swollen lymph nodes in her neck. This time, though infected, she does not get sick. 

Her immune systemʹs recognition of this infection will involve which of the following?

You are studying a specific gene in yeast, and you want to express that yeast gene in E. coli. Your task is to design a strategy to insert the yeast gene into the bacterial plasmid. Below is a map of the area of the yeast genome surrounding the gene in which you are interested.
 
The distance between each tick mark placed on the line above is 100 bases in length
Below are the enzymes you can use, with their specific cut sites shown 5’-XXXXXX-3’ 3’-XXXXXX-5’
 
The plasmid is 5,000 bases long and the two farthest restriction enzyme sites are 200 bases apart. The plasmid has an ampicillin resistance gene somewhere on the plasmid distal from the restriction cut sites.
                                    
You transform your ligation planned in which two restriction enzymes would you use to design a way to get the insert into the vector if you had to use two enzymes simultaneously, into bacteria and plate the bacteria on Petri plates containing ampicillin. (You actually transform six different ligation mixtures, which are described below, into six different populations of cells, and plate each transformation onto a different plate, because you want to do all of the correct controls.) The next day you come in to lab to look at how many colonies of bacteria are on each plate. You are really excited, because the number of colonies you see on each plate tells you that the entire procedure worked! Which of the three following patterns of number of colonies did you see in order to conclude that you had a successful transformation?
In this table, DV = digested vector. DYG = digested yeast genome.
