You have two bottles, each of which contains a white, crystalline substance. Your lab director tells you that one contains lactose and the other sucrose. Your job is to determine which bottle contains which sugar. Which procedure would you use?

#SCPH28 | Zoology
  1. Test both for solubility in water. Sucrose is very soluble; lactose is only minimally soluble.

  2. Test for the ability to reduce Ag+. Only lactose will react.

  3. Dissolve each in water and record the pH. Lactose is far more acidic than sucrose.

  4. React each with bromine (Br2) water. Only sucrose will react.

You and your lab partner have isolated 20 new mutant yeast strains that are defective in synthesis of threonine, an amino acid. These Thr- mutants do not grow on minimal medium, but they do grow on minimal medium supplemented with threonine. Ten of your Thr- mutants (numbered 1 through 10) were isolated in a strain of mating type a (MAT a). The other 10 Thrmutants (numbered 11 through 20) were isolated in a strain of mating type α (MAT α). You and your lab partner cross each of the MAT a strains to each of the MAT α strains, and you include crosses to the appropriate wild-type strains. Your experimental observations are shown in the table below, where (-) indicates diploids that did not grow on minimal medium and (+) indicates diploids that did grow on minimal medium

Based on these experiments, what is the minimum number of genes required for threonine synthesis?
