A new E. coli mutant was tested for auxotrophy. The mutant grows on:

minimal medium (M) + arginine (A) + proline (P)

M + P + histidine (H)

M + A + H + P

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

cells are grown in a CSTR a steady state at two dilution rates 0.1 h^-1 and 0.5h^-1 and the steady state concentrations are as follows: 

if the inlet substrate concentration is 20 g/I, the cells follow monod growth kinetics and product formation kinetics is modelled as a both growth associated and non growth associated kinetics given by the equation then answer the following questions, the best estimate of maximum specific growth rate is:

Which of the following statements about the C4 cycle is true ?

a.) C4 plants uses the enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCase), rather than rubisco

b.) Unlike rubisco, O2 does not compete with HCO3 − in the carboxylation catalyzed by PEPCase

c.)  initial carboxylation catalyzes in bundle sheath cells, four-carbon acids formed and flow across the diffusion barrier to the mesophyll cells

d.) during decarboxylation, releasing CO2 that is refixed by rubisco via the Calvin–Benson cycle
