8. You infect E. coli cells with two strains of T4 virus. One strain is minute (m), rapid lysis (r) and turbid (t); the other is wild-type for all three markers. The lytic products of this dual infection are plated on a lawn of E. coli and the morphology of the plaques are classified. The resulting 10, 342 plaques were distributed among eight phenotypes, as follows: mrt 3467 +++ 3729 mr+ 853 m+t 162 m++ 520 +rt 474 +r+ 172 ++t 965 You decide to repeat the exact same experiment as outlined above and this time you count and classify 25, 000 plaques? How many plaques would you expect to be wild-type for all three markers? (Hint: You will need to calculate the expected DCO class for the cross above and apply that to your answer.)

1. You take a sample with a concentration of 1,000,000 pfu/mL of bacteriophage and make a dilution by taking 1mL from the tube and add it to 9mL of fresh broth and mix. You and repeat this 4 more times, Then you plate 1mL of the sample with a few drops of E.coli on a TSA plate. How many plaques do you expect to see when you examine the plate the next day? m^^^? Tube A a) 1,000,000 plaques b) 1000 plaques c) 10 plaques d) 1 plaque e) No plaques E. coli TSA
Many ELISAs that are used to identify the presence of antibody to viruses have a 3rd control (along with negative and positive). In between the rows of wells coated with antigen, are rows of cells coated with tissue culture used to grow the virus. In other words, patient serum is added to wells that contain antigen along with wells that contain tissue culture. Why do you think this might be necessary?
In our pandemic world, COVID testing has become a very common thing (unfortunately necessary). When receiving a test to detect the COVID virus, a person may or may not have COVID, and the test result could come back either positive or negative. (a) Explain what specificity means in the context of a COVID test. (b) Explain what sensitivity means in the context of a COVID test.
Compare and contrast the role and types of viral mutations in 1918 IAV and SARS-C0V-2 in the respective pandemics, paying particular attention to: 1. causes of mutations 2. Key mutations responsible for generating highly pathogenic viral strain. 3. effects of mutated viral gene products on host immune system. 4. effects of newly emergent viral strain on virus spread worldwide.
