- Suppose you cultured yeast, that you had transformed with pMZ379 plus the AVT5 sgRNA, on a plate of YES agar plus salt ions. You then cultured untransformed yeast on a plate containing YES agar plus salt ions. Your results showed growth on both plates. Which of the following is the most reasonable interpretation of your results? O A) The untransformed yeast spontaneously mutated to have a Cas9 gene that could silence the AVT5 gene. O B) The yeast had a mutation in the AVT5 gene that made the protein non- functional. C) The sgRNA gene correctly guided the Cas9 protein to the AVT5 gene to silence it in the transformed yeast. D) The conditions for the experiment were so exceptional, that they promoted growth in both the modified and unmodified yeast.arrow_forwardWhen choosing a "first line" drug to treat an infection, the most important characteristic would be? the specific mechanism of action bactericidal broad spectrum low toxicity (fewest side effects) In what cell type can both transcription and translation occur simultaneously? both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells neither prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells prokaryotic cells eukaryotic cellsarrow_forwardThe new vaccines use messenger RNA (mRNA) in order to trigger the body into mounting an immune response against the viral particles of SARS-CoV-2.
