Wild-type strains of the haploid fungus Neurospora canmake their own tryptophan. An abnormal allele td renders the fungus incapable of making its own tryptophan.An individual of genotype td grows only when its medium supplies tryptophan. The allele su assorts independently of td; its only known effect is to suppress the tdphenotype. Therefore, strains carrying both td and su donot require tryptophan for growth.a. If a td ; su strain is crossed with a genotypically wildtype strain, what genotypes are expected in the progenyand in what proportions?b. What will be the ratio of tryptophan-dependent totryptophan-independent progeny in the cross of part a?

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmissible disease (STD) caused by the bacterium Neiserria gonorrhoeae. In the 1940s, penicillin was introduced as an antibiotic to treat gonorrhea. In particular, the drug inhibits the formation of new cell walls in dividing bacterial cells, making new cells vulnerable to the human body's defences. However, a new strain of Neiserria gonorrhoeae was found that is capable of breaking down penicillin, making this strain resistant. The emergence of this new strain has been associated with instances of non-strict compliance of certain patients on the use of penicillin as well as the improper administration of the drug. Based on the information given, formulate a strategy that could help control this new strain.
