Question
You mutagenized bacteria and isolated two mutants that you suspected to be
defective in DNA synthesis. You measured incorporation of radioactivity (Y-
axis) for various times (X-axis) at two temperatures (30 deg C shown as open
circles and 40 deg C shown a filled circles in both figures) for the two mutants
of bacteria (left and right figures). For this experiment, you can conclude that
