Summary Introduction

To determine: The number of distinct DNA bands that would be visible in each species if saparated by gel electrophoresis.

Introduction: Gel electrophoresis is a technique for detachment and study of macromolecules and fragments, based on the size and charge.

Below are two pictures of perithecium on microscope slides that have been squished under cover slips so that the asci inside have spread out. In the asci, we can clearly see the tan ascospores (light colored) and wildtype ascospores (dark colored). We will perform our tetrad analysis by counting how many of the asci are non-recombinant and how many of the acsi are recombinant. We can tell which are recombinant and non-recombinant by observing the patterns of the ascospores in the asci. See the patterns of ascospores for non- recombinant and recombinant asci in the table below. Ascospore pattern of non-recombinant asci OOOO OOOOO You will count the total number of non-recombinant and recombinant asci in the two pictures below. You will only count the asci that have a star next to them because these asci can be clearly identified as non-recombinant or recombinant. Select the correct number below after you are done. Total number of non-recombinant asci [Select] Ascospore pattern of…
Baker's yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is a single-celled, diploid fungus (which is, of course, a eukaryote, that is capable of both meiosis and sexual reproduction). Wild type yeast can normally grow on solid or liquid minimal medium; you isolate three mutant strains which are no longer capable of growing on minimal medium alone, however, they can grow on medium supplemented with adenine. All three yeast strains are homozygous for the underlying alleles. When you cross mutant strain 1 and mutant strain 2, the offspring cannot grow on minimal medium alone and require adenine supplementation; when you cross mutant strain 1 and mutant strain 3, the offspring can grow on minimal medium alone and do not require adenine. After crossing the F1 generation of the cross between mutant strains 1 and 3, you count and determine the phenotypes of 1,000 colonies (here a colony is equivalent to an individual):  563 colonies that can grow on minimal medium alone; 437 colonies that require adenine…

When you cross mutant strain 1 and mutant strain 2, the offspring cannot grow on minimal medium alone and require adenine supplementation; when you cross mutant strain 1 and mutant strain 3, the offspring can grow on minimal medium alone and do not require adenine. A. What conclusions can you make about the alleles of mutant strains 1, 2, and 3 and their relationships with each other?  B. What phenomenon is occurring in the cross between mutant strains 1 and 3? After crossing the F1 generation of the cross between mutant strains 1…
