You need fully explain the lac operon and the induction process strain used was
Questions I need help with :
describe one graph for each of the following simulations:
One graph for Mutation. Use a figure legend to explain what the figure shows.
c.) One graph for Mutation. Use a figure legend to explain what the figure shows
Explain the effect of lactose and of the potential inducers, and the function of β-galactosidase on this strain of E. coli. In your answer, you need to fully explain the Lac operon and the induction process.
The strain of E.coli used was K12. The function of β-galactosidase is that it catalyzes the hydrolysis of lactose ands converts the sugar into glucose and galactose(Nivetha and Mohanasrinivasan,2017).
7) Consider a population in which one child in 400 is affected by sickle-cell anaemia. Let S be the normal allele for the beta-globin chain of haemoglobin, and s be the allele for the mutated beta-globin chain (hence s is the allele responsible for sickle-cell anaemia when the genotype is ss). We assume that S and s are the only alleles for this gene so that p + q = 1:
When q = 0.05, what is the expected percentage (%) of the total matings in the population that would involve two heterozygotes (Ss)?
8) Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic disorder that affects 1 in 10,000 births in the USA. This is now known because new-borns are tested for PKU. PKU is a recessive inherited disease (recessive homozygotes develop the condition, heterozygotes do not), which if left untreated it can result in mental retardation and other problems. Symptoms can be lessened with a phenylalanine-free diet.
