In his deletion mapping experiments, Benzer coinfected bacteria with one phage that contained a point mutation and one phage that contained a deletion mutation. Assume that the point mutation and deletion mutation are not in overlapping regions of the phage genome. What phage recombinants would you expect if a crossing-over event occurred between the regions of the two mutations?

The correct answer would be - there will be wild type and double mutant (contains both the deletion mutation and the point mutation)

Explanation:

It is mention that the deletion mutation and point mutation are non-overlapping or no overlapping regions in the phage genome. A crossing-over event between the regions of these two mutations would get wild-type which means there would be neither point mutation nor deletion mutation and other would be a double mutant that contains both mutation - the point mutation and the deletion mutation.

Thus, the correct answer is - there will be wild type and double mutant (contains both the deletion mutation and the point mutation)

the correct answer is - d. china has a large and growing population.

the fact that china has a large (the biggest) population, and it is still growing, doesn't hinder the agriculture production in the country. in fact, it can for increased production in the agriculture, since there's more labor force, as well the sheer mass of people produces lots of scientists that come up with new inventions as to how to improve this sector. nice example is the inner mongolia region in china, in general dominated by the gobi desert, but few scientist came up with a nice idea as to how to make the region productive by using plants that are very resistant to droughts, so lots of people have been employed, and the region is becoming greener and greener each year, and the production of food in this region is also increasing.
