Question

To help sort out those bacteria that have the vgp gene, scientists first attempt to grow the bacteria both in a medium with ampicillin and in a medium without ampicillin. Demonstrate your understanding of this step by sorting the four bacterial classes based on where they will grow. Sort the bacterial class into the appropriate category.becaterial class: -no plasmid, -nonerecombinant plasmid, -recombinant plasmid but no vgp gene, -recombiant plasmid with vgp genewill ONLY grow in medium without ampicillin:will ONLY grow in medium containing ampicillin:will grow in both media:

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

bacteria with No Plasmid -----------------will grow ONLY in medium without ampicillin.

"nonrecombinant gene, recombinant plasmid with vgp gene,", recombinant plasmid but no vgp gene-----------------------will grow in both media".

it means Plasmid have ampicillin resistance gene. So if we use medium with ampicillin so it will allow the growth of only those bacterai which have transformed plasmid (containing amp resistance gene).

so having gene or not, recombinant or recombinant dosnt matter, all the other s will grow in both type of medium as far as plasmid is transformed in to it.
