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?

A recombinant phage containing both mutations.

Explanation:

A recombinant organism is produced by recombination, which is a genetic phenomenon associated with the repair of double-strand breaks in DNA. In genetic research, recombinant organisms are used to investigate target gene expression. The process of DNA repair may be associated with two different pathways: homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). In this case, the recombinant phage contains no overlapping mutations (i.e., both deletion and point mutations), thereby carrying the desired genetic combination.

an organism's phenotype is the  form of a trait  that it  displays. for  flowercolor, a pea  plant  can  display  a phenotype of purple or white flowers. an organism's  genotype  is the alleles of a gene it contains. based on his data, mendel concluded that a phenotype can be  determined  by more than one  genotype.
