Imagine you are a biologist investigating a problem a farmer is having with beetles eating his crops. The farmer wants to use a type of pesticide that will kill almost all the beetles except the few that are largest in size. Explain to what will happen over time if the farmer uses this pesticide and design/suggest an alternative solution for the farmer's beetle problem.

Keeping in mind the life cycle of bacteriophages, consider the following problem: during the reproductive cycle of a temperate bacteriophage, the viral dna inserts into the bacterial chromosome where the resultant prophage behaves much like a trojan horse. it can remain quiescent, or it can become lytic and initiate a burst of progeny viruses. several operons maintain the prophage state by interacting with a repressor that keeps the lytic cycle in check. insults (ultraviolet light, for example) to the bacterial cell lead to a partial breakdown of the repressor, which in turn causes the production of enzymes involved in the lytic cycle. as stated in this simple form, would you consider this system of regulation to be operating under positive or negative control?

This problem has been solved! see the answeryou are investigating two traits in fruit flies controlled by one gene each. the b gene controls for body color (black or brown), while the r gene controls for body sculpture (rugose or smooth). after crossing rugose black flies with smooth brown flies, you obtain an f1 generation of 100% smooth black flies.what are the dominant alleles? (1 pt)what are the genotypes of the two parent flies to perform a dihybrid test cross? (1 pt)after running a dihybrid test cross, you find 1000 offspring with the following phenotypes: , rugose406black, smooth86brown, rugose94brown, smooth4141000fill in the expected column with the expected number of offspring in each class of phenotypes. (1 pt)what phenotype classes represent the recombinant offspring? (1 pt each)calculate the relative genetic distance between the body color gene and the body sculpting gene (show your work). (1 pt).
