Substance C is required for the cell's growth. In your experiment, you irradiate the cell's DNA to cause mutations to the enzyme Sure enough, the cell doesn't grow after radiation unless supplemented. Now you need to out which gene was mutated. Use this information to answer the questions below. 2 points each 14. You supplement your mutated cell culture with substances A, B and C. Do the cells grow? Why or why not? Yes, the cells will continue to grow, since substance C is supplemented. By supplementing substance C, the final product that's required for cell growth will allow the cells to grow. Whether the mutation affected both enzymes function, affected only one enzyme, or didn taffect the firuction at all the cels wil gow eventually since both enzymes are just steps in a pathway to reach product C that is responsible for the cell growth. 15. You supplement your mutated cell culture with substance B only. The cells grow! Is enzyme B's gene mutated? How do you know? To answer this question let' s take in consideration that not each mutation can alter the fuiction. There are mutations that can be beneficial neutral, or deleterious such as inited StatesExplanation / Answer
The given answer are good only.
14. Yes, the cell will grow because the substance C is important for cell growth. Even the both enzymes are
affected we are supplementing directly compound C in the medium it is the ultimate product for the gowth of cell.
15. They given Cell will grow.So, mutation not have any effect in the enzyme B. This might be silent mutation.
so, the compound B convert into compound C. so, cell will survive.
16. Yes, enzume A is get mutated. so, it not able to convert compound A to B. So, without B even presence of enzyme B we not able to produce C. So, cell will not grow.
