Therefore, this strain can grow on media that contain glucose and streptomycin, but it cannot grow on media containing only lactose. A researcher has sent you two E. coli strains in two separate tubes. One strain, let’s call it strain A, has an F factor that carries the genes that are required for lactose metabolism. On its chromosome, it also has the genes that are required for glucose metabolism. However, it is sensitive to streptomycin. This strain can grow on media containing lactose or glucose, but it cannot grow if streptomycin is added to the media. The second strain, let’s call it strain B, is an F − strain. On its chromosome, it has thegenes that are required for lactose and glucose metabolism. StrainB is also sensitive to streptomycin. Unfortunately, when strains A and B were sent to you, the labels had fallen off the…arrow_forward
