Green fluorescent protein (gfp) can be used to fluorescently label a specific protein in cells by genetically engineering cells to synthesize the target protein fused to gfp. what is the advantage of using gfp fusions to visualize specific proteins, instead of staining cells with fluorescently labeled probes that bind to the target protein?
a. gfp fusions enable one to track changes in the location of the protein in living cells; staining usually requires preserved cells.
b. gfp fusions enable higher resolution than staining with fluorescent probes.
c. gfp permits the position of the protein in the cell more precisely than fluorescent probes.
d. gfp permits visualization of protein-protein interactions; fluorescent probes do not.
e. gfp fusions are not subject to artifacts; fluorescent probes may introduce background artifacts.

Scenario 5 1) take 10 red and 10 black beans and place them, mixed, on the table. record the starting phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your starting population in the table provided (generation 0). 2) act as a predator. “capture” as many organisms as you can until you have reduced the population to three organisms. put them aside. at this point, the predators die. 3) the remaining organisms each produce 2 clonal offspring. multiply your organisms accordingly and allow them to mix on the table. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 1). 4) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 2). 5) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 3).
