The gene atg-12 codes for a protein associated with abnormal rates of cell destruction and recycling of cell contents. Scientists studying bacterial plasmids devised an experiment using recombinant DNA techniques to remove a section of DNA (gene atg-12) of a bacterial plasmid (pOKE103) and create a new plasmid (pOKE104) that did not contain the gene atg-12. The new plasmid was then incorporated within the DNA of the fungus Neurospora crassa in cellular studies.
Which statement explains the expected heredity of fungi that incorporate pOKE104?
A) Fungi that incorporate pOKE104 will produce the protein from gene atg-12 and have increased rates of malignant tumors.
B) Fungi that incorporate pOKE104 will not produce the protein from gene atg-12 but will have a normal appearance.
C) The prokaryotic DNA will remain separate within the fungal cells, produce the protein from gene atg-12, and have increased rates of malignant tumors.
D) The prokaryotic DNA will remain separate within the fungal cells and not produce the protein from gene atg-12, but will have a normal appearance.
