question 42

Multiple Choice

Mutant fruit flies that make only one antimicrobial peptide were tested for survival after infection with Neurospora crassa fungi or with Micrococcus luteus bacteria, and the results are shown in Figures 35.1 and 35.2.
Mutant fruit flies that make only one antimicrobial peptide were tested for survival after infection with Neurospora crassa fungi or with Micrococcus luteus bacteria, and the results are shown in Figures 35.1 and 35.2.        Figure 35.1 Figure 35.2 -The results shown in the graphs in Figures 35.1 and 35.2 support the hypothesis that A)  adding the defensin gene to such mutants protects them from fungal infection. B)  adding the drosomycin gene to such mutants protects them from fungal infection. C)  wild-type flies with the full set of genes for antimicrobial peptides are highly susceptible to these infective agents. D)  the presence of any single antimicrobial peptide protects against both infective agents. E)  even the wild-type flies rarely, if ever, survive for 5 days.
