1. Briefly describe the lytic and lysogenic cycles of bacteriophages. In your answer, explain what a prophage is. 2. What is cotransduction? What determines the likelihood that two

genes will be cotransduced? 3. When bacteriophage P1 causes
E. coli
to lyse, the resulting material is called a P1 lysate. What type of genetic material would be found in most of the P1 phages in the lysate? What kind of genetic material is occasionally found within a P1 phage?
