It says its small on google
The operon is effectively the center of transcriptional control. In addition to its main structural genes, the operon houses an operator and a promoter. In front of the promoter lies a regulatory gene that produces repressor proteins. When a repressor is in its active state, it binds to the operator.
Hope this helped.
Answer:
The chance of having a Child who is a Heterozygote is 50% , The chance of having a child that will completely come down with Alpers syndrome is 0%
Explanation:
Jack has a history of Alpers in his family
Jill has no history
lets assume Jack is a carrier : Ab ( because that is how he could have survived the first 10 lethal years )
Jill : AA
Therefore the probability/chance of Jack and Jill having a child with Alpers ( carrier ) syndrome will be 50 % as shown below
AA * Ab = AA , Ab, AA, Ab
The child produced by Jack and Jill will only be a carrier of the syndrome and not completely affected by the syndrome
The genetic code is considered universal because the same four nucleotide bases are used by all known organisms
