Answer:
Organic molecules have more chemical potential energy than inorganic molecules
Explanation:
Chemical molecules can either be organic or inorganic depending on whether they contain certain elements. Organic molecules are molecules that contain in their structure a carbon-hydrogen bond (C-H) e.g C2H4, C6H12O6 etc. while inorganic compounds do not contain the carbon and hydrogen elements bonded together e.g CO2, H2S
Considering the substances/compounds involved in photosynthesis and respiration, glucose (C6H12O6) is the only organic compound while every other compound is inorganic. However, organic compounds store more potential energy called chemical energy in its C-C or C-H bonds than inorganic molecules do.
Answer:
a. Acts as a repressor (inhibits transcription from the lac operon)
Explanation:
LacI is a repressor protein that plays an important role in lac operon. Lac operon is usually switched off i.e. it is inactive in absence of lactose and presence of glucose. The operon has an operator region, promoter region and structural genes.
In absence of lactose, LacI repressor binds to the operator area. Since operator region overlaps with the promoter region, RNA Polymerase is not able to bind to promoter due to presence of repressor. Transcription of lac operon genes does not take place. When lactose is present, some of it is converted into allolactose. Allolactose binds to LacI repressor making it change its shape. The repressor is no longer able to bind to operator region and RNA Polymerase is free to transcribe the genes making the operon active.
