Operon is not transcribed:

-lac operon: lactose absent

-trp operon: tryptophan present

Positive control transcription of Operon does not speed it up:

Lactose and glucose are present, -lac operon

Tryptophan is lacking in the -trp operon.

Operon is transcribed quickly through positive control:

-lac operon: lactose present, glucose not

Only negative control is used to regulate the trp operon. The operon genes are not transcribed when tryptophan is present.

Both positive control and negative control are used to control the lac operon.

Negative control: —Transcription is inhibited when lactose is missing due to the activity of the repressor protein.

—The repressor protein is deactivated and transcription is triggered when lactose is present.

Positive control: —In the absence of glucose, another regulatory protein (CAP) attaches to the lac operon's promoter, speeding up transcription in the presence of lactose.

The outer hair cells change length in response to basilar membrane motion. What does that accomplish?

olga nikolaevna [1]

Outer hair cells change their axial dimensions in response to electrical stimulation.

What is basilar membrane motion?

Hair cell stereocilia move as a result of the basilar membrane's movement. The tectorial membrane and the hair cells, which are connected to the basilar membrane, move along with it when it moves, and the stereocilia bend in response to the relative motion of the tectorial membrane.

The hair cells that are linked to the auditory nerve fibers are stimulated by the basilar membrane's movement. While the outside hair cells actively affect the basilar membrane's vibrations, the inner hair cells convert hydromechanical vibration into action potentials.

With each sound cycle, the intracellular voltage of the outer hair cells varies, causing them to lengthen and contract. This increases the organ of Corti's vibration, enabling exceptionally high hearing sensitivity and frequency selectivity.

El Niños tend to result in drier conditions across Australia. Which of these is likely to occur in Australia during La Niña?

N76 [4]

Since Australia is located in the Pacific ocean, extremes of weather and climate happen throughout a season. El Niño is traditionally defined as a dry climate with reduced rainfall; in this happens to be more extreme in Australia because of its location. La Niña on the other hand is traditionally defined as a wet or cool climate with lots of rainfall; and this is indifferent as La Niña in Australia tend to be more extreme too.
