The repressor protein is coded by the i gene.

<h3>What is the function of the repressor protein in lac operon?</h3>

A protein known as a repressor prevents one or more genes from being expressed. The i gene codes for the repressor protein. The repressor protein inhibits messenger RNA synthesis by attaching to the promoter region of the gene(s). For the control of gene expression in cells, repressor proteins are crucial.

Repressors and activators of gene expression in bacteria are different from one another. However, depending on how a DNA binding protein interacts with other proteins in the cell or in other biological contexts, higher eukaryotic cells can use it as either an activator or a repressor of gene expression. As repressors, additional components like non-coding RNA may also be present.

What is the medium in which sound travels inside a bird's body?
Katena32 [7]
Bird sounds are made in the syrinx, but of course, the air sacs, passageways and  the bird's lungs, also contribute to the production of sounds.

When birds start to sing,the 2 passageways between the lung and the syrinx, closes. Then, the sir is squeezed into the air sacs by the chest muscles. Squeezing the air sacs that surrounds the syrinx forces each of the two thin membranes in the syrinx into the 2 passageways between the lung and the syrinx.This process does not allow air to travel through.Afterwhich, muscles around the syrinx contract and tighten one membrane and pulls it out into the passageway (1 of the passageway). Air in that passageway can now move,which passes quickly over the membrane. That fast moving air causes a vibration, thus, sound is produced.
