The trp repressor blocks transcription of the trp operon (B) when the repressor binds to tryptophan.

trp operon or the tryptophan operon codes enzymes for the amino acid tryptophan. The operon is on when the tryptophan is low in amount whereas the operon is off when the tryptophan is low in amount. The operon is an assimilation of five genes.

Repressor is a small protein that is supposed to prevent the synthesis of proteins. It does so binding to the operator gene. Therefore, presence or absence of repressor is a determining factor for an operon to be on or off.

The optimum environment for pepsin is?
Anna007 [38]
<span>Pepsin is an enzyme that breaks down proteins into amino acids in the stomach (where the pH is 1-3). Pepsin needs to be in an acidic environment to be activated. The optimum temperature is between 30 oC and 40 oC because the average human body temperature is 37 oC. The optimum pH is the acidic one because your stomach has an acidic pH.</span>

Suppose the two possible alleles for the height gene are tall and short. If short is recessive to tall, provide the symbol repre
navik [9.2K]

Phenotype - short , Tall

Genotype - tt (short) , TT or Tt (tall)

<u>Explanation:</u>

In Mendelian Genetics, <em>Dominant traits</em> are represented by capital letters and <em>Recessive traits</em> are represented by small letters.

So if height is the character considered, then the traits would be short and tall.

Tall is the dominant phenotype and short is the recessive phenotype.

The alleles of the gene for height are T and t.

The genotype for Tall trait is TT or Tt.

The genotype for short trait is tt.

Therefore, the symbol representation of phenotype (Tall) is TT or Tt and for phenotype (short) is tt.
