There are choices for this question namely:

a) "Exhale forcefully while the chest tube is being removed."
b) "While the chest tube is being removed, raise your arms above your head."
c) "During the removal of the chest tube, do not move because it will make the removal more painful."
<span>d) "When the tube is being removed, take a deep breath, exhale, and bear down."

The correct answer is "when the tube is being removed, take a deep breath, exhale, and bear down". This is called a Valsalva maneuver and this functions to prevent the air from leaking back to the pleural space and eventually prevent pneumothorax. After which, a clean, air tight, dressing shall be applied to the wound.</span>

Under which conditions are the lac structural genes expressed most efficiently?
madam [21]

Lac genes are most effectively expressed in presence of Lactose and its analogs when glucose is absent.

Explanation:

A unit of prokaryotic gene expression and regulation,which includes structural genes and regulatory sequences recognized by regulatory gene product is called operon.

<em>Lac </em>structural genes are a part of<em> Lac</em> operon. The <em>Lac </em>operon consists of three, structural genes,an operator and a promoter.The product of Lac operon is involved in the conversion of disaccharide lactose into glucose and Galactose.

Lactose and its analogs are inducers of<em> Lac </em>operon. So, the structural genes are best expressed in presence of Lactose. Glucose and galactose are repressors of lac gene so the genes are repressed in presence of glucose.
