Egg laying in fruit flies can be triggered (induced) when males deposit their sperm in the spermathecae of the females. What is
ElenaW [278]

When males place their sperm in the females' spermathecae, fruit flies can start laying eggs (a process known as induction). Induced egg laying has the selection benefit of ensuring that a male fly's sperm is utilized for fertilization, which is beneficial for male flies.

  • The spermatheca is an ectodermal organ that only develops in Queens and is not present in workers.
  • Spermathecae gets sperm from the male during mating.
  • Because it assures that a male fly's sperm is used for fertilization, induced egg laying for male flies has this benefit.

Thus from the above points, we can conclude that egg laying in the fruit flies had an adantage.

The operon model of the regulation of gene expression in bacteria was proposed by _____. the operon model of the regulation of g
aleksley [76]

<span>Discovery</span>

The operon model (Lac operon) of the regulation of gene expression in bacteria was proposed by Jacob and Monod and hey got noble prize in 1965 in Physiology and Medicine for this discovery.

 Definition

<span>                 “</span><span>Operons are cluster of coregulated bacterial genes which regulate other genes responsible for protein synthesis” </span>

Explanation

                     <span>Operons were first studied in the bacterium E.coli, and they involve the enzyme of lactose metabolism and tryptophan biosynthesis. </span>

Structure of Operon

<span>                     </span>Operon is generally composed of three basic DNA components:

1. Promotor:

<span>                     It is a nucleotide sequence which is recognized by RNA polymerase and initiate transcription.</span>

2. Operator:

                     It is a segment of DNA that is present between the promotor and other genes to be transcribed. In presence of repressor, RNA polymerase is physically obstructed and cannot transcribe the genes. In the absence of repressor, operator is active and start transcription of other proteins.

3. Structural genes:

                                   <span>These genes are responsible for synthesis of targeted proteins under the influence of operator<span>.  </span></span>

Example of operon model:

                                      <span>          In bacteria two operon model have been extensively studied, these are:</span>

<span>                  a. Lac Operon, and</span>

<span>                  b. Tryptophan operon</span>

How would an object blocking a bronchus affect its airflow?
igomit [66]
Because the lung has two bronchi, it can still function if one bronchus is blocked by a foreign object. No gas exchange will happen to the affected side, and the other lung will compensate for the loss of air. The blocked portion though can become inflamed and can lead to infection and damage.

The structure of a human skin cell differs from that of a human muscle cell. The two cells most likely have different __________
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - functions.

Explanation:

The structure of the skin cells and muscle cells are different and have a different number of cell organelles on their role in the body. Skin cells are a special type of cells that keep on shedding and replaced by new ones therefore they need less energy and have many mitochondria.

In contrast, muscle cells have different structures as they need a high amount of energy to make movements and therefore have lots of mitochondria in the cell.
