Answer:
Explanation:since T- represent tallness
t-dwarf plant
TT- means the plant is homozygous tall i.e the allele T is the same 100% talk
Tt- means the plant is heterozygote tall which implied that though this plant express tallness its still have gene for shortness hidden in its cell and if crossed with a plant that is dwarf some of the offspring will be dwarf.
From the test cross all the gametes are heterozyote - Tt Tt Tt Tt
Answer:
Please find the detailed explanation of this statement below
Explanation:
Firstly, a repressed gene is a gene whose expression has been inhibited or repressed. The lac operon in E.coli bacteria is a regulatory unit containing structural genes, a single promoter and operator regions. The promoter is the region where the transcription enzyme (RNA polymerase) binds to in order to transcribe the genes in the lac operon. The structural genes in the lac operon can only be expressed in the presence of lactose sugar.
However, in the absence of lactose, LAC REPRESSOR, which is a transcription factor (protein), prevents the binding of RNA polymerase to the PROMOTER region by binding to the OPERATOR region of the lac operon. This inhibits the expression of the lactose genes in the operon.
Note that, the structural genes in the lac operon (lacZ, lacY, lacA) code for proteins that help break down lactose sugar for energy in the E.coli bacteria. Therefore, a bacteria cell with a repressed lac operon will be unable to degrade lactose sugar.
