Using the car analogy for regulation of gene expression in which negative control is exerted by setting the parking brake and po

sitive control occurs by stepping on the gas pedal, which answer best defines a component of lac operon control?
a. inducer (lactose) = acts by stepping on the gas pedal

b. CAP binding site = part of gas pedal

c. repressor = releases the parking brake

d. operator = part of the gas pedal

Answer:

The correct answer is a inducer(lactose) = acts by stepping on the gas pedal.

Explanation:

In lac operon lactose act as an inducer.Lactose exerts its action by binding with the repressor and inducing a conformation al change in the repressor molecule and prevent the later from binding to the operator region.

   This ultimately result in the expression of the structural genes such as Lac Z ,Lac Y and Lac A.

  According to the given question if the lac operon is described using a car analogy then the inducer lactose will act by stepping on the the gas pedal and this is the positive regulation of Lac operon.

Match the following. 1. the basic building block of all forms of life resolving power 2. the idea of Schleiden and Schwann that
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

1. Cell

2. cell theory

3. Organismal theory

4. resolving power

Explanation:

The cell is the smallest known unit of all living organisms. They are called the building blocks of life. An organism can be unicellular (made up of one cell) or multi-cellular (made up of many cells).

2. Cell theory was formulated and developed  by Schleiden, Schwann, and Virchow. They are considered as the basic principles of biology.

It states:

1. Living organisms are made up of cells.

2. Cells are the basic unit of life.

3. Cells are formed from pre-existing cells.

4. Energy flows inside the cell.

5. DNA is passed on from cell to cell.

6. All cells have the same basic chemical composition.

3. Organismal theory is the intended counter-argument of the cell theory. It was developed by Reichert, Strasberger, Sherrington, and Pavlov. It argues that the basic unit of life is the organism itself, suggesting that an organism came about from a cell that expanded.

4. Resolving power is the ability of an optical instrument like a microscope or a telescope to view objects that are close together as separate, abling the viewer to distinguish the two from each other.

Discuss how scientists views on planetary paths have changed over time
Doss [256]

There were two approaches for the planetary paths. The idea about the planets revolving around the Earth, the planetary paths were plotted and were erratic. It was not relevant to the laws of motion and gravity. That fact was neglected by the believers in an Earth-centered Solar System. 

Sun-centered Solar System was theorized by Copernicus. The paths assumed to be relatively circular (or elliptical).
