This state is characteristic for recessive traits. For an individual to express a recessive trait, it must have two recessive alleles (one of two or more alternative forms of a gene) of the responsible gene. But, if it has one recessive allele and one dominant allele, it will not have the trait, but he will be called a carrier. So, it seems like the trait "disappeared" but still it is "carried" in the genome. However, if its offspring has two recessive alleles and express the trait, it will <span>seem </span>like the trait "reappeared".

Viefleur [7K]
The statement "When levels of the amino acid are high, it binds to the repressor, allowing synthesis of this amino acid to proceed" (A).

E. coli needs amino acids to survive. It can ingest the amino acid, Tryptophan from the environment. When the levels of Tryptophan are low, it can synthesize Tryptophan by using enzymes that are encoded in five genes. These genes lie next to each other in the tryptophan operon. If tryptophan is available in the environment, E. coli will not synthesize it.

Firm, rubbery matrix is a structural feature of which connective tissue type?
cestrela7 [59]

Connective tissues are the tissues that are responsible to connect, support, bind, or to separate out other tissues or organs,that have relatively few cells embedded in an amorphous matrix, often with collagen or other fibers, that includes cartilaginous, fatty, and elastic tissues. Cartilaginous tissues are responsible for the firm, rubbery matrix that provides flexibility. These tissues give shape to the external ear, the larynx  (voice box) which is the most easily palpated cartilages in the body, and to the tip of the nose.
