Suppose there is a protein "A" which binds to a DNA sequence and increases transcription of the gene CBC23. In the presence of m

olecule "C", protein "A" changes structure and can no longer bind to the DNA sequence, resulting in reduced transcription of CBC23. What terms describe "A" and "C" respectively?

Answer:

A = Activator

B = Effector

Explanation:

An activator is a protein which typically binds to a short (50–1500 bp) region of DNA which might be located either upstream (mainly) or downstream of a gene so as to cause increased transcription. This particular region of DNA is known as enhancer and activator is also  known as transcription factor. Activator is a trans-acting factor which binds to the cis-acting factor which is enhancer so as to enhance transcriptional expression.

But another protein named as effector may restrict activator from binding to the enhancer leading to a decrease in transcriptional expression by binding to the activator allosterically. Allosteric binding of effector to the activator causes conformational change in activator so it can no longer bind the enhancer.

All of the following statements about the understanding of culture in anthropology are correct except:
matrenka [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a. "Culture is biologically and genetically transmitted from person to person".

Explanation:

Culture is defined as the behavior, customs, social forms, arts and other manifestations of human achievement that characterize a place or group of people. Culture is transmitted through different channels in a process known as enculturation. The channels of enculturation are related with people's immigration and embracing the customs of society. Culture is NOT biologically and genetically transmitted from person to person, because culture is not the result of action of molecules or chemicals, but people acting towards and identity.

qaws [65]

The answer is macrophages. They either actively invade these leukocytes or are phagocytosed, divide in the cells and cause lysis. The promastigotes that invade these leucocytes are transformed into amastigotes in the macrophages. These amastigotes continue attacking other healthy macrophages while others migrate to the mid gut.
