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.

Given a population that contains genetic variation, what is the correct sequence of the following events under the influence of
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

2. A change occurs in the environment.

4. Poorly adapted individuals have decreased survivorship.

1. Well-adapted individuals leave more offspring than do poorly adapted individuals.

3. Genetic frequencies within the population change.

Explanation:

The natural selection theory was developed by Darwin to explain how evolution occur within a population. The environment is in constant state of changes and always select for organisms that are better adapted to it.

Poorly adapted organisms gradually reduce from the population as a result of decreased survival while well-adapted individuals multiply and contribute more to successive generation.

Well-adapted individuals pass on the adaptive alleles to their offspring, eventually leading to a change in gene frequencies within the population.

Hence, the sequence of events is 2, 4, 1 and 3.

Answer:

"DRY MIX"

Dependent responding (variable) X axis

Manipulated independent (variable) Y axis

The drinks is the dependent variable because it "responds" to the temperature and is "dependent" on the temperature. The temperature determines the drinks sold-but the drinks sold doesn't determine the temperature.
