Answer:
9 amino acids
Explanation:
A segment of a gene that has 27 nucleotides will code for<u> 9 amino acids.</u>
<em>Each codon on the gene potentially represents an amino acid and a codon is made up of 3 nucleotides each. Hence, in order to find out the total number of amino acids that a gene segment with 27 nucleotides can code for, the number of nucleotides should be divided by 3.</em>
number of amino acids = number of nucleotides/3
27/3 = 9 codons/amino acids

Answer:
The gene for beta-galactosidase turns off.
Explanation:
The gene that codifies the beta-galactosidase enzyme is part of the <em>lac</em> operon, which also contains two other genes that produce enzymes involved in the metabolization of lactose.
Between glucose and lactose, the bacteria will preferentially use glucose as an energy source. On the other hand, lactose is a dimer, and thus a series of enzymes are needed to process lactose before its use as an energy source.
If there is no lactose present, the genes contained inside this operon are turned off (the operon is repressed).
