Answer: Option D.

A region of DNA consisting of the promoter and operator sequences needed to regulate one or more structural genes.

Explanation:

An operon is a part of the the DNA that is found in bacteria or viruses which function in transcription and genetic regulation. Operon is under control of an operator, consist of promoter, regulator and structural genes. Operon is normally under the control of a single operator in which genes coding for protein are clustered along the DNA.

A brown eyed person marries another brown eyed person, but they have a blue eyed child.
Nookie1986 [14]
One of there ansestors must have had blue eyes, or might have been a genetic mutation. But it's rare to find such a random mutation. But we must keep in mind that reproduction of cells and when DNA is copied it could have a mutation. But the likely explanation would be that one of there ansestors or grand parents had blue eyes until the trait that forms brown eyes became more common in the family tree.

Two mutant flies both have white eyes (red is the normal eye color) but were each isolated in different labs and therefore have
maria [59]

Answer:

A) The eye colour may be controlled by one or more genes, mutation lies in two different genes and has complemented each other.

B) Parent 1: w1w1 w2+w2+ Parent 2:w1+ w1+w2w2

Gametes: w1 w2+ and w1+w2

Offspring genotype: w1 w2+ w1+ w2

Explanation:

This condition may be because of complementary genes. When the presence of two or more genes are required for a particular trait and the absent of one of the genes affects the character, it is referred to as complementary genes. In this condition the wild type of fly have AA/BB type of gene and expression of both gene is responsible for red coloured eyes.

a. Mutation in any of the genes, affect the accumulation of red pigment in eyes and cause the eyes to be white colored. Given that two mutants W1 and W2 have white eyes but both have mutation in different genes. Suppose W1 has mutation in AA gene(genotype aaBB )and mutant W2 has mutation in BB gene (genotype AAbb).

b. Crossing between mutants give red colour eyes fly:

Parents AAbb x aaBB

​Gametes Ab aB

​Progeny AaBb

That is,

Parent 1: w1w1 w2+w2+ Parent 2:w1+ w1+w2w2

Gametes: w1 w2+ and w1+w2

Offspring genotype: w1 w2+ w1+ w2

​Result: progeny of mutant have both type of functional alleles (A and B), responsible for red colour of eyes. Thus the progeny will be with red colour eyes.

Where is pryuvate made in the cell
MariettaO [177]

Answer: glycolysis in the cytoplasm

step-by-step-explanation: Pyruvate is produced by glycolysis in the cytoplasm, but pyruvate oxidation takes place in the mitochondrial matrix (in eukaryotes). So, before the chemical reactions can begin, pyruvate must enter the mitochondrion, crossing its inner membrane and arriving at the matrix
