Answer:
e. PhoU keeps PhoR bound to the phosphate transporter protein Pst
Explanation:
PhoU is a membrane protein known to regulate the transport of phosphate (Pi) between cellular compartments. It has been discovered that mutations in this protein cause lethality because the cell becomes incapable of controlling the intracellular levels of Pi, this being toxic for the cell. PhoR is a histidine kinase/phosphatase. When the Pi level is considered to be a limiting factor, PhoR autophosphorylates at a histidine residue and then donates its phosphoryl group to PhoB. On the other hand, when the Pi level is high, this protein removes the phosphoryl group from phospho-PhoB. Finally, the Pst is a signal transduction protein that acts as a transporter capable of switching its conformation during the transport of PI.

Answer:
The correct option is <em>C. A gene is a specific segment of DNA on a chromosome</em>
Explanation:
Option A is false because a gene is a segment on a chromosome.
Option B is false because a chromosome carries many genes.
Option D is false because a gene carries a segment of DNA, not all of the DNA.
Option C is correct because there are many genes present on a single chromosome. Each gene carries a segment of DNA. The position of a gene on the chromosome is known as its loci.
