• why is gc typically limited to molecules that weigh less than 400 amu?
Anna35 [415]

Gas chromatography (GC) is a method of separating mixed compounds. The separation will depend on each compound's retention time. Compounds with higher molecular weights will elute out slower than those with lower molecular weight. This is due to their difference in boiling points. The larger the structure, the higher the boiling point.

Which of these would be considered a cis-regulatory element for a gene? Group of answer choices
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "A region of DNA sequence upstream of a gene where transcription factors bind".

Explanation:

Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) are fragments of DNA that do not encode to a protein, but regulate the transcription of nearby genes. CREs regulation is based on binding to transcription factors. These elements are vital for the regulation of complex molecular mechanisms that involve the participation of multiple genes. Additionally, CREs could participate in pleiotropy (a single gene being responsible for the development of multiple traits), because a single transcription factor could bind to different CREs.
