Transcription factors are necessary for an initiation of transcription at a regulated gene but not sufficient.

Transcription is the first step of gene expression in which DNA molecule is copied (transcribed) into RNA (mRNA) by RNA polymerase. The process of transcription is divided into three phases:

1. Initiation

• RNA polymerase with transcriptional factors bind to gene promoter Transcription factors can enhance the interaction between RNA polymerase and a DNA sequence- promoter, encouraging the expression of the gene. Such transcription factors are called activators. Otherwise, when the gene expression is inhibited, factors are called repressors and they bind to sequence –operator.

• RNA polymerase unwinds DNA double helix (transcription bubble is formed)

2. Elongation

• RNA polymerases adds nucleotides complementary to DNA  

3. Termination

• RNA polymerase gets to stop codon (transcribes a sequence of DNA known as a terminator)

• Formed complementary RNA strand is released from DNA-RNA complex

Explanation:

There could be serious consequences of using the wrong ammunition when a firearm is being loaded. There could be damage done to the firearm, because the cartridge of the firearm could become lodged and could even explode. However, the most serious situation is the injury that the shooter could receive as result of the explosion. The data stamp of the ammunition must be checked to avoid this situation.

Using a food label, explain what each section will tell you and why that would be important to, say, a long-distance runner.
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

The following are the sections which can be seen in a food label:

1) Product dates:

Under this section look for the production date and the expiry date ( best before). The production date tells when the food was made. The expiry date tells the date before which the food has to be used.

2) Ingredient list:

The list of all the ingredients used for the preparation of the food is mentioned.

3) Nutrition Facts Label

At the top of this label, we will see the total number of servings and size of the container. Thus table shows some key nutrients and the percent of them present in the container of food. It also shows the calories of each. Percent Daily Value (DV) shows the percentage of each nutrient present.

The nutrient label are important to an athlete because he/she needs to take a diet which is capable of filling us nutrient requirements. Athletes tend to perform well when they have a balanced diet. To get a balanced diet, they need to look at the nutritional values.

Aquatic organisms in coastal areas face a variety of predators on land and in the water and air. Which ocean process exposes the
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

<em>The correct answer as to the ocean process that exposes the coastal organisms to land-based predators would be the daily tidal patterns that leave the coastal area exposed to the land for a part of the day.</em>

Some parts of the coastal areas become exposed to land during certain periods of the day as a result of tidal waves. When this happens, the aquatic organisms occupying these coastal areas become temporarily exposed to land predators who hunt and kill them for food.

<u>Therefore, the correct option is b. </u>
