An endangered species is a type of species in which this type of organism has decreasing numbers and are dangerously close to going extinct. Invasive species are species in which an organism invades an environment where it is not native to, and take over the ecosystem. Local species are species in which the organism is native to that environment and plays a key role in that ecosystem. A keystone species is a species in which the organism is a key part of that ecosystem to thrive; without it, the ecosystem would collapse
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).
Answer:
CHK2, p53, p21, cell cycle progression.
Explanation:
In a normal cell with no LFS mutation, during the G1 stage of cell cycle progression, the CHK2 activates if there is damage in the DNA. CHK2 activates p53, which is a tumor suppressor protein that will hold the cell cycle in G1/S until the DNA is repaired. The p53 protein activates p21, a protein that binds to CDK2 and stops the cell cycle. The cell cycle will continue once the damage is repaired.
