Answer:
a. + glucose, + lactose = On
b. - glucose, - lactose = Off
c. + glucose, - lactose = Off
d. - glucose, + lactose = On
Explanation:
Lac operon has both types of control, repressible and inducible.
Whenever glucose level is low in the cell, an enzyme known as adenylyl cyclase raises the level of cAMP which forms a dimer with CRP protein and they both act as activator of lac operon and cause expression.
Apart from this, when lactose is present in the cell, β-galactosidase enzyme metabolizes lactose to form allolactose which causes allosteric repulsion in the lac repressor and causes its removal from the operator. As soon as repressor is removed lac operon gets activated.
In wild type lac operons, the expression of lac operon occurs when glucose level is low in the cell and lactose is present but in this mutant presence or absence of glucose will not make a difference because CRP will bind Plac promoter independent of cAMP level i.e. activator CRP will work even in high glucose concentration. If lactose is present then lac operon will always express so in option 'a & d' lac operon will express but in option 'b & c' it will not express.
Answer:
Carbon dioxide, which is naturally in the atmosphere, dissolves into seawater. Water and carbon dioxide combine to form carbonic acid (H2CO3), a weak acid that breaks (or “dissociates”) into hydrogen ions (H+) and bicarbonate ions (HCO3-).
Explanation:
<span>The cell cycle is divided into two main parts interphase and mitosis. Mitosis is when the cell divides and this process is taken up by the process of dividing. Interphase is broken down into several phases: G1, growth occurs (cytoplasm increases); S, DNA synthesis (replication) occurs; and G2, growth occurs (cytoplasm increases and organelles are replicated).
So the answer is b) Cytoplasm increases, and organelles and DNA are replicated</span>
