Many Cnidarians eat small planktonic animals that they catch with their tentacles and stinging nematocysts. They don't go "hunting" but have to wait for their prey to blunder into the tentacles. Once this has happened other tentacles are brought to the prey to secure capture and subdue it with more stinging cells. The larger jellyfish can capture small fish this way too.Cnidarians have tentacles that are around the mouth which help them to catch and eat food, they use their nematocysts to fire out barbs or toxins at the prey to kill, injure, or paralyze them. Almost all cnidarians are carnivores, and feed mainly on shrimps, amphipods, plankton, and any other small organism that gets trapped in the tentacles. Once the prey is entangled in the discharged nematocysts it is moved into the mouth and digested in its gastrovascular cavity.

mariarad [96]

Answer:

transcription initiation

Explanation:

Transcription is a process by which genetic information from DNA is used to synthesize an RNA molecule, usually, a messenger RNA (mRNA), which is subsequently utilized to synthesize a protein by a process called translation. Transcription in prokaryotes has three steps:

1-Initiation: the RNA polymerase is a multisubunit enzyme (holoenzyme) composed of two α, one β, one β’ and one ω and σ subunits (α2ββ’ωσ). This holoenzyme binds to the promoter region of the template DNA strand.

2-Elongation. The sigma σ factor of the holoenzyme is released and the complex and the core enzyme (α2 ββω) moves along the template strand, thereby producing an mRNA sequence

3-Termination. This step can be Rho-dependent, where a protein named "Rho" recognizes the termination site and stop transcription, and Rho-independent (transcription continues until the termination sequence is reached).

In consequence, Rifamycin is likely to block the initiation of transcription because the core RNA enzyme needs to bind the sigma factor (σ) for initiation of transcription in bacteria.
