Answer:

c. the plant root growing down into the soil

Explanation:

The plant root going down deep into the soil is an example of positive gravitropism. Gravity pulls everything towards the center of earth i.e. downwards and roots follow the direction of gravity automatically by growing downward towards soil that is why it is known as positive gravitropism. In short we can say that root favors the direction of gravity.

Shoot on the other hand show negative geotropism/gravitropism i.e. it grows towards the opposite direction of gravity. Shoot grow towards upside direction i.e. away from the surface towards sky.

Under what conditions does the trp repressor block transcription of the trp operon? (A) when the repressor binds to the inducer

Brilliant_brown [7]

The trp repressor blocks transcription of the trp operon (B) when the repressor binds to tryptophan.

trp operon or the tryptophan operon codes enzymes for the amino acid tryptophan. The operon is on when the tryptophan is low in amount whereas the operon is off when the tryptophan is low in amount. The operon is an assimilation of five genes.

Repressor is a small protein that is supposed to prevent the synthesis of proteins. It does so binding to the operator gene. Therefore, presence or absence of repressor is a determining factor for an operon to be on or off.

External ear structure that helps to localize the direction from which sound arises

Step2247 [10]

The external ear structure is called the Pinna.

The Pinna helps to channel sound waves into the ear.

Many animals have the ability to move their pinna towards the direction of sound.

I have attached an image of a dog's ear to show you the external structure called the Pinna.

I hope this helps! I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have :)
