Please find the detailed explanation of this statement below
Explanation:
Firstly, a repressed gene is a gene whose expression has been inhibited or repressed. The lac operon in E.coli bacteria is a regulatory unit containing structural genes, a single promoter and operator regions. The promoter is the region where the transcription enzyme (RNA polymerase) binds to in order to transcribe the genes in the lac operon. The structural genes in the lac operon can only be expressed in the presence of lactose sugar.
However, in the absence of lactose, LAC REPRESSOR, which is a transcription factor (protein), prevents the binding of RNA polymerase to the PROMOTER region by binding to the OPERATOR region of the lac operon. This inhibits the expression of the lactose genes in the operon.
Note that, the structural genes in the lac operon (lacZ, lacY, lacA) code for proteins that help break down lactose sugar for energy in the E.coli bacteria. Therefore, a bacteria cell with a repressed lac operon will be unable to degrade lactose sugar.
In DNA the sugar used is called deoxyribose whereas in RNA the sugar is ribose (hence DNA and RNA). The important structural difference between the two types of RNA is that mRNA takes on the shape of a line whereas tRNA has a clover-like shape.
Answer:
I assume you are referring to bees?
Explanation:
From what I know and this is just surface level knowledge, she is the one who births the hive and usually designates their purpose once she has laid the eggs. She herself does not do much, she is just the one that the infrastructure of the hive follows in maintaining the hive itself. I hope this helps. Good luck!
