<h2>Carbon dioxide </h2>

Explanation:

Nuclear power plants are a type of power plant that use the process of nuclear fission in order to generate electricity and do this by using nuclear reactors, where the heat generated by the reactor converts water into steam, which spins a turbine and a generator

They get their thermal power from splitting the nuclei of atoms in their reactor core, with uranium being the dominant choice of fuel in the world today

As a fuel nuclear power plants use uranium and mining of uranium release carbon dioxide in high amount into the environment

Usatestprep--According to the model, what is the role of maltose in the maltose operon?
allsm [11]

Answer:

<u>Inducer</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Structural proteins within bacteria are encoded along with their functions. These are typically found in a block of genes called an operon. They undergo transcription together with the use of a single promoter sequence to form a polycystronic transcript- this allows for the simultaneous control and regulation of biochemical pathways. This is efficient as these pathways would either need to function together when "switched on" or will not be needed when "switched off". Repressors are proteins that effectively hinder translation by binding to DNA at the operator site, blocking the activity of RNA polymerase in transcription. However inducers are small molecules that can displace these, freeing up the operon for transcription and the activation of relevant biochemical pathways.

The mal operon includes genes which mediate the breakdown of the substrate maltose in bacterial cells. Maltose, called a malt sugar, is a carbohydrate compound made up of two glucose molecules joined by an α-(1,4) glycosidic linkage.

In the presence of maltose, the inducer binds to the activator. This then allows for the binding of RNA polymerase, which facilitates translation and th epr

A forest is cut down to plant a field of corn. How will this affect the biodiversity of the area?
zzz [600]
It would affect our environment very badly. The following reasons are why it is bad: 1)Trees are our main supply of oxygen. 2) Corn is slow at converting carbon dioxide into oxygen. 3) Many wildlife creatures (plants and animals) need that ecosystem to live.
