Why don't cells continue to grow as an organism grows larger

Body cells don't live long. They only live a couple of weeks or months. The only thing is that white blood cells live a lot longer than red blood cells. They don't grow larger because cells are microscopic. They have to be able to fit through arteries and veins in the body. There must be enough to supply oxygen towards the organs in the body. Cells are made in the bone marrow and are produced in the same size. Unless you have a disease like sickle cell anemia, your cells are round, small, and microscopic.

"compare and contrast the pathogenicity of clostridium botulinum and clostridium tetani, including mechanisms of action of their
Sergeu [11.5K]
The two bacteria are considered to be anaerobic endospore-formers that deliver neurotoxins. Disease comes about when the endospores are brought profound into the tissues. The two neurotoxins meddle with engine control. Botulism poison, delivered by C. botulinum, ties the cytoplasmic films of engine neurons at the neurotransmitter and keeps the arrival of acetylcholine neurotransmitter and, subsequently, forestalls motioning to muscle cells. At the point when muscle cells don't get signals from engine neurons, they stay loose, bringing about a flabby loss of motion. The absence of engine control delivers a not insignificant rundown of side effects, the most genuine of which is a respiratory disappointment, on the grounds that respiratory muscles can be influenced by botulism poison.

What is the determining factor for the transcription of structural genes of the trp operon?
padilas [110]

The right answer is 3. the availability of tryptophan in the environment

The TRP operon regulation depends on the availability of the tryptophan molecule (it depends if the cell need tryptophan or already has it).

There are two modes of regulation of the trp operon: Suppression and Mitigation

*Repression

The synthesis of operon mRNA is controlled by a repressor that blocks transcription when bound by tryptophan, which acts as a co-repressor.

The repressor, a 108 aa homodimer (ie 2 apo-repressor), has helix-turn-helix domains that interact with inverted repeats at the major groove of the operator, thus allowing its fixation.

In the absence of trp, the repressor is inactive and does not attach to the operator. The RNA polymerase can bind to the promoter and transcribe the trp E, D, C, B, A structural genes.

In the presence of trp, the repressor changes conformation and becomes active, so it binds to the operator, preventing RNA polymerase from accessing the promoter so transcription will not occur.

* The Attenuation

This is a premature termination of transcription that is a function of Trp concentration. It takes place at a late moment of transcription while regulation by repression is done during the initiation.

1st Case: Low Trp Rate, Continuous Transcription, → Formation of the Anti-attenuator in the absence of trp, and therefore the synthesis of tryptophan is continued.

2nd case: High rate of trp, stop transcription, → Formation of the attenuator in the presence of trp. This one will attenuate the synthesis of tryptophan.
