Answer:

The given blank can be filled with operator.

Explanation:

The proteins that assist in turning on or turning off the function of a specific gene by getting combined with certain sections of the DNA are known as transcription factors. The transcription factors that activate the transcription of a specific gene are known as activators, while that prevents transcription and is termed as repressors.

A repressor can be an RNA or a DNA binding protein, which prevents the articulation of genes by getting combined with the operator. A repressor, which binds with DNA prevents RNA polymerase from getting combined with the promoter, which further inhibits the transcription of the genes into mRNA.

What is the maximum number of hours that food can be held in the food danger zone?

Agata [3.3K]

To answer this question, let us first mention what is food danger zone. Well, this refers to the temperature range in which bacteria grows faster in the food. The range is defined as 30 to 140 degree Fahrenheit or can be converted into 4 to 60 degree Celsius. Going back to the question, the maximum number of hours that a food can be held in the food danger zone is only 2 hours. Beyond this 2 hours, the food is not safe to be eaten and the person who dares to eat this food might get some illness and worst might experienced food poisoning.

The cycads, a mostly tropical phylum of gymnosperms, evolved about 300 million years ago and were dominant forms during the age

ozzi

Answer:

poliinators and flagellated sperm

Explanation:

Cycads (phylum Cycadophyta) together with Ginkgophyta, Gnetophyta, Pinophyta, Pteridospermales and Cordaitales belong to the gymnosperms (naked seed-producing plants). They are different than angiosperms which produce encased seeds within an ovary.

Cycads (but also Ginkgo) produce swimming sperm that is different than all other groups which produce sperm without swimming flagella.

Also, unlike other groups of gymnosperms, cycads have specialized pollinators, beetls.

How does semi-conservative replication help prevent mutations during DNA replications?

Llana [10]

DNA replication is the process by which two DNA molecules are produced from one parent DNA molecule. DNA replication is semi conservative, this implies that, each strand in the double helix DNA molecule act as a template for the synthesis of a new, complimentary DNA strand. Because semi conservative method has a DNA template that is already accurately formed, the probability of having errors in the newly formed strand is drastically reduced.

Women who wish to become pregnant should have sexual intercourse after a surge in: women who wish to become pregnant should have

Mrac [35]

I believe the answer is luteinizing hormone. Luteinizing hormone also known as lutropin is a hormone produced by the anterior pituitary gland. The hormone is considered a gonadotrophic hormone because of its role in controlling the function of ovaries in females and testes in males which are known as the gonads. In females it controls the length and sequence of the female menstrual cycle, including ovulation, preparation of the uterus for implantation of a fertilized egg, and ovarian production of both estrogen and progesterone.
