Answer:
The correct answer is C. A buildup of lactic acid in the tissues.
Sore muscles after vigorous exercise are the result of lactic acid accumulation in the muscles.
Vigorous exercise reduces the levels of oxygen available in the muscles due to which complete oxidation of the glucose could not take place.
Muscle cells switch to another process called as lactic acid fermentation to produce energy. In this process, lactate dehydrogenase converts pyruvate into lactate and reduces NADH to NAD⁺.
This NAD⁺ enables the continuation of glycolysis which results in the production of net 2 ATP.
In addition, influx of materials such as nutrients, WBC, anti-inflammatory compounds etc into the muscle cell (for repair) causes swelling of the muscle fibers which is also the reason for the muscle soreness.
Answer: Promoter
Explanation:
Transcription is the first step in gene expression which consists of copying the DNA sequence of a gene to produce a RNA molecule. There are enzymes called <u>RNA polymerases which perform this process of transcription</u>. These enzymes bind nucleotides (the monomers which are part of the nucleic acids) to create a RNA strand using a DNA strand as a mold.
A promoter is a region of DNA that controls the initiation of transcription of a given portion of DNA to RNA. Therefore they promote the transcription of a gene. <u>The promoter region is composed of a specific sequence of DNA located just where the starting point of the DNA transcription is</u> and contains the information needed to activate or deactivate the gene it regulates. <u>The promoter has a binding site for the RNA polymerase enzyme </u>in charge of mRNA synthesis and when it recognizes this site, transcription begins.
As I had said before, but was deleted, the amino acid was Histidine, this is known because of the codon is CAU, and is found from various tables that show the codons and their corresponding amino acids.
D) creates a variety of intercellular enviroment
