Answer:b.are required for the expression of specific protein-encoding genes
Explanation:
Transcription factors are proteins that bind to enzyme RNA polymerase to aid transcription( coping of information on DNA to an intermediate mRNA.
They control the expression of a particular gene. A transcriptor can be a repressor or enhancer. A repressor when they inhibit the action of RNA polymerase by blocking it from attaching to promoter sequence or enhancer by binding to RNA polymerase to enhance transcription.
Transcriptor protein can work alone or work with other protein such as silencer.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Buoyant forces act on objects that are submerged in fluids. This includes gases and liquids.
Sexual reproduction produces offspring by the fusion of gametes, resulting in offspring genetically different from the parent(s). Asexual reproduction produces new individuals without the fusion of gametes, genetically indentical to the parent plants and each other, when mutations occur

Answer:
Seminal vesicle
Explanation:
Seminal vesicle secretes an alkaline and viscous fluid that constitutes about 60% of the volume of semen. The fluid secreted by seminal vesicle contains fructose which is a monosaccharide sugar, prostaglandins, and clotting proteins. The alkaline nature of the seminal fluid neutralizes the acidic environment of the male urethra and the female reproductive tract. This is required as the acidic conditions inactivate and kill sperm.
The fructose sugar serves a fuel for ATP production by sperm. Prostaglandins are responsible for sperm motility and viability as they stimulate smooth muscle contractions within the female reproductive tract. Therefore, a malfunctioning seminal vesicle would result in low semen volume and reduced motility due to the scarcity of energy.
