Tryptophan is an amino acid necessary for E. coli survival and growth. E. coli contain genes coding for enzymes that synthesize

tryptophan. These genes are grouped together on a segment of DNA called the tryptophan (trp) operon. Cells can use these enzymes to synthesize tryptophan when it is not present in the environment. However, when tryptophan is already present in the environment, cellular resources are shifted away from manufacturing the enzymes for tryptophan synthesis. Tryptophan binds with and activates the trp repressor, which then binds to the trp promoter and blocks RNA polymerase. Blocking RNA polymerase decreases the normal transcription rate of the operon. The tryptophan (trp) operon consists of a promoter, an operator, and 5 trp genes. What type of regulation does the trp operon exhibit? protein modification positive regulation negative regulation translational regulation

Answer:

Negative regulation

Explanation:

In the trp operon, tryptophan binds to the repressor protein, then this complex binds to operator effectively blocking gene transcription preventing the production of enzymes that aids in the synthesis of tryptophan. This happens when high levels of tryptophan is detected. This, it is a  repressible/negative type of regulation.

nignag [31]

Shallow groove on the surface of the cortex is called sulcus.

Cortex means the outer layer of an inner organ. The outer layer of the cerebrum is called cerebral cortex, where cerebrum occupies the biggest part of the brain. A human being has four lobes of the cerebral cortex which include temporal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and frontal lobe.

Cortex has six layers of different types of neurons which are responsible for higher information processing and thinking. Cerebral cortex controls general movement, behavioural reactions, perception and visceral functions. We term the grooved layer as the brain itself.Cerebral cortex consists of large amounts of sulci and gyri(sulcus and gyri in singular). The number of gyri correlates to the processing ability of the animal.A man has big gyri compared to a rat.

7. In some chickens, the gene for feather color is controlled by codominance. The allele for black is B and the allele for white
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Genotype is the genetic composition of organisms and a gene is made up of two alleles.</em>

a) Since the allele for black is B, <u>the genotype for black chickens would be BB. </u>

b) Since the allele for white is W, <u>the genotype for white chickens would be WW.</u>

c) Since erminette color is heterozygous,<u> the genotype would be BW.</u>

d) Two erminette were crossed:

         BW    x    BW

      BB BW BW WW

i. <em>Probability of having black chick (BB) </em>= 1/4

ii. <em>Probability of having a white chick (WW)</em> = 1/4

iii. <em>Probability of having erminette chicken (BW)</em> = 1/2

Biologists often determine population density by capturing animals and marking them for later identification upon recapture. A b
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

I think the answer is A

Explanation:

Since the question states that they want to determine the population of the desert mice. You get the direct answer from just using context clues. Since population means one species in a certain area, it means that this method will work if the mice stay in the same area.

ATP is adenosine triphosphate, it is like a fully charged battery in a cell, ADP is basically ATP that has been drained of its energy from a chemical reaction. It is like a dead battery that can be recharged later   ;)
