Rough-skinned newts and common garter snakes are in an "evolutionary arms race." In this phenomenon, two species continually evo

lve adaptations against one another to increase their own chance of survival. Rough-skinned newts produce tetrodotoxin, a type of poison, as a defense mechanism. Most common garter snakes have some resistance to the toxin. In areas where common garter snakes and rough-skinned newts coexist, rough-skinned newts express very high levels of tetrodotoxin, and common garter snakes have evolved a very high degree of resistance to tetrodotoxin.
Based on this information, what is the most likely relationship between common garter snakes and rough-skinned newts?

A.
commensalism
B.
predator and prey
C.
facultative mutualism
D.
obligate parasitism

Answer:

The correct answer is : B.

Explanation:

  • The rough-skinned newts and common garter snakes exhibit a Prey-Predator relationship.
  • Here, the newt is the prey for the predator which is the snake.
  • The newt produces chemical substances which are toxic for the snakes so that they can avoid attack by the snakes.
  • In response, the snakes produce other chemical substances that can neutralise the toxic effect of the newt's toxins.

A transcriptional repressor that controls the transcription of gene A is not normally active unless bound by an effector molecul
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Transcription of gene A is not affected

Explanation:

A transcriptional repressor is a DNA/RNA-binding protein that acts to suppress gene expression and/or protein synthesis by binding to target sequences. Moreover, a silencer is a DNA region that binds to particular transcriptional repressors in order to suppress gene expression. In this case, the transcriptional repressor is activated by binding to an effector molecule X (e.g., another protein). In consequence, and since the activated repressor-X complex is not more able to bind the silencer of gene A, it is expected that such complex will not be able to affect transcription of the target gene.
