Answer:

To move substances against a concentration or electrochemical gradient, a cell must use energy. Active transport mechanisms do just this, expending energy (often in the form of ATP) to maintain the right concentrations of ions and molecules in living cells.

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

A = Activator

B = Effector

Explanation:

An activator is a protein which typically binds to a short (50–1500 bp) region of DNA which might be located either upstream (mainly) or downstream of a gene so as to cause increased transcription. This particular region of DNA is known as enhancer and activator is also  known as transcription factor. Activator is a trans-acting factor which binds to the cis-acting factor which is enhancer so as to enhance transcriptional expression.

But another protein named as effector may restrict activator from binding to the enhancer leading to a decrease in transcriptional expression by binding to the activator allosterically. Allosteric binding of effector to the activator causes conformational change in activator so it can no longer bind the enhancer.

Which statement is true of DNA?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

A purine always forms a complementary base pair with a pyrimidine.

Explanation:

Purine bases such as Adenine pair specifically with Thymine , a pyrimidine base forming two bonds; just as Guanine pair specifically with Cytosine forming three bonds.

This specific base pairing are complimentary in nature and grants stability to the DNA.
