Answer: D. Jacob and Monod
Explanation:
An operon is a region of DNA that consists of a single gene regulated by more than one promoter. An operon is a region of RNA that consists of the coding regions of more than one gene. RNA polymerase is the enzyme that binds to promoters and transcribes the coding regions of genes into RNA.
Jacques Monod was the first to demonstrate the preference for certain substrates over others through his studies of E. coli’s growth when cultured in the presence of two different substrates simultaneously.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-A.
Explanation:
Lac operon is a set of genes arranged sequentially for lactose metabolism in E.coli. The lac operon gets activated in the presence of lactose as the lac operon consists of three enzyme coding genes called lacZ which codes for the β-galactosidase enzyme, lacY which codes for lactose permease, lacA which codes for acetyltransferase along with a regulatory gene called lacI which codes for repressor proteins.
The repressor proteins bind to the operator and control the transcription. When it binds to operator its huts off the transcription. If a mutation occurs in the laci gene then the protein will lose the machinery which will turn off the activity of enzymes and will lead to the constitutive expression of the genes irrespective of the inducer present or not.
Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
Answer:
Yy
Explanation:
Y is for yellow body because it is dominant and y is for blue body so Yy
