Answer: Option C) A sentence in the instruction book

Explanation:

A gene is a specific portion on the DNA that code for a functional protein. i.e DNA consists of several genes, and some non-coding sequences that are usually spliced off during post-translational modification.

In other words, a gene can be best described as each single, meaningful sentence in the instruction book for building an organism.

I wanted to be with you alone

And talk about the weather

But traditions I can trace against the child in your face

Won't escape my attention

You keep your distance via the system of touch

And gentle persuasion

I'm lost in admiration, could I need you this much?

Oh, you're wasting my time

You're just, just, just wasting time

Something happens and I'm head over heels

I never find out until I'm head over heels

Something happens and I'm head over heels

Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart

Don't, don't, don't throw it away

Repressors are transcription factors that bind to _____________sequences in dna

Trava [24]

Answer:

The given blank can be filled with operator.

Explanation:

The proteins that assist in turning on or turning off the function of a specific gene by getting combined with certain sections of the DNA are known as transcription factors. The transcription factors that activate the transcription of a specific gene are known as activators, while that prevents transcription and is termed as repressors.

A repressor can be an RNA or a DNA binding protein, which prevents the articulation of genes by getting combined with the operator. A repressor, which binds with DNA prevents RNA polymerase from getting combined with the promoter, which further inhibits the transcription of the genes into mRNA.
