Only the proteins that the bacteria Escherichia coli (E. coli) needs are synthesized at any given time. For example, when lactos

e is available in the environment, E. coli will express the lac genes that allow it to break down lactose to obtain energy. When lactose is not present, these genes are not expressed.

Answer:

The Lac repressor is preventing genes being expressed most of the time.

Explanation:

The Lac repressor protein, LacI, prevents the transcription of genes involved in lactose utilization.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The <u>Acidophilic Microbial</u> Community has low diversity with microorganisms primarily in Leptospirillum groups II and III and from Ferroplasma types I and II.

Explanation:

An acidophilic microorganism or plant is one which grows best in acidic conditions.

They are also referred to as microorganisms which occur in acidic natural (solfataric fields, sulphuric pools) and man-made (eg. Acid mine drainage) environments.

Acidophilic Microbes otherwise known as Acidophiles are an ecologically and economically important group.

They possess networked cellular adaptations for regulating intracellular pH. Several extracellular enzymes from acidophilic microbes are known to be functional at much lower pH than that inside the cells.

Acid stable enzymes have applications in several industries such as starch, baking, fruit juice processing, animal feed and pharmaceuticals, and some of them have already been commercialized. Acidophiles are widely used in bio-leaching of metals from low grade ores

Recent studies show that acidophiles are currently being considered to be utilized in bio-conversion and bio-remediation, as well as in microbial fuel cells to generate electricity.

Acidophilic microbes of similar characteristics are classifed in groups for ease of study and identification.

Leptospirillum Group II and II as well as Ferroplasma types I and II are groups of acidophilic microorganisms within the Acidophillic Microbial community.

Cheers!

Why does protein concentration increase from the arterial blood to the postglomerular blood
siniylev [52]
<span>Proteins have a very high molecular weight and cannot be present as macro molecules in the glomerular blood. Before even reaching the blood, they are well masticated and processed to simple amino acids and other nitrogenous compounds like urea, uric acid etc. (in the digestive system itself). They are eliminated from the body while glomerular filtration through urine. The glomerular blood thus becomes free from such compounds before leaving the kidney.</span>
