The human stomach secretes an enzyme known as pepsin. This enzyme breaks down proteins into smaller chemical molecules called pe

ptides. If pepsin was mixed in a laboratory with sugar molecules like glucose, what is the MOST LIKELY result?
Question 13 options:

Pepsin will break down glucose molecules into simpler substances.

Pepsin will react with glucose only if the necessary RNA molecules are present.

Pepsin will probably NOT react with the sugar glucose since it is an enzyme that breaks down proteins.

Pepsin will probably NOT react with glucose since the activity of enzymes is limited to the human body.

Which of the following best describes the biological role of the lac operon? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following best
Verdich [7]

Answer:

It ensures that a cell dedicates resources to the production of enzymes involved in lactose metabolism only when lactose is available in the environment

Explanation:

Lac operon is also referred to as Lactose operon.This operon helps in the transport and metabolism of lactose of many enteric bacteria.

It ensures that a cell dedicates resources to the production of enzymes involved in lactose metabolism only when lactose is available in the environment

Due to the fact that it would be a total waste to produce enzymes when no lactose is available or if another preferable energy source such as glucose were available. The lac operon uses a two-part control mechanism to ensure that the cell uses energy producing the enzymes encoded by the lac operon only when necessary to avoid wastage and abnormalities.
