The lac repressor protein is bound to the operator region of the lac operon when there is no lactose in the medium. When introduced in lactose, it binds to an allosteric site on the repressor causing its to change conformation and release from the operator. This allows the polymerase that is bound to the promoter region to proceed transcription of the lac operon genes (LacZ, Lac A, and Lac Y). Translation of these genes forms enzymes that enable the organism to break down lactose for energy.

In the diagram, what type of mutation is shown?
jeka94

Answer:

substitution - a base was changed

Explanation:

The nucleotide sequence CTT was changed to the sequence CAT. The T was substituted with an A. This changed the encoded amino acid from Glu to Val.

An insertion is where an additional base is added (e.g. if the sequence changed from CTT to CATT)

A deletion is when a base is lost (e.g. if the sequence changed from CTT to CT)

Dark fur color seems to have the greatest selective advantage because of their hard physical body which occurs due to extreme environmental conditions. The dark colour of mice occurs due to the high intensity of sunlight which increases melanin in their skin. These dark colour mice pass through a very hard and extreme environmental conditions so that's why Dark fur color seems to have the greatest selective advantage.

According to the passage, which mechanism explains the observed changes in fish size over time?

A. Smaller fish produce fewer eggs than larger fish do, so they contribute fewer offspring to the next

generation.

B. Fish that are small enough to escape fishing nets are more likely to survive than larger fish.

C. Scientists found that Atlantic silversides exhibited changes in feeding and foraging rates after four

generations of selection,
