The protein thorain is encoded by the gene thrL, and thorain is a negative regulator of the thrMN operon. Assume there is no oth

er regulation taking place. Predict the phenotype of a thrL- mutant that encodes a nonfunctional thrL protein.
a. The thrM and thrN genes would be transcribed at higher levels compared to non-mutant.
b. The thrM and thrN genes would be transcribed all lower levels compared to non-mutant.
c. The thrM and thrN genes would not be transcribed

Answer:

The correct answer is option a, that is, the thrM and thrN would be transcribed at high levels in comparison to non-mutant.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, in the existence of thorain the expression of thrM and thrN will be prevented as thorain functions as a negative regulator. In case, if the gene, which codes for thorain, that is, thrL gets mutated, the coding for the functional thorain would get prevented.  

With the encoding of the non-functional thrL protein, there would be an enhancement in the expression of thrN and thrM genes and it will get transcribed at higher levels in comparison to the non-mutant or the wild-type.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

The plant absorbs the sunlight to perform photosynthesis which helps produce the sugar molecule used by the plants.

The plants absorb maximum sunlight at two wavelengths that are red and blue wavelength by chlorophyll and other pigments. The efficiency of photosynthesis is also measured maximum at these two active wavelengths called action spectrum.

In the given question, since the efficiency of photosynthesis has been discussed which could be measured with the production of oxygen and consumption of carbon dioxide. The experiment performed by the Engelmann showed that aerobic bacteria got concentrated in the blue and red wavelengths as the output of the photosynthesis were observed maximum.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
