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.

Prokaryotes divide by binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction in which
evablogger [386]

Prokaryotes divide by binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction in which a cell divides into two cells with identical genetic information.

Explanation:

Binary fission and mitosis can be viewed as the same principle of  asexual reproduction to give out two identical cells. However, the major difference between the two is that binary fission is to prokaryotes and mitosis is to eukaryotes. Remember that prokaryotes do not have a true nucleus (they have a nucleoid) hence binary fission does not involve the dividing of the nucleus. Mitosis does.

Sexual reproduction is responsible for creating variation in offspring especially due to the process of meiosis in gamete development and subsequent fertilization of two gametes from different parents.

How was the knowledge of ecological succession applied to the reclamation of land damaged due to mining?
Mandarinka [93]

After mining, to reclaim the land, the depression is filled with rocks then the top is filled with loosely graded soil. Introduction of early succession plants is important before big trees can grow. The early succession plants help in the breaking down of the rocks into soil hence making the topsoil deeper to support trees.

"grandmother cells" are mostly closely associated with ____ coding.
Ostrovityanka [42]
"Grandmother cells" are mostly closely associated with specificity coding. Specifity coding is the representation of particular objects in a particular environment by the firing of neuron that are tuned to respond specifically to that object. Single cells fires only in response to the presence of a particular face say a grand mother but no response to any other face.
