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.

Answer:

Plants perform photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Explanation:

  • Cellular respiration is the conversion of glucose into ATP and energy yielding molecules such as NADH and FADH2 along with water and oxygen and carbon dioxide as by-products.
  • Cellular respiration is a process that occurs both in autotrophs and heterotrophs.
  • Only the final stage of cellular respiration i.e. oxidative phosphorylation or electron transport chain requires oxygen as the final electron acceptor.
  • Heterotrophic cells don't take in carbondioxide, they utilize glucose obtained through food.

Character displacement differs from resource partitioning because character displacement  is directly linked to the evolution of genotypes that have allowed alternate resource use

<h3>What is genotypes ?</h3>

An organism's genotype is made up of all of its genetic components. The alleles or variations that an individual carries in a specific gene or genetic region are also referred to as the genotype. The number of copies of each chromosome found in that species, also known as ploidy, determines how many alleles a person can have for a certain gene.

In diploid organisms like humans, there are two complete sets of chromosomes, which means that each person has two alleles for each gene. Homozygous refers to a genotype when both alleles are the same. Heterozygous refers to a genotype when there are two distinct alleles.

Phenotype, the observable qualities and attributes of an individual or creature, is influenced by genotype.

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is included in the Explanation section

Explanation:

An organism with considerable more chromosomes than humans: the plant <em>Ophioglossum reticulatum</em> with 1260 chromosomes.

An organism with considerable fewer chromosomes than humans: the ant <em>Myrmecia pilosula</em> with 1 chromosome.

It might be thought that the chromosome number of a species is directly related to its complexity, meaning that an organism with a large number of chromosomes is more complex than an organism with a small number. However, this is not true. Chromosomes are structures of coiled DNA, and its number indicate how the cells wrapp their genomic material when they reproduce. The number of chromosomes is not related to the organism complexity, but rather the number of genes and their function.
