What is an operon, its function, and in what type of organism are operons found?

Biology

 Am operon is a set of genes transcribed under the control of an operator gene. More specifically, anoperon is a segment of DNA containing adjacent genes. <span>Operons are found in prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea), and (in rare cases) in eukaryotes. Hope this answers the question.</span>

lora16 [44]

Answer: I believe <u>option A.</u> is correct.

Explanation: When you look at both the cells, you see that cell A. shows the molecules diffusing in and out of the cell membrane. Where as, cell B. doesn't show as much.

Hope I could help! :)

In translation, the cell uses the genetic information contained in mRNA to make the proteins that carry out the cell's work.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer: d). UAG

Explanation: During translation, DNA sequence is first of all copied into an mRNA in a process known as transcription. This is the first step in protein synthesis. The mRNA is used as a template in protein synthesis. The genetic information encoded in an mRNA are in form of codons. A Codon is a three nucleotide sequence that codes for a specific amino acid. These codons are recognized by anticodons in a tRNA molecule. An anticodon is a three-base sequence on the tRNA through which tRNA base pair with mRNA.

From the DNA sequence above, 3'TAG will first be transcribed into an mRNA sequence AUC, then the anticodon on the tRNA will be UAG. The mRNA codon-tRNA anticodon base pairing follows the Watson and Crick base pairing in which Adenine pairs with Uracil and Cytosine pairs with Guanine.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

from the image:

1. eight

2. four

3. less than

Explanation:

from the data given...

n= 4

where n= # of genes

&, the extreme # of segments=   (\frac{1}{4} )^{n}

Genes, which make up a genotype are instructions for encoding a phenotype, expressed as proteins in translation.

...one gene may have 2 alleles

An allele is an alternate form of a particular gene. Genes can have multiple alleles, but in this case...

∴4 genes= 4 × 2=<u> </u><u>8 segments</u>

<u />

<u>Thus, each allele gives </u> \frac{8}{8} = <u>1 segment</u>

<u></u>

<u></u>
