Most bacteria live in a solution that is hypotonic relative to the cytoplasm of the bacteria. This means that the bacterial cell is constantly taking in water. The cell wall of a bacterium is a peptidoglycan polymer that is tightly cross-linked. This would therefore function to:_________-.
A. regulate the flow of most molecules into and out of the bacterial cell.
B. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from swelling.
C. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from shrinking.
D. confirm a close relationship to plant cells that have a similar structure and live in hypotonic solutions.
E. make all bacteria fairly uniform in metabolic chemistry.
Answer:
B. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from swelling.
Explanation:
When organisms are present in hypotonic surroundings, their cells that are in contact with the surroundings tend to gain water. Bacteria present in hypotonic solution would gain water as their cells are hypertonic than the surroundings. The entry of water would increase the volume of cytoplasm and could lead to the bursting of the cell. However, the presence of a cell wall made up of cross-linked peptidoglycan prevents the swelling of the bacterial cell and allow them to survive in hypotonic surroundings.

Answer:
Silencer
Explanation:
Silencers are the position and orientation free sequences that are present outside the protein-coding sequence of a gene. Silencers serve as a binding site for some transcriptional regulatory proteins that tend to inhibit gene expression. Binding of these "repressor" proteins to the silencers inhibits the gene expression.
The deletion of silencers from DNA would increase the rate of the gene expression as the inhibitory transcription regulatory proteins do not have binding sites to inhibit the gene expression. Therefore, the deletion of silencer sequences of the beta-globin gene would have caused the increased rate of its expression.
