Usually, a mutation in the promoter region of an operon causes reduced levels of synthesis of the proteins encoded by that opero

n. Occasionally, a mutation in the promoter region actually causes increased levels of synthesis. Can you suggest (briefly) a plausible explanation?

<h2>Operon </h2>

Explanation:

The possible explanation of the increased synthesis of the protein by an occasional mutation in the promoter is that the mutation could occur in the enhancer sequence

This specific region, enhancer are 200 base pair long DNA elements that is present either upstream or downstream to the transcriptional start site

Activity of enhancer is orientation independent and provide binding site for activators(activators are large proteinaceous complex that initiate transcription)

Eukaryotic cells tend to be 10-1,000 times larger than prokaryotic cells, which it means that it takes much longer for molecules
ELEN [110]

Answer:

The reactants and enzymes required for a particular biological process are concentrated in a particular organelle.

Slower

Explanation:

Enzymes are usually localized in organelles to make it easier for cellular processes to occur. Enzymes are NOT randomly distributed in the cell. Each organelle is capable of a specific function and uses specific enzymes to do these processes. Enzymes are very specific and only work for certain organelles, so they are appropriately distributed throughout cells to ensure biological processes can proceed appropriately. This is also why processes would run slower if they were just in the cytoplasm, because organelles have reactant-specific enzymes to do certain biological processes, which cannot be effectively done in the cytoplasm in the cell.

Describes hydrogen bonding in DNA?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer: Hydrogen bonds are created between the base pairs in DNA. Adenine pairs with thymine and cytosine pairs with guanine. Adenine and thymine create 2 hydrogen bonds while cytosine and guanine create 3. These bonds are fairly weak so that they can be broken when DNA is replicated (by an enzyme called helicase which unwinds DNA). However despite them being weak they do stabilize DNA's double helix structure as well.
