Answer:

A) Humans without this gene exhibit problem with oxygen binding in their red blood cells.

Explanation:

  • Oxygen binds to red blood cells because of their hemoglobin component. It is a protein found in red blood cells.
  • Each hemoglobin molecule is able to bind to four oxygen molecules.
  • If the gene controlling hemoglobin production is absent in humans, the red blood cells will not be able to bind to oxygen.
  • Hence, if the gene given in diagram is removed and it results in difficulty in binding of oxygen to red blood cells, that gene might be involved in hemoglobin production.

Describe the process of transcription involve RNA polymerase.
valina [46]
Transcription is the process in which a gene's DNA sequence is copied (transcribed) to make an RNA molecule. RNA polymerase is the main transcription enzyme. Transcription begins when RNA polymerase binds to a promoter sequence near the beginning of a gene (directly or through helper proteins).
