What are the common promoter elements found in eukaryotic genes, and how are they different from enhancer elements?

7 0

Answer:

In eukaryotic cells you find core and proximal promoters.

Promotors are specific DNA sequences where transcription factors (proteins) and RNA polymerase binds to initiate transcription. Promotors are located upstream the coding sequence

Core promoters are where RNA polymersae binds and proximal promoters are where transcription factors bind.

Enhancer elements are DNA sequences where transcription factors (proteins) bind to increase the rate of expresion of an specific gene. Enhancers can be located either upstream,  downstream or thousands of nucleotids away  from the of the coding region.

Explanation:

Promoters and enhancer are key elements for controling gene regulation. Transcription begins when chromatin rearranges from a condensed state to a accesible state, this allow to transcrition factors and RNA polymerase to  bind specif DNA sequences (promotors).  Proteins bind to enhancers , this complex develops a DNA loop, so that the protein that is bound to the enhancer interacts with the RNA polymersase. When this interaction is made, the activity of the RNA polymerase is increased.

An increased rate of breathing as a result of an increased buildup of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream would be best described
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer;

Responsiveness

Excretion

Explanation;

Excess carbon dioxide must be removed from the body to stop it reaching toxic levels. As the blood flows through the lungs, excess carbon dioxide passes out of the blood and into the alveoli by diffusion. It is then removed from the lungs when we exhale (breathe out).

-Carbon dioxide helps remove carbon dioxide (a waste gas that can be toxic) from your body. The lungs' intake of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide is called gas exchange. Gas exchange is part of breathing.

How does the behavior of an electron change when it forms a covalent bond?​
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:  Covalent bonds are a convenient way of describing the way that a few negatively charged electrons can fix their average location so as to hold two positively charged nuclei together. Chemists know about covalent bonds, electrons do not. All electrons are constantly in very fast motion, they are all indistinguishable from one another, and we have to think in terms not of the position of each electron specifically, but of the average distribution of electrons in a molecule. "Bonds" and "localized electrons" are a convenient fictional calculus and accounting system that allows chemists to work out the properties of molecules and the mechanisms of chemical reactions.

Think of a baseball team made up of nine identical siblings, who constantly and rapidly change fielding positions. You can still describe the team as having a short stop or a second base man, even though you cannot identify an individual person with any role.

Black_prince [1.1K]
Water is heated up when their molecules absorb energy and attain a higher speed. Most of the energy absorbed by water is initially used in disrupting the hydrogen bonds that water molecules make with themselves, thus limiting the amount of energy left to transfer into the kinetic motion of the water molecules themselves. This in turn causes water to heat up much slower.
