D. living things as a reservoir
Answer:
1) A double Helix with complementary bases in the middle. The backbone is made of sugar and phosphates. The middle is bases
2) To hold the genetic info for the cell
3) To bring the genetic info from the nucleus to the ribosomes as DNA can't leave the nucleus
4) To bring amino acids to the ribosomes to help build a protein
5) A chain of amino acids held together by peptide bonds
6) Ribosomes
7) Because those are the bases that are complementary in DNA so they must be equal
8) It could lead to a mutation as it would cause the mRNA to code for a different amino acid and thus a different protein will be made
9) DNA is the blueprint for mRNA which will travel to the ribosomes and code for specific amino acids which will eventually build a protein
The lac operon, which stands for Lactose operon is known as an inducible system. It is the an operon required for the transport and metabolism of lactose some enteric bacteria (Echerichia coli for example). The Lac operon is only activated in the presence of a key molecule. The key molecule is lactose.
From the given options the following best describes the Lac operon:
D. The repressor is freed from the operator when lactose is present.
Phylum is a principal taxonomic category that is ranked below the kingdom and above the class. If two organisms are in the same phylum, this means that they are also in the same kingdom. Each phylum is composed of one or more classes.
