Answer

Operons are cluster of coordinated genes, including structural genes, an operator gene, and a regulatory gene.

Explanation:

In the The repressible operons, The transcription is usually on and repressor is in inactive form, So the specific genes are transcribed. While a regulatory molecule act as corepressor and binds to repressor protein to activate it. The repressor protein cause the inactivation of repressible operon (as the name indicate). E.g., Tryptophan Repress the trp operon.

A high level of product act as regulatory molecule (Corepressor) and turn off the operon, So anabolic pathways or synthesis of essential components are controlled by repressible operon.

In the Inducible operons, the transcription is usually off and repressor is in active form. So there is no transcription of genes. Specific Metabolite cause the activation of operon e.g lactose cause the induction of lac operon.

As a metabolite induces the operon, So they control the Metabolic pathways or breakdown of a neutrient.

<h2>RNA Polymerase</h2>

Explanation:

RNA polymerase, a chemical in the cell, is answerable for making mRNA from the right quality. RNA polymerase is like DNA polymerase, yet it makes a RNA strand as opposed to a DNA strand. The promoter region of DNA Helix is attached by RNA polymerase.

It pulls in nucleotides that supplement those on the DNA strand containing the gene of interest. RNA polymerase duplicates one strand of DNA to make a stretching bit of singlestranded mRNA. RNA polymerase makes the mRNA strand in what is known as the 5' to 3' course.

What are some activities that cells engage in that require energy? And from where do cells obtain the energy they need to make A

malfutka [58]

Some activities that cell requires energy may include cell division, active transport, protein synthesis etc.
In human, Cells get their energy by the food we eat. The nutrients in the food breaks down into soluble and simple molecules in stomach and small intestine and it is absorbed through the small intestine and assimilated into the cells, becoming part of it, providing the uses for each type of nutrient. And of course, many of them is the energy source.
