Only the proteins that the bacteria Escherichia coli (E. coli) needs are synthesized at any given time. For example, when lactos

e is available in the environment, E. coli will express the lac genes that allow it to break down lactose to obtain energy. When lactose is not present, these genes are not expressed.
This prevents the lac genes in the DNA of E. coli from being expressed most of the time.
A. the lac repressor
B. the lac operator
C. the lac promoter
D. the lac locator

The correct answer is A. Lac repressor.

Lac repressor prevents lac gene which are found in the DNA of Escherichia Coli from being expressed for many times.

Lac repressor is termed as DNA which binds proteins. It allows the expression of genes from coding which are made for proteins to be involved in metabolism of lactose which is in bacteria.

When there is no lactose which is available in the cell, then the genes are being repressed. Lactose are being converted to allolactose if they are available.

Use the following template strand of DNA and the coding table to determine the correct amino sequence and write this sequence be
REY [17]

DNA and RNA have the main difference in the presence of deoxyribose sugar in DNA and ribose sugar in RNA. One more is the presence of thymine in DNA while the presence of uracil in RNA.

<h3>What is the codon?</h3>

Codon is actually a three-letter code which is a sequence of three consecutive nucleotides in a DNA or RNA molecule which generally codes for a specific amino acid.

The DNA sequence given here is:

T A T A T C T A C G G T C C G G C A T C G A T T T C G

So the RNA sequence for this will be:

A U A U A G A U G C C A G G C C G U A G C U A A A G C.

So according to the table, the amino-acid sequence will be:

Isoleucine STOP Methionine Proline Glycine Arginine Serine STOP Serine.

Generally stop codon is responsible for the termination of protein synthesis.

Thus, this was the amino acid sequence for mRNA according to the given DNA sequence.

Which is identical in all living organisms?
ira [324]
Living things are based on a universal genetic code. All organisms store the complex information they need to live, grow, and reproduce in a genetic code written in a molecule called DNA. That information is copied and passed from parent to offspring and is ALMOST identical in every organism on Earth.

In the above diagram of a plant cell, what is the function of structure 3?
kramer

Explanation:

B.  serves as the control center of the cell and contains the cell's genetic information

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wounucleuscarbohynd around histones as chromosomes. Chromosomes within the nucleus is unwound, unzipped and read by enzymes in a complex series of steps known as transcription. The message on DNA, called genes is copied by RNA polymerase, to form mRNA complementary sequence to that of the DNA strand. These are then translated into proteins in ribosomes.

Further Explanation:

A cell's structural components (i.e. their makeup) determine their function (what they do) . For instance, photosynthesizing cells in algae and plants have structures called chloroplasts. These contain chlorophyll, a specialized compound which facilitates the conversion of light energy to energy stored in carbohydrates. In specific cell types, collected proteins may function as a unit called an organelle. Some organelles are bound by membranes like those that make up the external structure of the cell, with varying compositions of phospholipids and proteins. These are advantageous, as they:

  • may increase metabolic reaction efficiency; they allow cells to concentrates smaller fractions of enzymes and solutes
  • separate proteins and molecules that me harm the cell by parceling them into membrane-bound organelles for example, proteaseas bound within lysosomes can break down many structural proteins
