<u>It is present at end of the nail.The lunula is not actually white in color but only appears white when it is seen through nail.  </u>

<u>Outlining nail matrix, lunula is extremely delicate part of structure of the nail. If one damages lunula, nail will be deformed permanently.</u>

I just got into the air and I am very excited that I had my complete incoming box of electrons. I am a carbon atom and I have six electrons. Right now I am in a carbon dioxide molecule and I am just wondering in air. While i was enjoying my journey I waved to my friends like oxygen gas which is a molecule of two oxygen atoms.Oxygen atom is my best friend. I’ve heard stories of becoming solids and many different things when i was too young, but now I just like the air and I am loving it.</span>

wariber [46]

A bacterium has a faulty lac operon in which there is a structural defect in the operator. In this bacterium there is a structural problem with a segment of DNA that binds a repressor.

  • A protein known as a repressor binds to an operator site. The operator in this instance (and numerous others) is a section of DNA that lies just downstream of the RNA polymerase binding site or overlaps with it (promoter). In other words, it lies between the operon's promoter and its genes.
  • The repressor protein inhibits the synthesis of messenger RNA by attaching to the promoter region of the gene(s) (mRNA). The control of gene expression in cells requires repressor proteins.
  • Thus, by physically impeding the RNA polymerase's ability to operate, these repressor proteins stop the gene from being transcribed.
