Answer:
Groundwater
Explanation:
Groundwater, which is in aquifers below the surface of the Earth, is one of the Nation's most important natural resources. Groundwater is the source of about 33% of the water that county and city water departments supply to households and businesses (public supply).
The principal function of thyroxine is to stimulate the consumption of oxygen and thus the metabolism of all cells and tissues.
Thyroxine is termed T4. It travels through the blood to the target cells and becomes converted to triiodothyronine or T3.
T3 is the active form of thyroxine. T3 enters the target cell's nucleus binding to genes responsible or involved in the metabolism of sugar in the body. T3 stimulates these genes and in so doing metabolism (conversion of oxygen and calories to energy) is carried out by the cell, which also results in generation of body heat.
C is homozygous because the genotypes are equal
Answer:
E. On in the presence of lactose and absence of glucose
Explanation:
Expression of lac operon synthesizes the enzymes required for catabolism of lactose sugar. When both glucose and lactose are available, glucose is preferred as a nutrient and the lac operon is not expressed.
Lac operon is expressed only when glucose is absent in the medium and lactose is present. If any of the two conditions deviate, the operon is not expressed.
In the absence of glucose and the presence of lactose, the repressor is rendered inactive to bind to the operator. RNA polymerase enzyme is free to bind to the promoter and continue the process of transcription.
The reduced levels of glucose increase the cAMP levels which in turn bind to the Catabolite activator protein (CAP). CAP is a positive regulator that binds to the promoter to facilitate the transcription of the operon by RNA polymerase.
