Options for part A are as follows:
A) A mutation in the operator sequence
B) A mutation in the lac-Z gene
C) A mutation in the lac-Y gene
D) A super repressor mutation
Answer:
The correct answer:
Part a - A mutation in the operator sequence
Part b - It ensures that a cell dedicates resources to the production of enzymes involved in lactose metabolism only when lactose is available in the environment
Part C. true.
Explanation:
part a:
If there is a mutation in the operator sequence leads to prevent binding of the repressor which leads to allowing constitutive expression of the genes various conditions.
part b:
The biological role of the lac operon makes sure that the cell dedicates resources to the production of enzymes involved in lactose metabolism only when lactose is available in the environment
Part c:
RNA polymerase cannot transcribe the structural genes due to the repressor binds to the lac operator, therefore, the proper function of the lac operon is possible when the placement of the operator sequence between the promotor and the structural genes.
Answer:
Selection that acts, over evolutionary time, to enhance traits that increase an individual's ability to mate frequently or with quality partners is known as <u>sexual selection.</u>
Explanation:
Sexual selection : The process through which males and females attempt to maximise their chances of reproductive success is called sexual selection. It is a form of natural selection. Charles Darwin suggested sexual selection. Animals compete with others of the same species for the chance to mate.
<u>For example:</u> Male widow-bird grows exceptional long tail feathers, females lack tail feathers.
Answer;
-Enzymes
Enzymes are class of proteins, they make metabolic reactions proceed much faster than they would have on their own.
Explanation;
-Proteins are biological macromolecules that are diverse in shape size and function. Enzymes are biological molecules (proteins) that act as catalysts and help complex reactions occur everywhere in life. They are biological catalysts.
All enzymes are proteins by definition. But not all biomolecular catalysts are proteins. Most enzymes are proteins, although a few are catalytic RNA molecules.
Loamy soil is actually ideal for gardening because it contains forty percent sand., forty percent slit and roughly twenty percent clay by weight. You can choose the answer which best fits this statement or the third choice you have given above.
Answer:
Lipids are hydrocarbon molecules that make up the structure of living beings. Few examples are <u>fats, oils and waxes</u>. Steroids are also a class of lipids but they are not structurally related to other lipids but do share some common properties with them. They are <em>insoluble in water and are hydrophobic</em>( water-repelling).
Explanation:
Lipids are insoluble in water as they are <em>non-polar</em> but soluble in non polar solvents (<em>chloroform</em>). Fat soluble vitamins like <u>A,D,E,K and steroids</u> have a different structure composed of fused four rings.
The most common example of steroid is cholesterol. Cholesterol acts as a precursor for many hormones and other signalling molecules.
