Biology

Tju [1.3M]3 years ago
7 0
There are many theories about why living thins sleep, however, scientists are still unsure about what the answer to this question may be. Some say it is because of its restorative powers - after a good night's sleep, you feel rested, and all your brain and bodily functions work better than when you are exhausted. During sleep, some rejuvenating and growth hormones are created, which again adds to our advantage. You also relieve stress that has accumulated during the day. These are some of the reasons why we have to sleep.

beks73 [17]

Answer:

The inducer will combines with the repressor and inactivates the pathway.

Explanation:

Inducer is a term in Molecular Biology, which represent a molecule or substance that has the capability to activate the transcription of a gene, where by it joins with and then inactivates a genetic repressor.

In other words, the inducer binds with the repressor in order to prevent the RNA polymerase to combine to the DNA, and chemically produce mRNA, this is done by repressor proteins combining with the DNA strand.

Inducer specifically makes repressor to change shapes, which will make it not combine with the DNA, and therefore, allow formation of transcription, such that expression of gene will eventually occur.
