Answer:
Increase in transcription
Explanation:
Transcription is the process of forming RNA from DNA. It can be controlled by many factors like a repressor. Repressor can bind to the operator region of the promoter and hinder the movement of RNA Polymerase enzyme, halting the process.
Here, it is given that the repressor needs to first bind to an effector molecule X. Once it binds to X, it is activated and then it can bind to operator of gene A to inhibit its transcription. If the X binding domain on repressor is mutated it wont be able to bind to X. Thus it wont get activated and wont be able to attach to operator region to inhibit transcription. Hence, transcription process will keep going on uncontrolled.
Cells get energy by breaking down food molecules. The process of breaking down food to restore energy to the cells is called Cellular Respiration.
