Answer:
A = Activator
B = Effector
Explanation:
An activator is a protein which typically binds to a short (50–1500 bp) region of DNA which might be located either upstream (mainly) or downstream of a gene so as to cause increased transcription. This particular region of DNA is known as enhancer and activator is also known as transcription factor. Activator is a trans-acting factor which binds to the cis-acting factor which is enhancer so as to enhance transcriptional expression.
But another protein named as effector may restrict activator from binding to the enhancer leading to a decrease in transcriptional expression by binding to the activator allosterically. Allosteric binding of effector to the activator causes conformational change in activator so it can no longer bind the enhancer.
Answer: It is verified by testing it. If the data supports the hypothesis, then we consider the hypothesis to be verified and true. If however, the data does not support the hypothesis or refutes it, then the hypothesis is in trouble, and we have to come up with a different hypothesis to explain the observations.
Explanation:
Answer:
Option C) Feedback inhibition
Feedback inhibition is a regulatory mechanism in which the end product of a metabolic pathway inhibits an enzyme that catalyzes an early step in the pathway.
Explanation:
Feedback inhibition is a regulatory mechanism in which a biochemical pathway is regulated by the amount of the product that the pathway produces. Thus, it is also known as end-point inhibition.
For example:
The accumulation of ATP inhibits the action of phosphofructokinase, the enzyme that catalyzes the rate-limiting step of glycolysis
Unlike endocrine glands, exocrine gland RELEASE SECRETIONS OUTSIDE OF THE BODY.
There are two types of glands in the body, the endocrine and the exocrine glands. The endocrine glands are ductless glands and their secretions are normally released directly into the blood stream. The exocrine glands on the other hand have ducts, through which their secretions are release outside the body. An example of this is the sweat gland.
