Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Lac Operon is defined as an operon that is used by E.coli for transporting and metabolizing lactose.

Allolactose is a disaccharide like lactose, that binds to lac repressor and restrict its binding with DNA. It triggers expression of a operon or gene.

So, adding allolactose to the bacterial growth media, block the activity of lac repressor and trigger the activity of bacteria to metabolize the sugar lactose.

Hence, the correct answer is "A."

How do biotic and abiotic factors. Contribute to the health of an ecosystem ??? Please explain
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: They do affect the health of an ecosystem.

Explanation: In an ecosystem there are many things that are biotic and abiotic. For an example: water is abiotic and plants/animals are all biotic, the water is not living but it keeps the ecosystem alive by quenching the thirst of the plants growing from the ground and the animals roaming around on the land. Dead animals and plants are not abiotic and they are now providing food for fungi and bacteria. Without the abiotic factors, it would be difficult for the biotic to survive.

crimeas [40]

Energy stored in food can be used by cells to add a phosphate group to ADP to make ATP. This cycling of ATP to ADP occurs in a metabolic process called cellular respiration. phosphate group breaks, and energy is released. ATP becomes ADP, and the cycle of storing and releasing energy continues until the cell dies.
