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."

Describe how sandstone, a sedimentary rock, may become a metamorphic rock. Enter your answer in the space provided. HELP 30 POIN
pshichka [43]

Explanation:

When sandstone is overlaid by layers and layers of sediment, it becomes subject to enormous pressure and temperature beneath the layers and its grain structure begins to change. The force of compactness causes grain structure and size to reform. This is called metamophism., The sandstone becomes a new rock called quartzite.  The two rocks will have different properties. Quartzite will have larger crystals and will be hard and smooth while sandstone will be coarse and soft.

Some viruses attack cells by inserting their own dna into the host cells dna why might it be simpler for these viruses to attack
Pie

Answer:

The DNA in eukrayotic cells is much more protected than the DNA in prokaryotic cells

Explanation:

DNA in eukaryotic cells lies within the nucleus. This DNA has a membrane protecting it from the outside. This means that the virus will have a harder time at getting to the DNA to insert its own DNA into it.

Prokaryotic cells have their DNA loose within the cytoplasm. This DNA is not protected. The virus will have to pass only 1 membrane in order to get to this DNA.

The aerobic system of energy production uses glycogen, but primarily ______ as its energy source?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]


The aerobic system of energy production uses glycogen, but primarily glucose  as its energy source.

Glucose is taken in by the cell and broken into pyruvate in the process of glycolysis, the first step in aerobic cell respiration. It takes place in the cell cytoplasm.

Pyruvate is then used in the Krebs cycle in the cell mitochondria in the second step of respiration which produces high energy electron carriers. These high energy electron carries such as NADP are then employed in the electron transport chain, the last step of the respiration process, where a large number of ATP molecules is produced.

By the time the process of aerobic respiration ends, 36 to 38 molecules of ATP are produced from one single molecule of glucose.
