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 a cell in the domain eukaryotes
Elden [556K]

A eukaryote  is any organism whose cells contain a nucleus and other organelles enclosed within membranes. Eukaryotes belong to the taxon Eukarya or Eukaryota. The defining feature that sets eukaryotic cells apart from prokaryotic cells (Bacteria and Archaea) is that they have membrane-bound organelles, especially the nucleus, which contains the genetic material and is enclosed by the nuclear envelope.

Why is it important to balance the rate of extraction of water from an aquifer with its rate of recharge?
gladu [14]

The quantity of water in the water table can change rapidly depending on the rate of extraction. As the level of water decreases in the aquifer, there is less available water to be pumped. If the rate of potential groundwater recharge is less than the rate of extraction, the water table will be too low for access.

Beavers are able to adapt to the changing conditions of all four seasons. Which of the following would threaten the survival of
ELEN [110]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The question says that beavers are able to adapt to changin questions in each season, so we know that snow in winter, or heat in summer won't bother them. These types of variations in weather are what the beaver is used to. This would eliminate A (July is in summer, so the beavers would expect heat), B (December is in winter, so the beavers would expect freezing conditions), and D (January is in winter, so the beavers expect the snow). That leaves us with C. Fires are not a typical condition for a season- fires aren't expected every fall. Therefore, when there is a fire, beavers will not know what to do. Hope this helps, and feel free to ask me for more clarification!

!HURRY! 20 POINTS
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Many Middle Eastern countries have been transitioning from largely rural living to urban living. City populations are growing quickly as people move to find jobs. However, environmental problems have come with this rapid urbanization. Many urban areas are experiencing air and water pollution. Air pollution is occurring due to the region's reliance on toxic energy sources, oil and gas. Oil and gas release emissions into the air when consumed by factories or cars. Cities are also experiencing water pollution issues due to a lack of waste treatment options. Without places to dispose of waste, people are dumping sewage and industrial waste into water sources. Finally, urban coastal areas are having problems with coastal degradation. Soil erodes and wildlife habitats are destroyed as land is changed for urban development.
