Answer:

D.) repressor DNA-binding site mutation

Explanation:

lacl prevents the repressor polypeptide is a mutant that prevent operon from binding lactose, and thus will bind to the operator and be non-inducible.. This mutant will represses the lac operon whether lactose is present or not and the lac operon will not be expressed. It is also called“super-supperesor".

The lacI locus – One type of mutant allele of lacI (callled I-) prevents the production of a repressor polypeptide or produces a polypeptide that will not allow to bind to the operator sequence.

This is also a constitutive expresser of the lac operon because absence of repressor binding permits transcription.

Describe the processes of transcription and translation in your own words, based on what you have observed in the Gizmo.
Flura [38]

Answer:

Please find the explanation of transcription and translation below using the key words.

Explanation:

Transcription is the process whereby a gene in a DNA template is used to synthesize a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule in the nucleus of the cell. This process of transcription occurs with the aid of an enzyme called RNA POLYMERASE, which adds the nucleotides complementary to the one it reads in the gene to the growing mRNA strand.

Translation, on the other hand, is the second process of gene expression involving the synthesis of proteins from the mRNA sequence. This process occurs in the RIBOSOME where a group of three nucleotides in the mRNA called CODON is read by another group of complementary nucleotide in the transfer RNA (tRNA) called ANTICODON. The tRNA then carries amino acids corresponding to what is read in the codon to the growing polypeptide chain.
