<span>Answer:
100 amino acids.
Each amino acid corresponds to a codon of 3 nucleotides. Therefore, a coding region of 300 nucleotides contains 100 codons and will produce a polypeptide of 100 amino acids in length.</span>
Answer:
Animals most likely pollinate by accident.
Explanation:
Deer for example, they may graze in the grass. The pollen/seeds could catch onto their fur--and later fall off into a different area when they walk away. They could also eat a plant, and the seeds end up in their feces. Bees for another example don't necessarily <em>mean</em> to pollinate, they just happen to pick up pollen/seeds when they land on a flower for honey.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
- The lac operon can be activated by the binding of allolactose to the repressor protein, releasing it from DNA and thereby allowing for transcription to occur.
- In response to low glucose levels, cAMP is upregulated; the binding of cAMP to the cAMP receptor protein triggers the activation of the operon.
Explanation:
Lactose operon or lac operon (includes lacZ, lacY and lacA genes) is found in some bacteria and the products of its genes are involved in lactose metabolism. So, this operon is active (genes are transcribed) when lactose is present and glucose is absent (or at low level). The operon is regulated by the lac repressor which acts as a lactose sensor and catabolite activator protein (CAP) which acts as a glucose sensor.
When there is lactose (in the form of allolactose) lac repressor detects it and stops being repressor. This enables transcription.
CAP detects glucose (via cAMP) and activates transcription when glucose levels are low.
