Answer:
An amino acid activates the repressor so that the repressor binds to the operator and prevents transcription.
Explanation:
In an operon, promoter is followed by operator which is finally followed by the structural genes to be transcribed. RNA Polymerase binds to the promoter and initiates transcription. A repressor can negatively control the transcription process by binding to the operator so that the RNA Polymerase is not able to move forward and transcription is halted.
For example: in trp operon, tryptophan amino acid binds to the repressor molecule which leads to change in repressor's shape. The repressor is now able to bind to the operator and prevent transcription.
Answer:
Tight junctions - prevent liquid from seeping between cells
Desmosomes - act as rivets to hold adjacent cells together when epithelial tissue moves
Gap junctions - allow movement of cytosol, ions, and small molecules between animal cells
Plasmodesmata - openings through the cell walls of plant cells that allow adjacent cells to share materials
Explanation:
1) Tight junctions are one of the cell junctions found in animal cells. Tight junctions function to prevent the flow of liquid materials between cells.
2) Desmosomes are another type of cell junctions whose function is to form a connection between two adjacent cells. The structure formed by this connection confers strength upon the tissues involved.
3) Gap junctions are the most commonly found cell junctions found in animal cells that connects adjacent cells allowing the passage of cytosol, ions and other small molecules in them from one adjacent cell to another.
4) Plasmodesmata is a cell junction found in plant cells. They are small openings lying across the cell wall of plant cells whose function is to connect the cells and facilitate the movement of materials from one cell to another.
Answer:
<em>ATP</em> or <em>Adenosine triphosphate</em> is the chief compounds which are used by the living things to store energy.
Explanation:
<em>ATP</em> is the compound that captures the chemical energy released through the degradation of food. It <em>stores</em> the captured energy and <em>releases</em> it at the time of need experienced by the organism.
It is made up of adenine, ribose sugar, and a phosphate group. It is produced in a cell organelle called <em>mitochondria</em> through a process called <em>respiration</em>.
The correct answer is: ATC GAA CCG TA
