Polyploidy is a major force in the evolution of both wild and cultivated plants. ... Some of the most important consequences of polyploidy for plant breeding are the increment in plant organs
Photosynthesis? Its when a plant takes in sunlight for ATP (energy).
Vacuoles are storage bubbles found in cells. They are very large in plant cells and are used to store a variety of nutrients a cell might need to survive.
Answer:
The correct answer is option d. "A region of DNA sequence upstream of a gene where transcription factors bind".
Explanation:
Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) are fragments of DNA that do not encode to a protein, but regulate the transcription of nearby genes. CREs regulation is based on binding to transcription factors. These elements are vital for the regulation of complex molecular mechanisms that involve the participation of multiple genes. Additionally, CREs could participate in pleiotropy (a single gene being responsible for the development of multiple traits), because a single transcription factor could bind to different CREs.
