The trp operon of E. coli controls expression of five enzymes that are involved in the biosynthesis of the amino acid tryptophan

. A trp repressor protein (trpR) binds to the trp operator to prevent transcription when tryptophan is present. When would the tryptophan synthesis enzymes be made if the trpR gene was mutated?

Answer:

Tryptophan synthesis enzymes be made during low level of cellular tryptophan.

Explanation:

Tryptophan operon  contain 3 regulatory gene(trpR,trpP and trpO) and 5 structural genes(trpE,trpD,trpC,trpB and trpA) .trpR encodes the repressor protein that interacts with tryptophan present in the media and then the tryptophan repressor complex binds to the operator region to block the transcription of the structural genes of tryptophan operon.

   Here tryptophan acting as a corepresor.During mutation of trpR gene tryptophan biosynthesis enzymes will be synthesized only when the cellular tryptophan level remains very low.

A bacteria in a hypotonic solution will tend to:
Reptile [31]

Answer:

C) Stay the same

Explanation:

Bacteria have rigid cell walls around their cell membrane. When placed in a hypotonic solution, water enters into the bacterial cell by the process of endosmosis. However, the rigid cell wall resists the increase in the volume of the cytoplasm.

The entry of water into the bacterial cell results in the build-up of turgor pressure inside the cell. Build up enough pressure inside the cell prevents the entry of water into the cell. So, when placed in a hypotonic solution, bacterial cells stay the same due to the presence of rigid cell walls.

How might a mutation cause a beneficial change in a phenotype of an organism? (give an example)​
Maurinko [17]

The physical appearance of the biochemical characteristic of an organism as result of the interaction of phenotype; some mutation has the positive effect on the organism in which they occur.

<u>Explanation:</u>

They are called beneficial mutation. Phenotype of the organism lead to new development of proteins which help the organisms to adopt their own environment. Beneficial mutation are essential for evaluation to occur.

Phenotype stretch the DNA without any function; the mutations occur in a protein coating region, but it end up the process by not affecting sequence of the protein.

Example of phenotype are:

Observable characteristics including behaviour, biochemical properties; the phenotype benefits such as HIV resistance, lactose resistance.

Eva8 [605]
Carlos is conducting a controlled experiment. A controlled experiment is a scientific test where only one variable is changed and there is a group of subjects (named the control group) that is not receiving the factor that is being tested. The group of subjects receiving a treatment or the factor which is being tested is called the experimental group. The variable which is different between the control and the experimental group is the independent variable. The dependent variable depends on the independent variable and represents the response that we observe as an outcome of our experiment.
