Question
Which of these is NOT an advantage of gene regulation?
allows the organism to respond to the environment
allows for cellular diferentiation
allows different genes to be turned on during development
allows sex differentiation to occur early in development
Gene regulation in prokaryotes most commonly occurs
during translation
during transcription
by inactivating chromosomes
after translation
A.allows the organism to respond to the environment
B.allows for cellular diferentiation
C.allows different genes to be turned on during development
D.allows sex differentiation to occur early in development
Explanation / Answer
Q1. Gene regulation is the control of the expression of the genes. This control is required by the cell machinery to stop the unwanted genes or the regular genes to produce gene products unnecessarily which is a huge waste of cellular resources. Gene regulation can help the organism in responding to the environmental change, it allows for differentiation of a cell to perform a task, it switches of many genes during the development but determination of sex is definitely not an advantage
Answer : d
Q2. Answer: Transcription
Transcription is the process of conversion of DNA into RNA with the help of RNA polymerase.Most of the genes in prokaryotes are controlled at this stage where the repressors bind to the polymerase and stop the transcription.
