In What Ways Do Populations of Organisms (Communities) Interact?

Keeping in mind the life cycle of bacteriophages, consider the following problem: during the reproductive cycle of a temperate bacteriophage, the viral dna inserts into the bacterial chromosome where the resultant prophage behaves much like a trojan horse. it can remain quiescent, or it can become lytic and initiate a burst of progeny viruses. several operons maintain the prophage state by interacting with a repressor that keeps the lytic cycle in check. insults (ultraviolet light, for example) to the bacterial cell lead to a partial breakdown of the repressor, which in turn causes the production of enzymes involved in the lytic cycle. as stated in this simple form, would you consider this system of regulation to be operating under positive or negative control?

Which of these is not a nucleotide base found in dna?

In a lab, scientists grew several generations of offspring of a plant using the method shown. what conclusion can you make about the offspring? a. they formed from meiosis and mitosis. b. they have half the number of chromosomes as their parent. c. they have low genetic variability among them. d. they will be able to reproduce only after they grow flowers.
