Bacteria usually contains a genetic unit called operon which consists of a promoter, operator and all the functional genes that will be coded by a single mRNA. A novel operon has been discovered in a newly found bacteria, called operon X which is transcribed when the bacterium has a deficiency for a novel protein called protein Y. The operon works by directing for the production of protein W which is needed to produce protein Y. Operon X is controlled by specific proteins which can regulate the amount of transcription. A repressor will attach to operon X and reduce transcription if it is not necessary at a given time. The repressor will be removed in the presence of protein W by becoming attached to a protein W molecule. Meanwhile an activator protein will attach upstream to the promoter and signal RNA polymerase to begin transcription of operon X if transcription is needed in order to produce protein Y. Will the level of operon X transcription be high or low when the bacterium has both high protein Y and protein W levels available? Explain

What happens as electrons move along the chain of molecules known as the electron transport chain? they gain energy, which causes atp molecules to lose phosphate groups. they gain energy, which causes h *ions to join with oxygen to produce water. they lose energy, which is then used by the cell to make atp. they lose energy, which is then used to break down atp.
