Tryptophan is an amino acid necessary for e. coli survival and growth. e. coli contain genes coding for enzymes that synthesize tryptophan. these genes are grouped together on a segment of dna called the tryptophan (trp) operon. cells can use these enzymes to synthesize tryptophan when it is not present in the environment. however, when tryptophan is already present in the environment, cellular resources are shifted away from manufacturing the enzymes for tryptophan synthesis. tryptophan binds with and activates the trp repressor, which then binds to the trp promoter and blocks rna polymerase. blocking rna polymerase decreases the normal transcription rate of the operon. what type of regulation does the trp operon exhibit?

After frida stops exercising, she continues to breathe heavily. what is most likely occurring in her body? heavy breathing during exercise has produced an oxygen surplus in her muscles. this oxygen is being transported to her lungs. this is a result of aerobic respiration. heavy breathing during exercise has produced a carbon dioxide surplus in her muscles. lactate is being transported to her liver. this is a result of aerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in carbon dioxide debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in oxygen debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration.
