Answer the following question given this paragraph: The trp Operon: A Repressor Operon Bacteria such as E. coli need amino acids to survive. Tryptophan is one such amino acid that E. coli can ingest from the environment. coli can also synthesize tryptophan using enzymes that are encoded by five genes. These five genes are next to each other in what is called the tryptophan (trp) operon (Figure 16.3). If tryptophan is present in the environment, then E. coli does not need to synthesize it and the switch controlling the activation of the genes in the trp operon is switched off. However, when tryptophan availability is low, the switch controlling the operon is turned on, transcription is initiated, the genes are expressed, and tryptophan is synthesized. Q: E. coli need what kind of acids to survive? Choices: - hydrochloric - bacterial - boric - amino A:
amino
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Because the heat is absorbed by the system, the 177.8 kJ is written as a reactant. The heat of reaction is positive for an endothermic reaction. Q: Is the heat of reaction positive or negative for an endothermic reaction? Choices: - Neither - Both - Negative - positive A:
positive
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Liquids If the particles of a substance have enough energy to partially overcome intermolecular interactions, then the particles can move about each other while remaining in contact. This describes the liquid state. In a liquid, the particles are still in close contact, so liquids have a definite volume. However, because the particles can move about each other rather freely, a liquid has no definite shape and takes a shape dictated by its container. Q: In a liquid, the particles are still in close contact, so liquids have a definite what? Choices: - growth - shape - weight - volume A:
A: volume
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Some mutations have a positive effect on the organism in which they occur. They are called beneficial mutations . They lead to new versions of proteins that help organisms adapt to changes in their environment. Beneficial mutations are essential for evolution to occur. They increase an organism's changes of surviving or reproducing, so they are likely to become more common over time. There are several well-known examples of beneficial mutations. Here are just two:. Q: Mutations which benefit the organism in which they occur are known as? Choices: - extraordinary mutations - helpful mutations - healthy mutations - beneficial mutations A:
Answer: beneficial mutations

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain. It sits on top of the brain stem. The cerebrum controls functions that we are aware of, such as problem-solving and speech. It also controls voluntary movements, like waving to a friend. Whether you are doing your homework or jumping hurdles, you are using your cerebrum. Q: What is the largest part of the brain? Choices: - temporal lobe - hypothalamus - pituitary gland - cerebrum A:
**Answer**
cerebrum
