Prokaryotic Operons Typically Include A(n) ________ and A(n) ________ with Multiple

Question

Prokaryotic operons typically include a(n) ________ and a(n) ________ with multiple genes.
A) operator; terminator
B) operator; promoter
C) promoter; repressor
D) inducer; repressor
E) CAP-binding site; inducer

Accepted Answer

Prokaryotic operons typically include an operator, which is the regulatory region that controls the access of RNA polymerase to the genes, and a promoter, which is the region where RNA polymerase binds to initiate transcription. The operon may also include a repressor, which can bind to the operator to prevent transcription, and an inducer, which can bind to the repressor to relieve repression. CAP-binding sites are not typically part of prokaryotic operons, although they can be involved in regulating gene expression in other ways.
