The state of California has over 1,000 dams, many built from the 1930s to the 1970s to reduce flooding and to create hydroelectric power. A dramatic decrease in salmon and trout populations were noted in the dammed rivers. The state has recently begun to research dam removal to restore rivers to their original flow. Which of the following is a possible benefit of removing some dams?
A. Restoration of migrating fish habitats and related food web species.
B. Increased hydroelectric power output from remaining California dams.
C. Better long-term drought prevention from reservoirs.

Neelaredoxin is a 15-kda protein that is a gene product common in anaerobic prokaryotes. it has superoxide-scavenging activity, and it is constitutively expressed. in addition, its expression is not further induced during its exposure to o2 or h2o2 (silva, g., et al. 2001. j. bacteriol. 183: 4413–4420). which of the following statements best describes neelaredoxin synthesis? a-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; levels are constant even when exposed to o2 or h2o2.b-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; exposure to o2 or h2o2 increases expression.c-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; exposure to o2 or h2o2 decreases or prevents expression.d-neelaredoxin is only produced when there is exposure to o2 or h2o2.
