Keeping in mind the life cycle of bacteriophages, consider the following problem: during the reproductive cycle of a temperate bacteriophage, the viral dna inserts into the bacterial chromosome where the resultant prophage behaves much like a trojan horse. it can remain quiescent, or it can become lytic and initiate a burst of progeny viruses. several operons maintain the prophage state by interacting with a repressor that keeps the lytic cycle in check. insults (ultraviolet light, for example) to the bacterial cell lead to a partial breakdown of the repressor, which in turn causes the production of enzymes involved in the lytic cycle. as stated in this simple form, would you consider this system of regulation to be operating under positive or negative control?

Which of the following describes how binary fission and mitosis are similar? a)they are both used for growth or repair b)they both break down membrane-bound nuclei c)both invoke the replication of a single stand of dna d)both replicate genetic material

Fossils of ancestors of the modern horses show a small 4-toed almost dog-like browsing animal named eohippus over time the horses got larger lost toes and changed to a grazing diet what is the best explanation of why this change occurred
