#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. The attenuator structure will not form, and the structural genes will be transcribed.

  2. The attenuator structure will always form, and transcription will terminate.

  3. The frequency of attenuation will still be controlled by the concentration of trp-tRNAtrp.

  4. Translation of the structural genes will not occur.
