Bacteriophage λ, has two mode of life cycle;  lytic and lysogenic.  In the lytic growth

a) a single Cro dimer is bound to OR3; this site overlaps PRM and so Cro represses that promoter

b) Repressor bound at OR1 and OR2 blocks RNA polymerase binding at PR, repressing transcription from that promoter

c) PR and PL binds RNA polymerase and directs transcription of lytic genes

d) During lytic, PRM is on while PR (and PL) are off

Find the correct combinations of lytic growth.

In angiosperm plants, flower morphology can be very intricate. If a tree, such as a New Mexico locust, has flowers that share many morphological intricacies with flowers of the sweet pea vine, then the most likely explanation for these floral similarities is the same general explanation for the similarities between the

The common ancestors of birds and mammals were very early (stem) reptiles, which almost certainly possessed 3-chambered hearts (2 atria, 1 ventricle). Birds and mammals, however, are alike in having 4-chambered hearts (2 atria, 2 ventricles). The 4-chambered hearts of birds and mammals are best described as
