A vector contains the nitR gene under the control of the nitA promoter in a separate operon, the expression of vector is used, upon the addition of the inducer. The inducer–NitR protein complex activates the transcription of both the target gene(s) and nitR and increased level of NitR results in a very high level of production of the target protein(s). Which type of inducer using by nitR?

The most plausible hypothesis to explain why species richness is higher in tropical than in temperate regions is that

 A) tropical communities are older.

 B) tropical regions generally have more available water and higher levels of solar radiation.

 C) higher temperatures cause more rapid speciation.
