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?

Chickadees were given an opportunity to store seeds in 72 possible storage sites consisting of holes drilled in small trees that had been placed in an aviary. Typically, the seeds were placed in only 4 or 5 storage sites. The chickadees were then removed from the aviary, the seeds removed from the storage sites, and each hole covered. A day later, the chickadees were returned to the aviary and they spent nearly 5 times as long pulling at the covers on storage sites than at the covers on sites where they had not stored food. This experiment indicates that chickadees
