A)How is the lac operon regulated if the bacteria is put into an environment where there is excess amount of lactose and glucose at the same time. (10 pts)
B)From the previous question, how would the outcome change if the glucose and lactose amounts are very low? (10 pts)
C)Where would the lac repressor be bound in E. Coli bacteria that is growing in low glucose and high lactose? (7pts)

Compare and contrast how lipid soluble and amino-acid derived hormone signaling can control gene expression. At what level do they control gene expression? How do they control it? In your answer, be sure to explain: the flow of information from DNA to protein to describe how a gene is expressed and made into its protein product. Also the differences between receptors for amino acid-derived hormones and lipid soluble hormone

List nine traits that developed during human evolution. Two species that have each trait (you can't use the same species twice so it must be two new species for each trait) and approximately in millions of years when these adaptations took place.

please answer these questions all of them for quick
1. Pick two organisms that have traits that allow them to be perfectly adapted to their environments. For example, there are bright pink praying mantis that are perfectly camouflaged with pink flowers to allow them to be blended in with their environment so insects will not see them as they visit the flowers. Do not use the example provided as one of your organisms!
2. Provide a picture of each organism showing the traits that adapted them to their environments and provide a detailed description of each trait.
3. Describe when the traits may have evolved for each organism.
