E)associated with response to distinct events through induction and repression signals.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This gene is likely regulated through both induction and repression in response to distinct events or signals at different times, allowing it to be active only when needed for the essential pathway. This dynamic regulation ensures the gene is expressed at the necessary time points and not at others, optimizing the organism's use of resources and ensuring proper development or function.
