What does gene regulation in eukaryotic cells include?
A) activators that help RNA polymerase bind to the promoter
B) repressors that prevent DNA polymerase from binding
C) activation of the X chromosome
D) degradation of nucleases by mRNA

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gene regulation in eukaryotic cells includes activators, which help RNA polymerase bind to the promoter and initiate transcription.

Answer: B
 Gene regulation in eukaryotic cells also includes repressors, which prevent RNA polymerase from binding to the promoter and decrease or halt transcription.

Answer: C
 Activation of the X chromosome is a specific example of gene regulation in eukaryotic cells, but it is not a general characteristic of all types of gene regulation.

Answer: D
 Degradation of nucleases by mRNA is not a process involved in gene regulation in eukaryotic cells.
