B) The fewer HREs present, the more vigorous transcription.
C) The HREs are specific sequences present in the tRNA molecule.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hormone response elements (HREs) are specific nucleotide sequences in DNA that bind to specific hormone receptors, leading to changes in gene expression. The more HREs present in a gene, the more binding sites for hormone receptors and the more vigorous the transcriptional response.
