2. interaction with protein
3. interaction with carbohydrate
4. interaction with nucleic acid
Lac operon is an example of
1. both positive and negative regulation
2. only negative regulation
3. only positive regulation
4. sometimes positive sometimes negative
Lac operon inhibition by repressor is an example of
1. negative regulation
2. positive regulation
3. neither positive nor negative
4. both positive and negative regulation
Regulation of lac operon can be visualised as regulation of enzyme synthesis by its
1. substrate
2. lactose
3. carbohydrates
4. All of these
Lac operon will be switched on when
