Gene Regulation starts at 11 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Gene Regulation.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 12
A mutation in the promoter region of a gene reduces the binding of RNA polymerase. What is the likely effect on gene expression?
A scientist observes that a gene is highly expressed in liver cells but not in muscle cells. What is the most likely explanation?
Describe how gene regulation is important during embryonic development.
Describe the difference between constitutive and regulated gene expression.
Describe the difference between positive and negative gene regulation.
Describe the role of transcription factors in gene regulation.
Explain how alternative splicing can increase protein diversity.
Explain how microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression.
Explain how the presence of glucose affects the lac operon in E. coli.
Explain the significance of feedback inhibition in gene regulation using the trp operon as an example.
In the context of gene regulation, what is an operon?
What is the function of a promoter in gene regulation?
