Diagram the hydrological cycle. Include the terms evaporation, transpiration, percolation,

groundwater, runoff, condensation, and precipitation. What will be an ideal response?


Concepts to Consider: Starting with a cloud, the water condenses and ultimately falls to Earth either
as precipitation over land or the ocean; water percolates through the soil and may reach the
groundwater, be taken up by plants, or run off into bodies of water; water taken up by plants may be
transpired and reenter the atmosphere in this way. Water also reenters the atmosphere via evaporation
from bodies of water

You are studying regulation of a prokaryotic operon. Experiments show that expression of the operon is increased when levels of biosynthetic product from that pathway are low. Based on this information, what is a likely mode of regulation?  

A.  The product binds a repressor, allowing it to bind the operator. B.  The product binds an activator, helping RNA polymerase to bind the promoter. C.  The product binds a repressor, preventing it from binding the operator. D.  The product binds to the biosynthetic enzymes, blocking them directly.
