2024 ASU BIO 340 {COMBINED EXAMS} LATEST QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 100% VERIFIED What will be the effect on transcription when an inhibitor is in play? A. Allow transcription B. Prevent transcription - CORRECT ANSWER B Explanation: An inhibitor prevents activator from binding to DNA; activators are used in positive regulation (increasing transcription) - thus, the inhibitor prevents the activator from positive regulating (increasing) transcription. What will be the effect on transcription ...
