a metabolic pathway, composed of an operon of genes that are expressed by the presence of the starting material, is referred to as__________ operon? A) decomposing operon B) Calvin cycles operon C) constitutive operon D) a repressible operon E) an inducible operon

Step 1
In this case, the genes are expressed when the starting material is present. This means that the starting material acts as an inducer, turning on the expression of the genes. Show more…
