    Study Notes

    Glycosidic Linkages in Cellulose and Amylose

    • Cellulose and amylose are polysaccharides.
    • Cellulose has β 1-4 glycosidic linkages.
    • Amylose has α 1-4 glycosidic linkages.

    Lac Operon and β-Galactosidase

    • The lac operon regulates the breakdown of lactose in bacteria.
    • A mutation in the operator locus of the lac operon can result in constitutive expression of β-galactosidase.
    • A cis-dominant mutation affects only the allele on the same chromosome.

    Identifying Points Above a Line

    • The question requires identification of a point above a line.
    • The provided points are: P = (3, 1/3), Q = (1/3, 1), R = (11/3, 1/3), and S = (11/3, 3).
    • Information about the line is missing from the provided text.
