C)environmental
D)genetic

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Control of gene expression allows the bacterial cell to respond to changing environmental conditions, such as nutrient availability, temperature, and pH. This enables the cell to conserve energy by producing only the necessary proteins for survival and adapting to changing circumstances. Internal conditions, such as cell cycle regulation, are also controlled through gene expression, but they do not directly respond to changing environmental conditions. Genetic conditions are determined by the DNA sequence and do not change in response to the environment. Protein conditions are not directly controlled by gene expression in bacteria.
