The functioning of enhancers is an example of
a. a eukaryotic equivalent of prokaryotic promoter functioning.
b. transcriptional control of gene expression.
c. the stimulation of translation by initiation factors.
d. post-translational control that activates certain proteins.

b. transcriptional control of gene expression.

Explanation:

The binding sites of transcription factors (enhancers and silencers) can activate or deactivate, respectively, a gene in specific parts of the body.

Some genes must be expressed in a part of the body. For example, if you need to activate a gene in the spine, skull and toes, but not in the rest of the body, how can transcription factors do this task?

As a gene of this type of pattern it can have several enhancers or silencers, where each one can activate or repress the gene of a specific type of cell or part of the body, joining transcription factors that occur in that specific part of the body.

a. another part of the brain would compensate for the damage by taking over the memory function normally managed by the hippocampus

b.areas near the hippocampus would decay, followed by a cascading failure of the brain leading to death

c. people would become comatose

d. people would lose their ability to feel fear
