Which type of mutagen has a structure similar to one of the DNA nucleotides and therefore can work its way into DNA, where it pairs with a nucleotide?

In the gene diagram below, which region will correspond to the N-terminus of the resulting protein product?

Is this statement True or False? Regulated gene expression allows bacteria to adapt their metabolism to match changes in the environment.

Artificial genes can be introduced into bacterial cells where they can be expressed. However, it is very unlikely that a eukaryotic gene copied in its entirety into a bacterial chromosome will be expressed in a bacterial cell. Which of the following is a possible reason why a eukaryotic gene would not be expressed properly in a bacteria cell?

Is this statement True or False? All bacterial genes are subject to regulation. 

Intrinsic termination in prokaryotes occurs when the rho termination factor interacts with the terminator region in the DNA.
