Question

Inheritance of a character is also affected by promoter and
regulatory sequences of a structural gene Hence, sometime the
regulatory sequences are loosely defined as regulatory genes, even
though these sequences do not code for any protein

Please explain these lines in detail

Dear student,

The promoter sequence and regulatory sequence in a DNA segment
control the activity and functionality of RNA polymerase RNA poly
polymerase binds with the promoter sequence for starting the
process of transcription This promoter may be weak or strong and it
is regulated by a non-coding regulatory sequence
So the character would be inherited in the form of a protein This
protein is formed by the transcription of structural genes in DNA
through RNA polymerase
