1. 
3. Yes, genes X and Y were transcribed similarly. They both have a spike in transcriptions and then quickly fall nearing 0 by the end of hour 9.
5. According to OD 3.7 in Figure 4.12, TEF4 is depicted as repressed. This is possibly because TEF4 needs glucose to be able to transcribe, so as glucose supplies are reduced, the TEF4 gene's ability to transcribe reduce as well.
7. The gene can use the "guilt by association" mechanism to ensure genes for enzymes in a common pathway are induced or repressed simultaneously.
