The Ras protein functions as a molecular switch that is set to its "on" state by other proteins that cause it to expel its bound

GDP and bind GTP. A GTPase-activating protein helps reset the switch to the "off" state by inducing Ras to hydrolyze its bound GTP to GDP much more rapidly than it would without this encouragement. Thus, Ras works like a light switch that one person turns on and another turns off. You are given a mutant cell that lacks the GTPase-activating protein. What abnormalities would you expect to find in the way in which Ras activity responds to extracellular signals?

Answer: Ras activity would be significantly slower in its response to extracellular signals.

Explanation:

• GTPase acts as a catalyst in converting RasGTP (active state) to RasGDP (inactive state)

• A mutant lacking the GTPase activating protein cannot activate GTPase so thee will nit be any functional GTPase

• if GTPase is not present then RasGTP may be expdessed for longer periods of time and there will be a lag until it eventually switches "off)

How does archbishop usshers work compare to that of james hutton
Nataly_w [17]

<span>James Ussher was a creative scholar, a church leader and became famous for his genuine letters of the church. He is the Archbishop of all Ireland and majorly impacted Reformation theology.  He is best known for his chronology research that concluded Adam was created in 4004 B.C. In reality, Ussher was a first-class scholar very involved in scholarly research. He regularly interacted with “the most learned men of the day” to intellectually savor their ideas. He was also “a real connoisseur of books,” and there was scarcely a book in any British library that he was unfamiliar with. While James Hutton is known as the Father of Modern Geology, Hutton is a Scottish Geologist and a naturalist who originated the concept of earth’s crust during geological history, which explains the features of the Earth's crust by means of natural processes over geologic time.  Hutton had formulated controversial theories of the origin of the earth and of atmospheric changes known as 'uniformitarian’s'. This paved the way for modern geological science.</span>
