What is their source? 
- they could be a part of a marketing scam 
- the key question is: how do they know? 
- <span> Who produced it and what background do they have?
- what other studies could the group have produced?</span>

Is the main point of the claim proven by evidence? 
- In order to figure out if something is reliable or not, you have to ask whether it makes sense and whether the conclusions were proven
- do the conclusions follow logically from what has been cited, or are they being drawn from evidence that doesn't support them at all? 

Do the sources have a bias? 
- That<span> doesn’t necessarily mean what they have to say isn’t reliable
- But think about whether they are a witness to facts or are just describing their opinion

maria [59]

Answer AND Explanation:

The thyroid gland secretes thyroxine, an iodine-containing hormone. The thyroxine stimulates carbohydrate, protein and lipid metabolism in most organs and tissues of the body.

Which of the following is not a function of actin-binding proteins? Select one:
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

option d. end capping

Explanation:

The ABP or actin binding proteins are attached with actin. The actin filaments are attached with ABP. The actin binding proteins provide large number of monomers of actin for polymerization. The ABP also help in new filament assembly. The ABP function in promoting the process of elongation. The ABP allows filament severing/depolymerization.

The end is attached with cap having the pointed or barbed ends. The barbed end gets attached with capping proteins (CP) thus blocking polymerization. So, ABP are not involved in end capping. Thus, option d is incorrect.
