Answer: Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called a "tract"
Explanation:
Axons(nerve fiber) consist of long slender projection of neurons or nerve cells that conduct and transmit impulses away from the neuron or nerve cell body. Axons are surrounded by endoneurium layer which contain protein fluid that surround each axon.
Bundles of axon in the CNS is known as tract. We have ascending tracts and descending tracts. The ascending tracts function are to conduct and carry impulses along the spinal cord to the brain while the descending tracts transmit and carry the impulses from the brain to lower regions (downward) of the body. Tracts are identified by their origin (where the bundle start) and also the end/termination of axon bundle.
The largest tracts are fasciculi gracilis and cuneatus which are known as ascending tracts.
Answer: c. proteasome
Explanation:
Proteasomes are extremely important multi-catalytic proteases and are involved in various cellular functions. The proteasome is an essential component of eukaryotic cells and is responsible for the ATP-dependent proteolytic degradation of most cellular proteins. They are present in the nucleus and cytosol and can represent up to 1% of total cell proteins. Proteasomes generally degrade proteins to small peptides, most of which are rapidly hydrolyzed by cytoplasmic exopeptidases. It catalyzes the rapid degradation of many enzymes, regulatory proteins, and eliminates abnormal proteins resulting from mutation or damaged proteins. The inability of this cellular organelle can lead to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson´s disease.

The United Kingdom.
