<span>I will advise the farm manager not to use the sea water for irrigation as the sea water is of lower water potential than the roots of the wheat. If sea water is used to irrigate the fields, all wheat plants will die from dehydration as water will move out from the roots to the surrounding because a potential gradient is present between the root tissues and the soil.</span>

What is the effect of defective or missing N-acetylglucosamine phosphotransferase on lysosomal protein sorting?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The deficiency in this enzyme causes that it begins erroneously label other enzymes. Because the activating proteins are not properly labeled, they escape into spaces outside the cell and do not disintegrate substances inside the cells, that is, lysosomes cannot perform their function correctly. This causes waste products, which must include carbohydrates, lipids and proteins, accumulate in specific masses as inclusion bodies.
