Answer:

Mid Oceanic Ridge (MOR) to Deep-Oceanic trench

Explanation:

As the plate tectonic theory is a continuous process, so at some places, divergent plate movement takes place whereas at other places, convergent plate movement takes place. So from that context we can conclude that initially two plates moves apart from each other, and this plates then collides with the other nearby plates, thereby the heavier one gets subducted beneath the other, forming a deep sea trench.

In alzheimer's disease patients, amyloid plaques develop that contain misfolded beta-amyloid proteins. based on this observation

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Based on this observation you would predict that the MISFOLDED BETA AMYLOID PROTEINS COULD NOT BE REFOLDED BY THE CHAPERONE PROTEINS.
Chaperon proteins are proteins which assist newly formed proteins to form correctly. A protein that is already mis-folded can not be refolded by the chaperone proteins.
