A scientific theory explains the reason for the occurrence of phenomena. However, a scientific law is limited to applicability and does not give any explanation regarding the phenomena in which it can be applied to.

a scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon with a lot of testing. It doesn't explain why the phenomenon exists or what causes it. The explanation of a phenomenon is called a scientific theory. It is a misconception that theories turn into laws with enough research.

Choose the true statements about amyloid fibrils. 3 options are correct.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Options 1, 3 and 4.

Because most newly synthesized proteins fold correctly, the accumulation of misfolded proteins (or fragments) tends to occur slowly, thus explaining the slow onset of disease.

An amyloid fibril is stabilized by hydrophobic interactions between aromatic residues.

4) Soluble proteins that misfold and form amyloid fibrils become insoluble.

Explanation:

Amloid fibrils are peptide or proteins that are formed during invivo or invitro conditions. They ate formed when soluble proteins combine together to for insoluble fibres that are resistant to degradation. They are found in extracellular tissues and posses pathological effect. They accumulate after nerve cells and causes several illness.
