Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

The mass movement refers to the downward motion of soil, rock particles along a steep plane under the influence of gravity. This is also known as the mass wasting.

The factors that affects the mass movement are-

(a) Gravity

(b) Lack of vegetation

(c) Water content in the soil

(d) Lack of friction along the slope

(e) Weight of the overlying material

Based on how these materials (sediments) falls, it is divided into types-

(1) Creep

(2) Fall

(3) Slide

(4) Flow

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

To test for protein, you added Biuret solution and
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Water sample showing pink/purple color is an error.

Explanation:

Biuret is a blue color reagent that changes its color to pink/purple whenever it detects protein in a sample. Water don't contain proteins so it should not show pink/purple color instead it should maintain the blue color. Food items generally contain proteins so it show pink/purple color but it showed blue color.

Error might have caused by wrong marking of the samples, test tube marked with Water might contain a mystery food while Mystery food tube might contain water.

Why is it essential that the regulatory mechanisms that activate glycogen synthesis also deactivate glycogen phosphorylase? (sel
Alex_Xolod [135]
This is because such a mechanism of regulation prevents the simultaneous addition and removal of glucose monomers, preventing unnecessary reactions. Additionally. the two processes occur in the same location in the sell, thus this regulation makes the net process more efficient. When glycogen phosphorylase is phosphorylated its activity increases and vicevarsa.

Biocentrism is not considered when looking at life-centered environmental ethics
Murljashka [212]

The given statement is not true.  

Biocentrism in an ecological and political sense, as well as, in an ethical perspective encompasses intrinsic value to all the living creatures. It is an understanding of how the earth functions, mainly as it associates with biodiversity.  

The term biocentrism covers all the environmental ethics, which outspread the status of the moral object from human beings to all the living creatures in nature. Biocentrism witnesses each species as a component of the living biosphere.  

It witnesses the outcomes of minimizing biodiversity on both the large and small scales and emphasis towards the innate values all the species exhibits towards the environment.

1.) You are studying P120, a protein of 120 KDa that is continuously synthesized in eukaryotic cells. Its cellular concentration
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1. P120 is degraded in the 26S proteasome

2. The 26S proteasome has a major role in protein degradation and is critical for protein homeostasis

3. Cell cycle and DNA replication are cellular processes regulated by the Ras and NFkB pathways

Explanation:

The proliferation-associated nucleolar protein (p120) is a protein known to be expressed during the interphase of the cell cycle, specifically in G1 and early S phase, where any problem with DNA replication trigger a checkpoint, i.e., a molecular cascade of signaling events that suspend DNA replication until the problem is resolved. In mammalian cells, the 26S proteasome is responsible for catalyzing protein degradation of about 80% (or even more) of their proteins. The 26S proteasome acts to degrade rapidly misfolded and regulatory proteins involved in the cell cycle, thereby having a major role in protein homeostasis and in the control of cellular processes. It is for that reason that inhibitors that block 26S proteasome function have shown to be useful as therapeutic agents in diseases associated with the failure of protein degradation mechanisms (e.g., multiple myeloma). The NF-κB are highly conserved transcription factors capable of regulating different cellular processes including, among others, cellular growth, inflammatory responses and apoptosis. Moreover, the MAPK/ERK pathway is able to transduce different signals received on the cell surface to the nucleus. The MAPK/ERK pathway is activated when a singling molecule binds to a cell receptor which triggers a signaling cascade that ends when a transcription factor induces the expression of target genes, ultimately producing a response in the cell (for example, the progression through the cell cycle).
