The propositions are:
a.alkylating agents
b.antimetabolites
c.topisomerase inhibitors
d.nucleoside analogs
e.<span>AZT
The right answer is A,
An alkylating agent is a compound capable of adding alkyl groups to various electronegative groups under conditions present within the cells.
Antimetabolites are an anticancer drug but act differently than the alkylating agent. (interfere with folic acid)
Topoisomerase inhibitor acts by inhibiting isomerase, used in antibiotherapy (like quinolones).
Nucleoside analogs are analogs as their name says, it does not alkylate nucleotides.
AZT (</span><span>Zidovudine) is an antiretroviral drug that inhibits reverse transcriptase.</span>
Cells with large numbers of mitochondria have a high energy demand
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
in the early 1900s development of Salvarsan, an arsenic-based drug to treat syphilis.
The best answer in this case is C, "the researchers applied creativity to solve a problem in running an experiment".
Distributing the computing load across the global community by sharing processing power is a creative response to tackle the challenge in simulating protein folding for the experiment. This does not change or reduce the scientific merits of the experiment, so we can discount the first two answers (a & b). Answer d talks about well established scientific techniques, although the question wasn't really centered around the specific techniques, so it's not as relevant an answer as C.
