Answer:

Endospores

Explanation:

Autoclaving is a sterilization method that involves the use of high temperature and pressure.  In medical application, it is used for the sterilization of medical equipment and also used for vulcanizing rubber and curing coatings in the chemical industry.

Autoclaving process destroys living cells as well as bacterial endospores. Endospores are tough non reproductive structures produced by some bacteria. They have the ability to be dormant, hence can enable bacteria to survive environmental stress.

Answer: Endospores.

Explanation:

Autoclaving is a sterilization method that is used to sterilize nutrient media,laboratory materials and uses high pressure to kill infectious agents and denature protein. It works base on the fact that the boiling point of water increases under high pressure. Autoclaving destroys living cells and endospores of bacteria. The endospores of bacteria are hard or tough in reproductive part.

How does loseing laforin give you epilepsy ( please use lots of detail in the answer)
Deffense [45]
<span>Lafora disease is the most severe teenage-onset progressive epilepsy, a unique form of glycogenosis with perikaryal accumulation of an abnormal form of glycogen, and a neurodegenerative disorder exhibiting an unusual generalized organellar disintegration. The disease is caused by mutations of the EPM2A gene, which encodes two isoforms of the laforin protein tyrosine phosphatase, having alternate carboxyl termini, one localized in the cytoplasm (endoplasmic reticulum) and the other in the nucleus. To date, all documented disease mutations, including the knockout mouse model deletion, have been in the segment of the protein common to both isoforms. It is therefore not known whether dysfunction of the cytoplasmic, nuclear, or both isoforms leads to the disease. In the present work, we identify six novel mutations, one of which, c.950insT (Q319fs), is the first mutation specific to the cytoplasmic laforin isoform, implicating this isoform in disease pathogenesis. To confirm this mutation's deleterious effect on laforin, we studied the resultant protein's subcellular localization and function and show a drastic reduction in its phosphatase activity, despite maintenance of its location at the endoplasmic reticulum.
