Biology

Serjik [45]4 years ago

With a light microscope one can view the nucleus and endoplasmic reticulum, large vacuoles etc

The resolution of a light microscope is dependent on the wavelength of light that is the main beam of illumination. Light has approximately 0.4 um (UV)- 0.7um (Infrared) wavelength. Organelles smaller than about 0.5 um will be difficult to discern with a light microscope.

With an electron microscope one can view, in addition, even the ribosomes and mitochondria, chromosomes, tubules etc.

An electron microscope can discern very minute details of a cell. This is because its resolution is dependent on the very small wavelength of a beam of electrons which is approximately 0.002 um (about 10,000 times powerful than a light microscope)

How do prions disrupt the normal function of an organism and cause diseases such as mad cow disease?
aev [14]

Answer:

Prions causes abnormal folding of the prion proteins in the brain.

Explanation:

Prions are the abnormal infectious agents composed only of the proteins and no nucleic acids. The prions cause several neurodegenerative diseases in the humans as well as the mammals.

The prions cause the cow mad disease in the cows by affecting the brain of the cow as the prions act on the prion proteins present in the brain only and change their conformation. This leads to the degeneration of the neurons and causes tiny pores in the brain giving sponge-like appearance.

This slows down the mental activity and thus ultimately leads to the death of the cow.
