Dr. Jemison, the first woman of color in the world to go into space, served six years as a NASA astronaut. She flew aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour, STS-47 Spacelab J(apan) mission in September 1992 and was NASA’s first Science Mission Specialist performing experiments in material science, life science and human adaptation to weightlessness.
answer: Neuro filaments
explanation:
Neurofilaments (NF) are intermediate filaments found in the cytoplasm of neurons. Together with microtubules and microfilaments, they form the neuronalcytoskeleton. They are believed to function primarily to provide structural support for axons and to regulate axon diameter, which influences nerve conduction velocity.
Answer:
tertiary; quaternary
Explanation:
The orientation of all the atoms of a protein in three dimensions represents its tertiary structure. It includes the folding of the polypeptide chains in a way that brings are far apart amino acids of its secondary structure close together. Various segments of a polypeptide chain interact to form tertiary structures and these segments are held together by different kinds of weak interactions.
However, disulfide cross-links between the segments of polypeptide chains also stabilize the tertiary structure of some proteins. Likewise, disulfide bonds also hold the protein subunits of some proteins together and thereby, contribute to the quaternary structure. For example, two light chains of an antibody are joined together by disulfide bonds.
