Answer: The correct answer is- E) structural framework.

Fibrous proteins are water insoluble, elongated filamentous like structures that that provide structural framework ( they have special types of helices in their structures) to the cells or tissues of organisms.

They contain repetitive amino acid sequences in their structure that provides strength to the structure.

They are very less sensitive to any change in pH, temperature, as well as enzymatic digestion.

They are usually involved in the formation of connective tissue.

Example of fibrous protein- Actin, myosin, elastin, keratin.

alexandr1967 [171]
The measles, mumps and the rubella vaccine [MMR] is usually given to children twice before the age of 7.  The first dose is given between age 12 to 15 months while the second dose is given between the ages of 4 and 6. Many people link the MMR vaccines to autism because of a scientific publication that was published in 1989. The research study reported a link between autism and MMR vaccination. This publication has been discredited.
Also, the period of during which the first dose of the vaccination is usually given coincides with the time when parents usually notice developmental abnormalities in their children.
