BARSIC [14]3 years ago
3 0
Carbon is the only element that can form so many different compounds because each carbon atom can form four chemical bonds to other atoms, and because the carbon atom is just the right, small size to fit in comfortably as parts of very large molecules.

Ras is a g-protein that is activated when a growth factor attaches to egfr. its activation results in the in the exchange of gtp
Artist 52 [7]
RAS is a very important protein that belongs to a class of protein referred to as GTPases and plays a crucial role in switching on pathways that control cell growth, proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation and migration. For RAS to become inactive it must hydrolyze GTP to GDP which slows down the process of cell proliferation. Mutation in one copies of RAS will result to cancer because the mutated copy will permanently attach to GTP and remain in activated form which will lead to uncontrollable cell division and hence development of cancer.

Which three of the following entities are acellular?.
arsen [322]

Answer:

Prions archea, viroids bacteria, viruses protists are acellular while fungi is cellular.

While viruses have indeed been closely researched for more than a century for infections of people and animals, most viruses, particularly those that infect microorganisms, are still poorly understood. 

Pathogenic RNA molecules are known as viroids. Contagious protein particles are identified as prions. Viruses are larger than that of viroids. Viroids are larger than prions in size.

Molds, wild yeasts, as well as mushrooms are examples of fungi. Numerous fungi are multicellular and also have nuclei in their cells. A protein-encased DNA or RNA core defines viruses being non - cellular organisms. Some scientists disagree with the notion that viruses are living things.
