The Cross-Linkage Theory or also referred to as the glycosylation theory of aging was discovered or proposed by Johan Bjorksten in the 1940s. According to this theory, the aggregation of cross-linked proteins can damage cells and tissues this slowing down the bodily processes that eventually results to aging. In recent studies, cross-linking is associated with age-related changes in the studied proteins. Furthermore, this theory stresses out that the binding of glucose to proteins can cause various problems. Once the said binding occurs, the protein becomes impaired which leads to its performance inefficiency. Living a longer life would also mean increasing the possibility of oxygen-glucose meeting and protein. Some of the known cross-linking disorders include senile cataract and the appearance of tough, leathery, yellow skin.
-Plant cells are more rigid due to the cell wall.
Answer:
D) The fungicide will reduce the stability of the ecosystem because nutrients in the soil will be less likely to be recycled, directly impacting plant nutrition and growth.
Explanation:
Fungicide are primarily applied to an area to kill off fungi species in that place.
Fungi are very important groups of organisms. They are natural "recyclers".
In a food chain or web they can be classified as decomposers.
Decomposers are organisms that takes feeds on dead and decaying organic matter.
The produce useful materials and releases nutrients from life back into nature.
Killing them off by applying fungicides is a damaging act to their sustenance.
Without decomposers such as fungi, the ecosystem becomes less stable and soil nutrients will not be properly recycled.
I would recommend to move the slide away from the end of the viewing part of the microscope, so that if the lab partner were to adjust too much, that the viewing part of the microscope wouldn’t collide and passively crack the slide.
