Answer:
Explanation:
The oxidation state, sometimes referred to as oxidation number, describes the degree of oxidation (loss of electrons) of an atom in a chemical compound. Conceptually, the oxidation state, which may be positive, negative or zero, is the hypothetical charge that an atom would have if all bonds to atoms of different elements were 100% ionic, with no covalent component. This is never exactly true for real bonds.
The term oxidation was first used by Antoine Lavoisier to signify reaction of a substance with oxygen. Much later, it was realized that the substance, upon being oxidized, loses electrons, and the meaning was extended to include other reactions in which electrons are lost, regardless of whether oxygen was involved.

Answer:
The correct option is b. an amino-terminal signal
Explanation:
A polypeptide that will eventually fold to become an ion channel protein, it means a kind of integral membrane protein, has an amino terminal signal that indicates its delivery to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and then to the membrane. This type of signal usually consist in a nucleus of 6 to 12 aminoacids and one or more basic aminoacids. Once the polypeptide enters the ER, this signal is removed.
The following are the statements, which indicates that the fossil record suggests about evolution on Earth:
1. Humans have only recently existed on Earth.
2. The organisms originally lived only in Earth's water.
3. The plants did not have flowers when dinosaurs existed.
The fossil remains have been discovered in the rocks of all the ages. The simplest organisms fossils are witnessed in the oldest rocks, and the fossils of more composite species are found in the newest rocks. This supports the theory of evolution suggested by Darwin, according to which the simple life forms slowly gets evolved into more composite ones.
