A specialized structure within a cell that has its own specific function is known as a/an _______.
vichka [17]

Answer:

Organnelle

Ribosomes

Nucleus

Archaeabacteria

Phospholipid bilayer

Lipases

Explanation:

1. Organnelles are specialized structures in a cell designed to perform a particular function that will make the cell normal e.g. ribosome, Chloroplast, mitochondrion are examples of organnelles.

2. The Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) is one of the two endomembranous systems in the cell. It is characterized by its rough appearance which occurs as a result of ribosomes attached to its surface. This attachment of ribosomes makes its function related to protein synthesis.

3. Nucleus is a membrane bound organnelle found only in EUKARYOTIC cells. It houses the genetic material (DNA) of a cell and acts as the brain by directing all of the cellular activity of that cell.

4. Archaeabacteria is one of the six kingdoms in the hierarchical classification of living organisms. They contain unicellular and prokaryotic organisms that are uniquely characterized by their ability to survive extreme conditions e.g high temperature.

5. The plasma membrane is an outer covering that bounds the cells of both Prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. According to the fluid mosaic model that describes the structure of the cell membrane, it contains a phospholipid layer that confines its selective permeability upon it i.e. ability to control what goes in and out of the cell. This is due to the amphipathic nature of the phospholipid i.e. contains an hydrophobic and hydrophilic region.

6. Lipases are enzymes that are involved specifically in the breakdown of lipids and fat molecules into fatty acids and glycerol.

2) What happens to us after we die? How did so much life appear on our planet when others seem devoid of any species at all? Who, if anyone, pulls the strings of our universe? Is it some all-powerful god in control or are there physical and mathematical principles driving the engine of our existence?

Ras is a g-protein that is activated when a growth factor attaches to egfr. its activation results in the replacement of a gdp m
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

A mutation in Ras protein which will cause hyperactivity will eventually lead to cancer.

Explanation:

Ras protein was first discovered in Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) and it is a proto-oncogene product. In normal conditions, it plays an important role in cellular signalling but in case of gain of function/hyperactivity it gets converted into cellular oncogene. In several types of cancers a point mutation has been reported in Ras protein.

Just like G protein, it is also a GTPase switch protein but unlike G protein which is trimeric, it is monomeric. In the plasma membrane, it is attached with the help of lipids like prenyl or palmitoyl groups. During signal transduction pathway when it gets activated, it downstream activates MAPK pathway and causes gene expression but when it gets hyperactivated it causes over expression of genes leading to cancer.
