Answer:

The correct answer will be option other scientists repeated the experiment.

Explanation:

Ernst Rutherford is also known as "Father of nuclear physics" known for his planetary model of atom called "Rutherford model of the atom". He proposed and demonstrated the model in 1911 explaining that atom carries a small charged nucleus in the center which is surrounded by the tiny electrons.

The Rutherford's atomic model was accepted by the scientific community at that time because of the probable reason that his results were based on experiments which were also supported by the experiments of other scientists who repeated the experiments to check the accuracy and feasibility of the model. His experiments were repeated by a famous scientist and his student James Chadwick who discovered neutrons.

Thus, option other scientists repeated the experiment is the correct answer.

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. It is because other scientists repeated the experiment that caused <span>community to accept Rutherford's atomic model. After his gold foil experiment, other scientists confirmed his findings and found out the same. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Which process must occur for a muscle to be able to relax?

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: The correct option is D.

The concentration of calcium in the myofibril must decrease.

Explanation:

This is because calcium makes myosin, actin and ATP to interact which actually lead to the contraction of muscle fibre.

Relaxation of muscle fibres occurs when the nerves stop stimulating. The result in the pumping of Calcium into the sarcoplasmic reticulum which then cause a break in the link that connect actin and myosin. Actin and myosin return to their unbound state leading to the relaxation of the muscle .

What is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncogenes?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Oncogenes result from a mutation in proto-oncogenes.

Explanation:

Protooncogenes control the growth and division of cells.
The proteins encoded by proto-oncogenes include growth factors, growth factor receptors, transcription factors and signal transducers.
They contribute to the transformation process by driving cell proliferation or reducing sensitivity to cell death.
Several types of genetic and epigenetic changes convert these proto-oncogenes to oncogenes.
Oncogenes arise due to the changes that increases the expression of proto-oncogenes .
Oncogenes are one of the causes of cancers.

A proto-oncogenes can turn into oncogene by following ways:

A point mutation such as deletion, insertion and substitution in the proto-oncogene can lead to formation of oncogenes.
Chromosomal translocation may result in activation of proto-oncogene as seen in Burkitt's lymphoma.
Insertion of a mobile genetic material such as retrovirus changes the gene expression, but leaves their coding sequence intact.
Activation of proto-oncogene can also occur from reduplication and amplification of DNA sequence.

Differentiate between unicellular ,colonial and multicellular organization

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Unicellular organisms are made up of only one cell that carries out all of the functions needed by the organism, while multicellular organisms use many different cells to function. Unicellular organisms include bacteria, protists, and yeast.
