Answer:

The 2nd part, "But some are useful" - simplifications of reality can be quite useful. They can help us explain, predict and understand the universe and all its various components. The idea of this quote is that every single model will be wrong, meaning that it will never represent the exact real behaviour.

The cells show characteristics of tumors.  

Tumor cells have the ability to grow and proliferate in absence of adhesion or anchoring. This is particularly helpful during metastasis when a cancer cell travels through the bloodstream to another location.

A cancerous cell has a number of mutations that regulate cell division. In addition, they exhibit impairment in DNA repair system. Therefore, cancer cell divided fast. Since the DNA repair system is nonfictional, the cells do not pause division to repair the mutation.</span>

A mutation in a G-protein prevents the alpha-subunit from dissociating from the beta/gamma-subunit. What effect will this have o
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

the pathway will be under-expressed.

  • the alpha subunit helps to bind with either GDP or GTP. when the α subunit is bound with GDP, it will be bound to β and γ subunits and thus forms an inactive state for G-protein.
  • when the alpha subunit binds with the GTP, it becomes activated and dissociates β and γ subunits.

if G-protein Coupled Receptor is unable from dissociating β and γ subunits, then the pathway will go under expression.  

The chemical qualities of the alpha subunit allow it to bind easily to one of two guanine subunits, GDP or GTP. The protein thus has two functional formations. When GDP is bound to the alpha subunit, the alpha subunit remains bound to the beta-gamma subunit to form an inactive trimeric protein.

G-proteins, cAMP, and Ion Channel Opening. The alpha subunit activates adenylate cyclase, in purple, and loses GTP. Adenylate cyclase converts ATP to cyclic AMP, which then activates Protein Kinase, shown in blue. Protein Kinase phosphorylates an ion channel, letting sodium ions rush into the cell.

As a result of the ligand binding to its site on the G-protein-linked receptor, A) the G-protein changes conformation and GTP replaces the GDP on the alpha subunit. ... Inactivation of the alpha subunit occurs when its own phosphorylase activity removes a phosphate from the GTP.
