If proteins do not have the correct structure, they cannot function properly. Protein misfolding is a cellular malfunction that

occurs when proteins do not properly get modified and folded into their correct 3D shape after they are initially synthesized.
Which of these cell structures is most likely responsible for protein misfolding?

NUCLEOUS
LYSOSOME
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
MITOCHONDRIA

Answer:

The correct answer is - ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM

Explanation:

In the cell, all cell organelle performs a specific function. Protein synthesizes with the help of ribosomes then they are sent to the endoplasmic reticulum for folding the proteins to their correct form or shape before sending them to the Golgi body for packaging.

Protein folding is an important function performed by the ER and must be correctly folded into particular 3-D shapes in order to function correctly and if not correctly folded then degraded by lysosomes.

Trees use narrow tubes to transport water upward. Which property of water allows the water to rise in these narrow tubes?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

C. Cohesion of molecules

Explanation:

Cohesion is the interaction of molecules of the same substance together. By the force of cohesion if two drops of water come together they form one. Water has high rates of cohesion due to hydrogen bonds.  

This phenomenon also called surface tension and is what allows small insects to stand on water.

Cohesion along with adhesion of water to the walls of the narrow tube generate what is called capillarity. This allows liquids to ascend inside the narrow tubes. As long as the cohesion is less than the adhesion, the liquid will rise until both forces are equal.
