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.

There are many traits for which it seems natural selection should favor an increase every generation, such as survival from birt
Tom [10]

Answer:

Natural selection has been studied since Charles Darwing first started his research.

Explanation:

<em>Basically natural selection changes the frequency of traits. Left themselves in large , freely interbreeding populations, the frequency of traits will remain the same from generation to generation. The traits are often heritable, in living organisms, many characteristics are inherited, or passed from parent to offspring. </em>

<em>The reasons why we mightt not see a response to directional selection on such a trait are:</em>

  1. <em>More offspring are produced than can survive.</em>
  2. <em> Organisms are capable of producing  more offspring than their environments can support.  </em>
  3. <em>Offspring vary in their heritable  traits. </em>

A) What are the dependent &amp; independent variables?
andre [41]

Answer:

an independent variable is a variable that we choose to change to see that happens. ( eg. the temperature when testing evaporation).

a dependent variable is the variable that we measure. ( so maybe how much water evaporates)

What are electromagnetic waves that you can see?
Nataliya [291]
<span><span>Radio waves: If our eyes could see radio waves, we could (in theory) watch TV programs just by staring at the sky! Well not really, but it's a nice idea. Typical size: 30cm–500m. Radio waves cover a huge band of frequencies, and their wavelengths vary from tens of centimeters for high-frequency waves to hundreds of meters (the length of an athletics track) for lower-frequency ones. That's simply because any electromagnetic wave longer than a microwave is called a radio wave.</span><span>Microwaves: Obviously used for cooking in microwave ovens, but also for transmitting information in radar equipment. Microwaves are like short-wavelength radio waves. Typical size: 15cm (the length of a pencil).</span><span>Infrared: Just beyond the reddest light we can see, with a slightly shorter frequency, there's a kind of invisible "hot light" called infrared. Although we can't see it, we can feel it warming our skin when it hits our face—it's what we think of as radiated heat. If, like rattlesnakes, we could see infrared radiation, it would be a bit like having night-vision lenses built into our heads. Typical size: 0.01mm (the length of a cell).</span><span>Visible light: The light we can actually see is just a tiny slice in the middle of the spectrum.</span><span>Ultraviolet: This is a kind of blue-ish light just beyond the highest-frequency violet light our eyes can detect. The Sun transmits powerful ultraviolet radiation that we can't see: that's why you can get sunburned even when you're swimming in the sea or on cloudy days—and why sunscreen is so important. Typical size: 500 nanometers (the width of a typical bacteria).</span><span>X rays: A very useful type of high-energy wave widely used in medicine and security. Find out more in our main article on X rays. Typical size: 0.1 nanometers (the width of an atom).</span><span>Gamma rays: These are the most energetic and dangerous form of electromagnetic waves. Gamma rays are a type of harmful radiation. Typical size: 0.000001 nanometers (the width of an atomic nucleus).</span></span>
