Answer:

Funding for alternative energy search often changes with the cost of fossil fuels. It is also influenced by investments in stopping pollution and conserving natural resources. For example, an energy crisis in the 1970s led to more funding for oil alternatives.

Answer:

Without funding, it is difficult for science to progress. Society is largely responsible for how funding is spent. Members of society can choose whether or not to support government funding for certain research.

Explanation:

Its the sample response. You're so close to the end of the school year good job! :D

EDIT: I realized this is for the question:

"Read the article titled Science and Society. Explain how society plays a role in how science is funded."

Not the one in the original question but hopefully it still helps.

Where should the biosphere label appear in the system model? Use reasoning to explain your answer.
Leto [7]

Answer:

Biosphere is the one of the sphere of geological sphere of the earth such as geosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere. It is deal with the interaction and existence of the living organisms.

In this model it can be seen that there are human, fishes, and vegetation of plants are living organisms so living organisms in the hydrosphere (fishes), geosphere (plants) and anthrosphere (human) should be label as biosphere instead of atmosphere or with atmosphere.

Why is it unique for living organisms to reproduce
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Reproduction is important for the survival of all living things. Without a mechanism for reproduction, life would come to an end.

Explanation:

Reproduction is a characteristic of all living systems; because no individual organism lives forever, reproduction is essential to the continuation of every species.

What role can exosomes play in disease treatment? who can tell me detailed information? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Exosomes as Therapeutic Target

Given the fact that elevated exosome levels are often correlated with greater severity of different types of cancer, reducing circulating exosomes to normal levels is one of therapeutic strategies to increase treatment efficacy. There are different approaches to modulate exosome production: 1) Inhibition of exosome formation: inhibit crucial proteins involved in exosome formation pathway; 2) Inhibition of exosome release: inhibit important regulators of exosome release process, increased intracellular Ca2+, change cellular microenvironmental pH; 3) Inhibition of exosome uptake: add proteinase for surface proteins on exosomes may serve as receptors for uptake pathways. In addition to control exosomes production, removal of exosomes from the entire circulatory system might be a novel strategy for cancer treatment.

Exosomes could also be used as cancer immunotherapy becasue tumor-derived exosomes carry antigens that is a great source of specific stimulus for the immune response against tumors. Both tumor-derived and dendritic cell-derived exosomes have showed capability to stimulate tumor antigen-specific responses in experimental animal models and human clinical trials.

Exosomes as Targeted Drug Delivery Vehicles

Exosomes became one of the most common methods applied in drug delivery system because of several advantages they have. Firstly, exosomes normally have a small size 40-100 nm, which is more homogenous compared to other microvesicles. This will lead them to evade rapid clearance by the mononuclear phagocyte and enhances passage through fenestrations in the vessel wall. Secondly, due to their endogenous origin, they are less toxic for and better tolerated by the immune system. It facilitates them to avoid causing side effects that normally occur with synthetic nanoparticles. Additionally, the specific ligand or protein expressed on the exosome surface increases efficiency of cargo into the cytosol of the target cell, and therefore fewer off-target effects. Exosomes are generally found most useful as a drug delivery medium in cancer therapy, anti-inflammation and gene interference therapy such as transferring of miRNA.

There are different kinds of cargos encapsulated by exosomes, especially like siRNA or miRNA. The delivery of RNA is attracting because they are rapid degradation in cell circulation and have the limitation in passing through the membrane and in cellular uptake. Chemotherapeutics loaded into exosomes is also used for cancer therapy such as doxorubicin. In principle, there are four key components to achieve correct functionality and efficacy during exosomes drug delivery:1) Choosing the donor cell type to produce drug-carrying exosomes; 2) Using correspond methods to encapsulate the exosomes cargo; 3) Enhancing the specificity of cargo delivery by targeting peptides on the surface of the exosomes; 4) Administrating exosomes to target the area of disease.

Describe the function of. Endoplasmic reticulum
Harrizon [31]
The endoplasmic reticulum can either be smooth or rough, and in general its function is to produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function. The rough endoplasmic reticulum has on it ribosomes, which are small, round organelles whose function it is to make those proteins.
