Answer:

The cells that are most affected by Primary Lateral Sclerosis are muscle cells and neurons.

Explanation:

Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLE) is a condition that affects the portion of the peripheral nerves that are responsible for innervating the striated muscles, producing muscle stiffness and paralysis.

The cause of PLE is unknown and it produces a degeneration of the supporting tissue —glial tissue— in the lateral portion of the spinal cord and nerves, which is in charge of activating the muscle tissue. As a result, the cells most affected are the neurons, which do not fulfill their function, and the muscle cells that tend to atrophy.

The other answer combinations are wrong choices because:

  • <em>Primary lateral sclerosis does not affect the epithelial tissue or the liver cell.</em>

How do protons contribute towards making ATP?...
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: Protons contribute towards making ATP by producing proton-motive force that provides energy for ATP synthesis.

Explanation: In the respiratory chain, the transfer of electrons from one complex to another is accompanied by pumping of protons out of the matrix. This creates a difference in proton concentration and separation of charge across the mitochondrial inner membrane. The electrochemical energy inherent in this difference in proton concentration called proton-motive force is used to drive ATP synthesis as protons flow back passively into the matrix through a proton pore.

Of all the organisms that are living today what percentage will eventually become fossils
Pani-rosa [81]

✯Hello✯☆(❁‿❁)☆

↪  I think its from 6%-10% of living organisms today that will become fossils

↪  Animals have a less likely chance since they have parts that are difficult to become fossils (like teeth, bones)

↪  Plants may decompose and go underwater to be used as Crude Oil

↪  Most of the population are humans, which will be extremely hard to fossilise

HOPE THIS HELPS
