Answer:

Rods.

Explanation:

There are two types of photoreceptor cells, the cones, and the rods.

The cones adapt our vision to bright light and allow us to see colors. On the other hand, rods photoreceptors make us see in the dark and do not perceive many colors; that is why we can not distinguish colors in the dark. Also, they provide peripheral vision since they are on the external edges of the retina.

klasskru [66]

Answer: c. proteasome

Explanation:

Proteasomes are extremely important multi-catalytic proteases and are involved in various cellular functions. The proteasome is an essential component of eukaryotic cells and is responsible for the ATP-dependent proteolytic degradation of most cellular proteins. They are present in the nucleus and cytosol and can represent up to 1% of total cell proteins. Proteasomes generally degrade proteins to small peptides, most of which are rapidly hydrolyzed by cytoplasmic exopeptidases. It catalyzes the rapid degradation of many enzymes, regulatory proteins, and eliminates abnormal proteins resulting from mutation or damaged proteins. The inability of this cellular organelle can lead to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson´s disease.
