A student makes a model of a cell. He uses a plastic bag to represent the cell membrane. He fills it with a clear gel to represe

nt the cytoplasm. He puts in other materials to represent parts of the cell within the cell membrane. His teacher tells him that the plastic bag is not a good representation of the cell membrane. She suggests that the student find a material that better shows how a cell membrane works. The student makes another model using a woven cloth bag to represent the cell membrane. The teacher tells him that he made a good choice.
Why is the woven cloth a good choice for improving the student’s cell model?

1.) You are studying P120, a protein of 120 KDa that is continuously synthesized in eukaryotic cells. Its cellular concentration
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1. P120 is degraded in the 26S proteasome

2. The 26S proteasome has a major role in protein degradation and is critical for protein homeostasis

3. Cell cycle and DNA replication are cellular processes regulated by the Ras and NFkB pathways

Explanation:

The proliferation-associated nucleolar protein (p120) is a protein known to be expressed during the interphase of the cell cycle, specifically in G1 and early S phase, where any problem with DNA replication trigger a checkpoint, i.e., a molecular cascade of signaling events that suspend DNA replication until the problem is resolved. In mammalian cells, the 26S proteasome is responsible for catalyzing protein degradation of about 80% (or even more) of their proteins. The 26S proteasome acts to degrade rapidly misfolded and regulatory proteins involved in the cell cycle, thereby having a major role in protein homeostasis and in the control of cellular processes. It is for that reason that inhibitors that block 26S proteasome function have shown to be useful as therapeutic agents in diseases associated with the failure of protein degradation mechanisms (e.g., multiple myeloma). The NF-κB are highly conserved transcription factors capable of regulating different cellular processes including, among others, cellular growth, inflammatory responses and apoptosis. Moreover, the MAPK/ERK pathway is able to transduce different signals received on the cell surface to the nucleus. The MAPK/ERK pathway is activated when a singling molecule binds to a cell receptor which triggers a signaling cascade that ends when a transcription factor induces the expression of target genes, ultimately producing a response in the cell (for example, the progression through the cell cycle).

Which of the following statements is true?
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: Fewer harmful mutations are inherited by sexual reproduction than by asexual reproduction.

Explanation:

A germline mutation is the mutation in the germ cells (of the fully developed sperm and ovum) of the parents. When the affected parents undergoes with the sexual reproduction the mutations are passed from the parents to the offsprings. When either the mutated oocyte or mutated sperm meet to form a zygote the precursor of new life. Thus few mutations are inherited by sexual reproduction than by asexual reproduction.
