Almeda’s skin has lost some flexibility and the lens of her left eye is beginning to cloud. she is concerned that the normally separate protein fibers that make up her body’s connective tissue are forming bonds with one another. you can tell almeda that she can reduce cross-linking by: .

Eating a healthy diet

Explanation:

Connective tissue is characterized by varying amounts of extracellular matrix, which surrounds various cell types. This tissue is also called support tissue, since it is related to the epithelial and muscular tissues to which it gives support and fills the spaces between cells and organs. Also, the eye's outer layer is made of dense connective tissue, which protects the eyeball. In addition, the connective tissue transports nutrients from the blood capillaries to the various tissues and, conversely, also mobilises waste products from metabolism into the blood.

There are many protein fibers found in connective tissues such as collagen which provide strength to the tissue, preventing it from being torn. So, formation of connective tissue proteins like is affected by a nutrition deficiency.

A healthy, balanced diet, including the proper amounts of protein, can prevent the skin and vision problems she has.

transcription is a process in which information is rewritten. it is something our cells must do, in a more specialized and narrowly defined way. in biology, transcription is the process of copying out the dna sequence of a gene in the similar alphabet of rna. it needs to happen in the nucleus because that's where the dna is. dna is always inside the nucleus unless the cell is dividing.

transcription is the first step in gene expression, which involves copying a gene's dna sequence to make an rna molecule. transcription is performed by rna polymerases. it has three stages: initiation, elongation, and termination. rna molecules must be processed after transcription in eukaryotes.

explanation:

long version:

the protein synthesis consists two processes which are, transcription and translation. transcription takes place in the nucleus. it uses dna as a template to make an rna molecule. rna then leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome in the cytoplasm, where translation occurs. transcription is the first part of the central dogma of molecular biology: dna → rna. it is the transfer of genetic instructions in dna to messenger rna (mrna). during transcription, a strand of mrna is made that is complementary to a strand of dna.  

these three stages are:

  initiation: in which   is the beginning of transcription.occuring when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

    elongation: in which is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

    termination: in which is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.

ya the other dude is right
