One example of an oncogene is ras. Ras is a G protein that is activated when growth factors bind to a G protein-coupled receptor. The mutated form of ras binds to GTP but does not allow the GTP to be broken down to GDP. Ras is involved in both the G 1 and G 2 checkpoints. What happens to cells that have this mutated form of ras

Amylase is an enzyme found in the human digestive system. why do you think it was important to keep the enzyme temperature above 37 degrees celsius (98.6 degrees f)? describe what might happen if the temperature decreased by 10 degrees celsius.

Researchers determine that the biodiversity in a woodland region is declining. they identify two major threats to the region's biodiversity, a method to address each threat, and the expected outcome of each method. this information is shown in the table. threat method number of species that benefit number of years to see benefit habitat fragmentation reforestation 450 8 introduced prey species biological augmentation 150 2 which statement is an accurate explanation of the information in the table? a. biological augmentation would benefit only a few species because it is typically not very effective. b. biological augmentation would take less time to be effective because it targets the majority of prey species. c. reforestation would take the longest time to be effective because trees take several years to grow. d. reforestation would not benefit many species because most forest species live on the ground.

How does photosynthesis show the conservation of mass and energy?
