Answer:

Protein phosphorylation can activate/deactivate protein function, while small RNAs can be used for repressing translation of mRNAs through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway

Explanation:

Protein phosphorylation is one of the most important posttranslational modifications (PTMs) that acts to activate, inhibit, or reversibly switch on/off protein function. Protein phosphorylation confers a reversible and versatile process that cells use to transmit signals and respond to environmental stimuli. This PTM is well known to modify the tertiary structure of the protein and thus activate/inhibit protein functions such as, for example, signaling pathways associated with protein interactions. In consequence, protein phosphorylation can be used by a cell to regulate Brec activity. On the other hand, small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) such as, for example, microRNAs (miRNAs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), and PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), are regulatory molecules that bind by complementary base pairing to messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in order to repress translation and/or trigger mRNA degradation through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. The RNAi pathway is widely used in molecular biology to silence genes of interest (for example, in this case, the gene that encodes for the kinase D protein).

Living organisms release energy gradually. why?
MArishka [77]

Answer:Living organisms release energy gradually to prevent most of the energy from heat loss. The cells release the chemical energy present in food and it should be utilized gradually to prevent the energy loss in the form of heat and light.Most of the energy released by the body is through cellular respiration.The energy is produced by the continuous process that occurs in the body ,breakdown of food and energy production.If a huge amount of energy will be released from the body it will only be in the form of heat loss so to prevent the energy from lost in the form of heat living organism release energy gradually

A researcher places dogs in a cage with metal bars on the floor. the dogs are randomly given electric shocks and can do nothing
kifflom [539]

The answer choices to this question are:

<span>a.       </span>Learned helplessness.

<span>b.      </span>Stimulus discrimination. 

<span>c.       </span>Aversive conditioning. 

<span>d.      </span>Vicarious learning.

The best answer choice is:

<span>a. </span>Learned helplessness

<span>Explanation: Learned helplessness was studied by Seligman as a potential animal model of depression. Learned helplessness occurs when people or animals feel helpless to avoid negative situations. Martin Seligman first observed learned helplessness when he was doing experiments on dogs. He noticed that the dogs didn't try to escape the shocks if they had been conditioned to believe that they couldn't escape.</span>
