A patient comes into your clinic with unexplained paralysis in her limbs. She has no history of neuromuscular problems. After further questioning you find that that she had taken a drug “X.” Explain the effect of a possible toxin in the drug on actin filaments that might be the cause of her paralysis.
Name two similarities and two differences between the cellular processes of importing protein into the ER and importing protein to the nucleus.
Explain the role of the Endoplasmic Reticulum in protein folding. Consider quality control, the solutions to folding and refolding, and the degradation of proteins.

Kiwifruit (Actinidia) vines are being infected by a disease caused by the bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae, called ‘Psa’.The gold variety of kiwifruit appears to be particularly susceptible to the disease, which is spread by airborne spores. Early symptoms of the disease are brown, angular leaf spots, sometimes surrounded by a yellow halo, and leaf curl. The disease impacts the health and viability of the plant, not the fruit directly.Psa has the potential to devastate the kiwifruit growing industry. The future of the kiwifruit industry will be dependent on the development of a range of kiwifruit varieties that are resistant to Psa. Discuss the biological implications of selective breeding of resistant kiwifruit varieties. Your answer should include details on how selective breeding of these plants is carried out and the advantages and biological implications of having Psa-resistant kiwifruit vines.

Using an example, explain why it is necessary to determine the genotypes of the gametes of the mated individuals in order to predict the phenotypes of their offspring.
Transgenic technology have disadvantages like allergic reaction, emergence of super pests and loss of biodiversity. So how we can prevent or overcome this issues?

nd diagram: Show how the leading strand (at least 8 nucleotides long) undergoes
replication. Make sure to show specific nucleotides (show at least 20 nucleotides on
the parent of the complementary leading strand).
● Label the polarity of both strands.
● Indicate direction of replication fork and direction of leading strand replication.
● Include all enzymes involved in the replication of this leading strand. Make sure to
indicate in your drawing where the enzyme(s) would be working on the DNA
molecule.
