Answer the following question given this paragraph: Cancer Proteomics Genomes and proteomes of patients suffering from specific diseases are being studied to understand the genetic basis of the disease. The most prominent disease being studied with proteomic approaches is cancer. Proteomic approaches are being used to improve screening and early detection of cancer; this is achieved by identifying proteins whose expression is affected by the disease process. An individual protein is called a biomarker, whereas a set of proteins with altered expression levels is called a protein signature. For a biomarker or protein signature to be useful as a candidate for early screening and detection of a cancer, it must be secreted in body fluids, such as sweat, blood, or urine, such that largescale screenings can be performed in a non-invasive fashion. The current problem with using biomarkers for the early detection of cancer is the high rate of false-negative results. A false negative is an incorrect test result that should have been positive. In other words, many cases of cancer go undetected, which makes biomarkers unreliable. Some examples of protein biomarkers used in cancer detection are CA-125 for ovarian cancer and PSA for prostate cancer. Protein signatures may be more reliable than biomarkers to detect cancer cells. Proteomics is also being used to develop individualized treatment plans, which involves the prediction of whether or not an individual will respond to specific drugs and the side effects that the individual may experience. Proteomics is also being used to predict the possibility of disease recurrence. The National Cancer Institute has developed programs to improve the detection and treatment of cancer. The Clinical Proteomic Technologies for Cancer and the Early Detection Research Network are efforts to identify protein signatures specific to different types of cancers. The Biomedical Proteomics Program is designed to identify protein signatures and design effective therapies for cancer patients. Q: What do we call an incorrect test result that should have been positive? Choices: - external positive - false positive - personal negative - false negative A:
false negative

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: What component of a prokaryote is unique in molecular composition and mechanism of propulsion? Choices: - the sporangia - the membrane - the amoeba - the flagella A:
(Answer)
the flagella
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Polyisoprene is a polymer of isoprene and is better known as rubber. It is produced naturally by rubber trees, but several variants have been developed which demonstrate improvements on the properties of natural rubber. Q: What is polyisoprene better known as? Choices: - rayon - styrofoam - silicon - rubber A:
Ans: rubber
(Q).
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Most modern plants, like the skunk cabbage, produce flowers. However, flowers evolved relatively late in the history of plants. The earliest plants not only lacked flowers. They also lacked leaves, roots, and stems. They probably resembled the alga in Figure below . Q: The earliest types of what lacked flowers, leaves, roots and stems? Choices: - animals - clouds - houses - plants A:
(A).
plants
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: The locations where electrons are likely to be located around the nucleus are known as orbitals. Each orbital represents a three-dimensional region in which a given electron is most likely to be found. Q: What do we call the locations where electrons are likely to be located around the nucleus? Choices: - isotopes - cores - radials - orbitals A:

Ans:orbitals
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Proteins are nutrients made up of smaller molecules called amino acids. The digestive system breaks down proteins in food to amino acids, which are used for protein synthesis. Proteins synthesized from the amino acids in food serve many vital functions. They make up muscles, control body processes, fight infections, and carry substances in the blood. Q: What is the name of the smaller molecules that make up proteins? Choices: - fundamental acids - DNA acids - rna acids - amino acids A:
amino acids
