The history of life has been punctuated by several mass extinctions. for example, the impact of a meteorite may have wiped out most of the dinosaurs and many forms of marine life at the end of the cretaceous period (see chapter 23). fossils indicate that plants were less severely affected by this mass extinction. what adaptations may have enabled plants to withstand this disaster better than animals?

Which of the following statements regarding anfinsen's denaturing experiments with ribonuclease a (rnase a) are valid? exposing the denatured protein to air oxidation and then dialysis to remove urea restored the protein to its original functionality. removing urea by dialysis and then allowing air oxidation of the denatured protein restored the protein to its original functionality. denaturing the protein with both urea and β-mercaptoethanol yielded an inactive protein. anfinsen concluded that protein folding is determined by its primary sequence.
