Read these sentences from the text. After Eris was discovered, scientists had to make a decision. Either Eris was the 10th planet in the solar system or it was not a planet at all! And if Eris weren’t a planet, could Pluto be considered one?

Scientists made new rules for what is counted as a planet, and decided that neither Pluto nor Eris qualified.

Based on this information, what did the discovery of Eris make scientists do?

a
The discovery of Eris made scientists rethink the rules for what is counted as a star.
b
The discovery of Eris made scientists rethink the rules for what is counted as a dwarf planet.
c
The discovery of Eris made scientists rethink the rules for what is counted as a planet.
d
The discovery of Eris made scientists add more planets to the group of planets.

The dna in a cell’s nucleus encodes proteins that are eventually targeted to every membrane and compartment in the cell, as well as proteins that are targeted for secretion from the cell. for example, consider these two proteins: phosphofructokinase (pfk) is an enzyme that functions in the cytoplasm during glycolysis. insulin, a protein that regulates blood sugar levels, is secreted from specialized pancreatic cells. assume that you can track the cellular locations of these two proteins from the time that translation is complete until the proteins reach their final destinations.for each protein, identify its targeting pathway: the sequence of cellular locations in which the protein is found from when translation is complete until it reaches its final (functional) destination. (note that if an organelle is listed in a pathway, the location implied is inside the organelle, not in the membrane that surrounds the organelle.)

The double bond between a carbon atom and two oxygen atoms (a molecule of carbon dioxide) has two characteristics. what are they? a.an ionic bond is formed between the oxygen and carbon atoms. b.four valence electrons are shared. c.two valence electrons are shared. d.valence electrons are shared between oxygen atoms.
