This statement is (T/F). • If true, enter x in the blanks below. • If false, then how would you change the sentence to make it correct? You can change two words at most. Changes that just reverse the meaning (e.g. changing "is" to "isn't" or "all" to "none") will not earn credit. I would change the word(s) to the word(s) to make the sentence correct. *"structural proteins" are proteins that give shape or form to cells (e.g. parts of the cytoskeleton, cell junctions, etc.)arrow_forwardWhy are the similarities among organisms during early development evidence for evolution?
