Following statements are regarding to the regulation of body temperature.
A. The temperature-regulating center is located in the anterior hypothalamus. This center receives information about environmental temperature from thermoreceptors in the skin and about core temperature from thermoreceptors in the anterior hypothalamus itself.
B. The temperature-regulating center is located in the posterior hypothalamus. This center receives information about environmental temperature from thermoreceptors in the posterior hypothalamus itself and about core temperature from thermoreceptors in the skin.
C. If core temperature is below the set-point temperature, then heat-generating and heat-retaining mechanisms are activated.
D. If core temperature is above the set-point temperature, then heat-dissipating mechanisms are activated.
E. If core temperature is below the set-point temperature, then heat-dissipating mechanisms are activated.
F. If core temperature is above the set-point temperature, then heat-generating and heat-retaining mechanisms are activated.
Which of the following combination is correct?

When stress conditions arise, or when protein synthesis threatens to overwhelm the protein-folding capacity of the ER, unfolded proteins can accumulate. These conditions trigger the unfolded protein response (UPR)

a) unfolded protein response ensures to reduces the rate of protein synthesis by mTOR pathway

b) Amyloid aggregates that form before the UPR can come into play may be removed. Some are degraded by autophagy

c) Amyloid aggregates that can be removed by other mechanism such as lysosomal degradations

d)  UPR also bring the various systems into alignment by increasing the concentration of chaperones in the oxygen deprived conditions

Which of the following statements would be incorrect?
