And here are the potential answers:
- 00:46
This question is asking us to compare fem 1 worms and gon 2 worms.

Our answer choices give us information about age-dependent protein aggregation, and Figure
- 00:57
1 shows us the fold change in protein aggregation between fem 1 and gon 2 worms.
- 01:03
So we know we should be looking at Figure 1 for our answer.
- 01:09
We notice that the fem -1 graph on the left has more data points associated with high
- 01:14
fold change than the gon -2 graph. This shows that on average, the amount of protein aggregation,
- 01:20
or fold change, is higher in fem -1 worms than it is in gon -2 worms.
- 01:30
So to answer the given question, gon-2 worms have LESS age-dependent protein aggregation.
- 01:35
Choice C is our answer!
