All right -- what is the best conclusion from the data collected from Experiments 1-3?
- 00:30
And here are the potential answers...

What's it asking?

Experiments 1 and 2 show that most proteins have a higher amount of aggregation in older
- 00:45
animals, hence the increase in fold effect, as shown by the graphs.
- 00:49
Experiment 3 looks at four specific proteins and comes to the same conclusion.
- 00:53
The first graph in figure 2 shows a large difference between young and aged worm insoluble

protein aggregation. Mmm, doesn't that sound delicious? That's McDo—uh, never mind.
- 01:03
...which shows that fem worms...these things...have a large amount of aggregation as they get older.
- 01:08
However, the second graph in figure 2 shows that the amount of aggregation is less in
- 01:12
aged gon-2 animals...
- 01:15
...the special mutant worms that live extremely long lives. Wish we could clone those...
- 01:20
* Therefore the correct answer is B -- all animals show an increase in protein aggregation
- 01:23
when they age, but the long-living gon-2 animals do not have as much aggregation overall.

Oh, well, guys. You tried.
