Summary Introduction
To analyze:
Consequences of using fossil fuels as an energy source.
Introduction:
Fossil fuels are the carbon rich material which form over the million years when deposited plants and animal remains beneath layer of sediments exposed to extreme heat and pressure.
Fossil fuels are non-renewable energy source, which can be extracted from the different layers of sediments.

Molecular Biology Question
You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?
