Here's your shmoop du jour, brought to you by...well, nothing.

00:21

Assume that there were 10 aggregated sonic proteins in young fem-1(-) worms, and 50 in

00:27

old fem-1(-) worms. What would the fold effect be?

00:34

And here are the potential answers...

00:38

Alright, this doesn't even requires us to look at any graphs..

00:42

It's a straightforward question.

00:45

If there are 10 aggregated proteins in the young worms,

00:48

and 50 in the old worms..

00:50

we have a multiple of 5 times as many aggregate proteins in the old animals.

00:55

In worm speak...

00:58

...the fold effect would be 5 fold. Answer's B.
