Answer part a 

(Theme 5) Below are data from Jimenez et al (2022) depicting cellular
expression patterns of the tumor suppressor transcription factor p53 (a
gene commonly mutated in cancers). They explored oscillating expression
patterns found in a mutated human cell line. Panel D shows measurements
of changes in p53 mRNA levels measured using two different approaches;
figure E shows measurements of protein levels from the same samples. The
numbers on either side indicate the observed fold change (FC) in relative
abundance of these molecules (note that any difference in values obtained
between the two methods are not relevant for this question).
