d. the secondary structure, tertiary structure, and initial shape

e. the primary structure, tertiary structure, and final shape

You need to figure out at which x-value does the graph has a tangent line slope of -1.remember, the derivative is the slope of the tangent line. so find the derivative function and set it to equal -1 to find the x-value that will have a tangent line slope of 0.differentiate with the chain rule.    set the derivative to equal -1 and solve for x.      take log base 10 of both sides. also recall that  .    so the x-coord of the point of tangency is .the y-coordinate of this point of tangency can be calculated using the original function:     using point-slope form, the equation of the tangent line is      the x-intercept of this tangent line is when the graph is at y=0.    this rounds off to  .choice c.

After spending all that time on the research then by all means modify the hypothesis or aim by reporting such. for example the findings did not bring forth what was expected but brought about different yet interesting findings worth exploring so the hypothesis is changed to reflect this new findings.

i may be way off but.
