The two proteins directly involved in muscle contraction are MYOSIN AND ACTIN. The interaction between these proteins is responsible for muscle contraction.

The sarcomere is the basic unit of muscle cells (myofibrils) that mediate muscle contraction both in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue.

During muscle contraction, myosin and actin proteins slide past each other, thereby leading to sarcomere shortening.

The myosin protein binds to actin filaments and thus myosin acts as a motor protein that drives filament sliding.

Answer:

Succession

Explanation:

<u>The biologists were attempting to imitate succession.</u>

Succession refers to a gradual change to the structure and species composition of a community over a period of time.

A newly colonized environment such as a bare rock forms a community is said to be in primary succession. Thereafter, the structure and composition of the community keep changing until a relatively stable community, otherwise known as climax community, is established.

Secondary succession happens when a disturbed community tries to regain its original dynamics in terms of species composition and structure. A climax community is often less diverse than a community that is still in active succession.

<em>Hence, the biologists were attempting to imitate succession by burning/disturning a relatively stable, less diverse climax community of grassland in order to realize a more diverse community that will undergo secondary succession. </em>

lianna [129]

Answer:

The neurons are unable to repolarize.

Explanation:

The cell membrane potential remain negative at the resting membrane potential. The potassium channels maintains the negative voltage inside the cell and makes the cell stable at resting membrane potential.

The scorpion agitoxin affects the potassium channels, the depolarize cell remains in the depolarize state because potassium channels are inhibited. The cells are unable to repolarize as the potassium channels are unable to enter in the cells.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

I believe the correct answer is "How can DNA be used to identify criminals?".

Explanation:

The question asks to pick the question that is least likely to lead to a scientific investigation based on these findings. The question states that the HGP identified sequences of base pairs in human DNA as well as many genes. The other questions were very likely to have arisen bases off of these findings. Criminal identification based on DNA is not the focus of the Human Genome Project.
