3) In the 1990’s Florida Fish and Game wanted to control a population of lamprey that had been introduced into Lake Okeechobee b

y placing a nerve inhibitor into the lake that would ultimately kill lamprey. Because ray-finned fish don’t have this receptor they would not be effected. This proposal was meet with resistance by local environmental groups because the effects had not been studied on lancelets. Being a concerned citizen, take a position and support or reject the proposal and support your position.

Answer:

There needs to be further studies

Explanation:

To Whom it may concern:

I have been advised that the Florida Fish and Game board is intending to control the lamprey population by using a nerve inhibitor. While I applaud your efforts, I am deeply concerned that this will have unknown effects on the other fish such as the lancets that live in the water. I am doubly concerned that it may have an effect on water quality, the plants that are dependent on the water and the people in the surrounding areas that depend on this water source for survival.

Please furnish any data you have on the previous concerns that I have delineated above and allow the citizens to have a meeting to discuss the changes that you intend to make.

Signed

Conserned citizens of Florida

Which characteristic makes osmosis different from diffusion?
nalin [4]

A) Net movement in osmosis is from areas of higher water concentration to areas of lower water concentration. Net movement in diffusion occurs from areas of higher solute concentration to areas of lower solute concentration.

This happens so that both solution have roughly the same concentration

Using the sliding flament theory, explain (or draw) the process of sarcomere shortening. Start from the point where calcium woul
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

  1. Calcium binds to troponin C
  2. Troponin T moves tropomyosin and unblocks the binding sites
  3. Myosin heads join to the actin forming cross-bridges
  4. ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate and releases energy
  5. The energy is used to impulse myofilaments slide producing a power stroke
  6. ADP is released and a new ATP joins the myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament
  7. ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, starting a new cycle
  8. Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.

Explanation:  

In rest, the tropomyosin inhibits the attraction strengths between myosin and actin filaments. Contraction initiates when an action potential depolarizes the inner portion of the muscle fiber. Calcium channels activate in the T tubules membrane, releasing <u>calcium into the sarcolemma.</u> At this point, tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament. When calcium binds to troponin C, troponin T alters the tropomyosin position by moving it and unblocking the binding sites. Myosin heads join to the uncovered actin-binding points forming cross-bridges, and while doing so, ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate, which is released. Myofilaments slide impulsed by chemical energy collected in myosin heads, producing a power stroke. The power stroke initiates when the myosin cross-bridge binds to actin. As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP links to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament.  Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, which starts a new binding cycle to actin. Finally, Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.

A single stranded nucleic acid that plays a role in protein synthesis. there are three different types.
Taya2010 [7]
<span>A single stranded nucleic acid that plays a role in protein synthesis is known as the messenger RNA or mRNA (messenger Ribonucleic Acid). The other two types of nuclei acids are transfer RNA or tRNA and ribosomal rNA or rRNA. These nucleic acids are involved in cellular division in cells, during which transcription and translation occurs.</span>
