Surgeons use succinylcholine, which is an acetylcholine analog, as a muscle relaxant. care must be taken because some individual

s recover abnormally slowly from this paralysis, with life-threatening consequences. such individuals are deficient in an enzyme called pseudocholinesterase, which is normally present in the blood, where it slowly inactivates succinylcholine by hydrolysis to succinate and choline. if succinylcholine is an analog of acetylcholine, why do you think it causes muscles to relax and not contract as acetylcholine does

Which of the following would be a good adaptation for an organism that lives in the intertidal zone?
barxatty [35]

The right answer is A.

The foreshore, also called intertidal zone, is the tidal zone of the tides on the coast. The alternation of the tides which discover more or less the substrate according to the phases of the Moon determines the conditions of humidity, salinity and temperature of the foreshore.

These variations lead to a vertical ecological structuring of the foreshore in so-called supralittoral, mediolittoral and infralittoral stages. The floristic and faunistic stands of these stages are distinct, according to the requirements of organisms in water, salinity and temperature. Therefore it would be beneficial for organisms living in this period that it can live without depending on the water present in their environment since the presence of the latter is inconstant.

The foreshore is divided into several floors that correspond to different ecological conditions. These coastal stages are defined by the duration of their emergence and therefore by the level of the different tides.

What type of reaction do cells use to combine smaller monomers into larger functional polymers?
mr_godi [17]
The reaction that links monomers to make polymers is polymerization. This process is also referred to as dehydration synthesis.  Two monomers are binding to each other and form one polymer. Example: hydrogen (H) from one monomer binds with a hydroxyl group (OH) from the other monomer and forms the polymer : H+<span> + OH</span>-<span> = H</span>2O - the <span>water molecule. </span>
