What kinds of problems would a person be expected to have if his body had no Schwann cells?

Biology

6 0

<u>Answer:</u>

Schwann cell is found in the central nervous system and it is named after the German scientist who discovered it. Schwann cells are initiated during any nervous injury and helps in the regeneration of the dead cell.  The DNA protein in the Schwann cell helps to revert the damaged cells back to their original form.

When an Axon gets distorted in the peripheral nervous system the myelin sheath is provided from the Schwann cells. Hence the absence of these cells will not induce the formation of new cell by resulting in deformed or immature repair.

White raven [17]

Answer:

When a muscle cell contracts, the myosin heads each produce a single power stroke.

Explanation:

In rest, attraction strengths between myosin and actin filaments are inhibited by the tropomyosin. When the muscle fiber membrane depolarizes, the action potential caused by this depolarization enters the t-tubules depolarizing the inner portion of the muscle fiber. This activates calcium channels in the T tubules membrane and releases calcium into the sarcolemma. At this point, <em>tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament</em>. When calcium binds to the troponin C, the troponin T alters the tropomyosin by moving it and then unblocks the binding sites. Myosin heads bind to the uncovered actin-binding sites forming cross-bridges, and while doing it ATP is transformed into ADP and inorganic phosphate which is liberated. Myofilaments slide impulsed by chemical energy collected in myosin heads, <u>producing a power stroke</u>. 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.  Z-bands are then pulled toward each other, thus shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, and producing muscle fiber contraction.

Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate, ATP hydrolyzed to ADP and Phosphate and the Myos
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate

Explanation:

Muscle contraction results from myosin heads adhering to actin and attracting it inwards. It uses ATP. Myosin adhers to actin at a binding site of its globular actin protein and adheres at another binding site for ATP (hydrolyzed ATP to ADP, Pi  and energy)

ATP binding prompts myosin to detach from actin, ATP is changed to ADP and inorganic phosphate, Pi by ATPase. The energy formed at this process orientates myosin head to a “cocked” direction.

The myosin head goes in the direction of the M line, holding the actin with it in the process causing the filaments to orientate nearly 10 nm in the direction of the M line--- power stroke (force is produced), the sarcomere reduces in length and the muscle contracts.

Note: The power stroke is seen when ADP and phosphate disattaches itself from the myosin head.

At the terminal point of the power stroke, the myosin head as low-energy, followed by ADP release.

The attached image shows the cross-bridge muscle contraction cycle, which is activated  by Ca2+ sticking to the actin active site. And how actin moves in relation to myosin.
