Answer:

The correct answer is: Eccentric phase.

When talking about movement, we are talking about the activation of muscle fibers in order for this process to happen. In order for this to happen, motor neurons must activate the phases of muscle excitation, contraction and relaxation, so that the sarcomeres, and thus the fibers, can generate movement.

In essence, there are three stages, or phases, to complete muscle movement:   the concentric phase, which is when the muscle fibers are excited and begin the process of contraction. This means the muscle fibers will contract and generate movement, generating a shortening. Then we have the isometric stage, a moment in which there is no longer any more shortening of the muscle fibers, so basically, the movement is held and there is no further contraction, but neither is there relaxation of the muscle fibers. Finally, we have the eccentric phase. This phase is characterized precisely because it is the moment when the muscles begin to return to their resting position.

zloy xaker [14]

D)Heat within Earth

Explanation:

The heat from within the earth is as a result of plate tectonics. Plates on the earth are driven by heat within the earth through convection currents.

  • Plate tectonics suggests that the earth are broken into slabs that moves on the weak and ductile material called asthenosphere.
  • Heat from within the earth causes the melting of asthenosphere.
  • The riding lithosphere which is cold will sink into the asthenoshpere.
  • Hot mantle materials will move to the surface thereby setting up a convection current.
  • Heat from within the earth rises to the surface due to plate movement.

Explain why the formation of abscission layer causes sugar to accumulate in leaves.
kramer
Abscission layer is the layer of cutinized parenchyma cells that develops in the abscission zone. The abscission zone form across the base of the plant part, where the break eventually occurs. During the photosyntesis chlorophyll using sunlight produces sugar and storches which are used as food by plant. And sugar accumulate in leaves.
