Answer:
nuclear processes only - not chemical
Explanation:
Answer:
<u>Transient killer whales prey on marine mammals, while resident killer whales prey on Chinook salmon</u>
Explanation:
Remember, the term "ecotypes" is used to refer specifically to the observable differences found in the various kinds of whales, which includes <em>their breeding populations, their language of communication, social structure, the type of food they eat, and their hunting behavior.</em>
Thus, in the case of transient and resident killer whales in the Northeast Pacific, they are thought to represent different ecotypes rather than different species the Transient killer whales prey (feed) on marine mammals, while resident killer whales prey on Chinook salmon. Also, whales are generally thought to belong to the same species.
Genotype of the Q gene is homozygous dominant
An anatomist studies the parts of the body by looking at the physical components of the that body part and identifying its functions. A physiologist looks at the mechanism at how a body part functions. The components of the eye according to an anatomist would be based on the different physical components of the eye while to a physiologist, the components would be based on the functions.
Striated muscles contain repeating sarcomeres of overlapping arrays of long, thin actin and thicker myosin filaments. Myosin filaments contains the myosin heads, which are enzymes that can bind to actin, split and make use of the energy from ATP. When muscle contraction starts, myosin heads bind to actin, change their configuration on actin, liberating the products of ATP hydrolysis and causing slide of the actin and myosin filaments. The action of the proteins troponin and tropomyosin on the actin filaments regulates vertebrae striated muscle contraction. The release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum is triggered by the nervous stimulation which causes depolarization of muscle membrane. Calcium ions bind to troponin and thus cause or allow the tropomyosin strands on the actin filament to move so that the part of the actin surface where myosin heads need to bind is uncovered. Contraction then occurs and only stops when the sarcoplasmic reticulum pumps calcium out of the muscle interior.
So basically, what triggers the uncovering of the myosin binding site on actin is the calcium ions binding to troponin and changing configuration.
