Maybe D but at the same time it could be A
Answer:
1. Inhibiting IP3 channels, leading to decreased Ca2 in the sarcoplasm and reduced contraction.
2. Increasing the relative activity of MLCP, leading to a decrease in tension.
3. Activating K channels, increasing K leaking out of the cell which hyperpolarizes it and decreases the likelihood of Ca2 entry.
Explanation
In smooth muscle, cyclic AMP (cAMP) mediates relaxation because cAMP inhibits a specific kinase required for myosin light chain protein (MLCP) phosphorylation, thereby triggering contraction in the smooth muscles. It has been shown that cAMP inhibits 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-dependent calcium ions (Ca 2+) release by activation of the cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG). PKG proteins act to modulate Ca2+ oscillations by stimulating sarcoplasmic Ca2+-ATPase membrane proteins, increasing Ca2+ in the sarcoplasmic reticulum stores and Ca2+ efflux from the cells, and activate voltage-gated potassium (K) channels, thereby leading to membrane hyperpolarization and reducing Ca2+ entry through Ca2+ channels.
Answer:
Cell theory meets the definition of a scientific theory because it can be proven, it has been tested for a long period of time and therefore there are many evidences that support the theory but not enough to become a law. Well scientific laws are statements based on repeated experiments or observation, but also, a law is something that always applies under the same conditions. Evolution occurs in the characteristics of living things within a species overtime. . A theory is much more complex: it explains why something happens. A law only describes what happens.
The cell theory meets the definition of a scientific theory but i do not think it should be a scientific law.
Explanation:
<u><em>Female:</em></u>
*Ovaries - release of oocytes (eggs), estrogen and progesterone.
*Oviducts (fallopian tubes) - where fertilization of the oocyte occurs to form a zygote.
*Uterus - where the zygote develops
*Cervix and vagina - allow for the entry of sperm for fertilization
<u><em>Male:</em></u>
*Testes - Releases testosterone and sperm
*Vas deferens - Passageway for sperm
*Epididymis - allows the sperm to pass from the testes and vas deferens and equips them with semen so they can survive internal fertilization
*Penis - releases sperm into the external environment for fertilization to occur
