A disease deactivates the acetylcholine receptors at myoneural junctions. Would this prevent muscle contraction or muscle relaxa

tion, and why?
Relaxation, by preventing synaptic vesicles from releasing their contents
Contraction, by preventing synaptic vesicles from releasing their contents
Relaxation, by preventing an action potential from traveling across the sarcolemma
Contraction, by preventing an action potential from traveling across the sarcolemma

I think the correct answer is D. contraction, by preventing an action potential from traveling across the sarcolemma. Acetycholine lreceptors are found on the surface of muscle cells, concentrated in the synapse between nerve cells and muscle cells. When the nerve impulses reaches the axon terminals, a chemical called the neurotransmitter is released, in this case the acetylcholine that stimulates skeletal muscle cell. Therefore a disease that inactivates the acetylcholine will prevent the activation of the muscle.

Which two endocrine glands are made of a mixture of nervous and epithelial tissues?
Fittoniya [83]
Hypothalamus and pituitary glands are two endocrine glands that are made of a mixture of nervous and epithelial tissues. The endocrine system is made up with a series of glands located around the body. These glands includes the pituitary gland, thyroid glands, parathyroid glands, thymus, pancreas adrenal glands among others. Each of the glands produces hormones, which have a specific function in the body.

The amount of energy at trophic levels one and four in an ecosystem is indicated by the numbers.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

1100

Explanation:

There is 10% of total energy in each increasing trophic level.                    10,000 / 10 = 1,000 ,so there are 1,000 units of energy in trophic level 2.

1,000 / 10 = 100, so there are 100 units of energy in trophic level 3.

1,000 + 100 units of combined energy would be 1,100 units of energy.

Hope this helps!

Under certain circumstances, potassium ions ( K + ) in a cell will move across the cell membrane from the inside to the outside.
dexar [7]

Answer:

8.18 × 10 ⁻²¹.

Explanation:

The potential energy may be defined as the energy stored in the rest objects. This energy is important for the maintenance of the concentration gradient in the cell.

The change in the potential energy can be calculated as follows:

W = v2-v1 × q.

Here, the charge of the proton is considered because k+ ions has been used.

W= 0 - ( - 70. 5 mV) × 1.602 * 10^-19 C.

W= 8.18 × 10 ⁻²¹J.

Thus, the answer is 8.18 × 10 ⁻²¹.
