James is making models of plant and animal cells using objects supplied by his teacher to represent organelles. For one cell, he

will place the objects in a shoebox. First he fills a balloon with water and places it in the shoe box. He also drops a handful of marbles into the box. Which statement most likely describes the structures he has represented so far?
A. He is making an animal cell. The box is the cell membrane, and the balloon represents the large vacuole. The marbles are the endoplasmic reticulum.
B. He is making a plant cell. The box is the cell wall, and the balloon represents the large vacuole. The marbles are the tiny ribosomes.
C. He is making a plant cell. The box is the cell wall, and the balloon represents the nucleus. The marbles are the centrioles.
D. He could be making either a plant or animal cell. The box is the cell wall, and the balloon represents the large vacuole. The marbles are the centrioles.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.  

Explanation:

The plant cell is a eukaryotic cell that has a cell wall outside of its cell membrane that distinguishes it from the animal cell. It has many cell organelle one of them is large vacuole that plays a role in storage for food whereas in animal cell vacuoles are small in size but has a similar role. The ribosomes are scattered in the cell in a plant cell.

So, James represented the plant cell where the box is cell wall, the balloon is vacuole and marbles are the centrioles.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

<span>Bacteria keep their shape by having a rigid cell wall, but they can be shaped and appear differently. There are three main shapes of bacteria: 1.) The Coccus bacteria is in a sphere shape. 2.) Spirillum bacteria is in a spiral shape. 3.) The Bacillus bacteria comes in a rod shape. Each of these bacteria can come in pairs, clusters or chains.</span>

Place these events in the correct order of occurrence in the muscle contraction: End plate potential triggers an action potentia
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

1. Acetylcholine binds to receptors on the motor end plate

2. Ligand-gated channels open leading to depolarization

3. End plate potential triggers an action potential  

4. Transverse tubules convey action potentials into the interior of the muscle fiber

5. Calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum

6. Calcium ions bind to troponin, which then moves tropomyosin

Explanation:

Acetylcholine (ACh) is a signaling molecule (neurotransmitter) that binds to receptors on muscle cells. This binding triggers the opening of ligand-gated sodium channels, thereby ions enter into muscle cells, which causes the depolarization of the sarcolemma and thus promotes the release of Ca2+ ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The myoneural junction, also known as the motor endplate, is the site of synaptic contact between a motor axon and a skeletal muscle fiber. The endplate potential is the voltage that produces the depolarization of muscle fibers when ACh molecules bind to their receptors in the cell membrane. This depolarization spreads in the sarcolemma through transverse tubules (T tubules​) and thus generates an action potential. Finally, this action potential induces the release of Ca2+ in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, which activates troponin protein and induces muscle contraction.
