geniusboy [140]
Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1. Muscle Fibers

2. Bones

3. Joints

Explanation:

Muscle tissue is made of muscle fibers. The plasma membrane of a muscle fiber is called sarcolemma while its cytoplasm is known as sarcoplasm. Muscle cells are characterized by the presence of specialized endoplasmic reticulum which is called sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Muscle cells exhibit contractility and extensibility. The ability of muscle cells to shorten their length forcibly in response to a stimulus is their contractility. Muscle fibers have the ability to extend and shorten themselves.

Extension and contraction of muscle fibers are responsible for the movement of the human body and its parts.

Muscles are attached to bones via tendons which in turn are the fibrous connective tissues. Muscles are also part of our joints where they assist in the movement by pulling the bones as well as stabilize and strengthen the joints.

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

large mammals such as gorillas

Explanation:

The survivorship curves refer to the graphical representation of the proportion of the fraction of survivors or the individuals at a given age.

There are three types of survivorship curves which can be constructed by studying the life history of the organisms.

The type I survivorship curve is the curve which can be formed with the organism which has a high survival rate at the younger and middle age and high death rate at the older age. The type I curve can be characterised by its convex shaped. The type I is showed by the large mammals like gorilla, humans and many others.

Thus, large mammals such as gorillas are the correct answer.
