They allow the heart to pump more blood by decreasing the ESV.
Answer:
This question is incomplete, the options are:
A) Decreased temperature
B) Strong southerly winds
C) Presence of a predator
D) Lack of water
The answer is C
Explanation:
A stimulus is something that provokes a response or reaction in a living organism. It can either be internal or external. An animal can respond to stimulus such as hunger, heat, predator etc.
However, among all the listed stimuli in the options, the PRESENCE OF A PREDATOR is most likely to result in a more rapid heartbeat in an animal. This is because the predator stimulus will require the animal to respond by running in order to survive. Running will increase its metabolic activity and cause its heartbeat to increase.
Answer:
Active transport of calcium into the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Explanation:
- The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is a membrane-bound structure found within muscle cells that is similar to the endoplasmic reticulum in other cells. The main function of the SR is to store calcium ions (Ca2+)
- In response to an action potential traveling along the t tubule, voltage-sensitive proteins change shape, opening calcium channels in the adjacent terminal cisterns of the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Answer:
b. False
Explanation:
All living organisms such as plants and animals require energy to function properly (life activities). Thus, the organelle where energy from nutrients is released is generally referred to as mitochondria. Animals retrieve energy using mitochondria to do cellular respiration because they typically act like a digestive system by taking in nutrients, breaking them down and obtaining energy rich molecules for cell-life activities.
Cellular respiration can be defined as a series of metabolic reactions that typically occur in cells so as to produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). During cellular respiration, high energy intermediates are created that can then be oxidized to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP). These intermediary products are produced at the glycolysis and citric acid cycle stage.
Basically, mitochondria is one of the cell organelles found in all living organisms and it is known as the powerhouse. Therefore, mitochondria provides all the energy required in the cell by transforming energy forms through series of chemical reactions; breaking down of glucose into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) used for providing energy for cellular activities in the body of living organisms.
Hence, during respiration, most ATP is formed as a direct result of the net movement of protons down a concentration gradient but not potassium against a concentration gradient potassium.
Answer;
DNA replication is semi-conservative.
The meselson-stahl experiment supported the hypothesis that DNA replication is semi-conservative.
Explanation;
The Meselson-Stahl experiment was an experiment by Meselson and Stahl that proved that the semi-conservative model by Watson and Crick was correct.
DNA replication is semi-conservative in the sense that the new helices formed after replication contain, one new DNA strand and one old strand from the parent DNA molecule.
