Option (A) Torpor is the correct answer
Organisms that undergo hibernation have the ability to slow down their metabolism so as to lower the core temperature. This process is known as Torpor.
<h3>Why is torpor important for organisms undergoing hibernation?</h3>
Torpor is a state in animals where they lower all their metabolic activities and bodily functions so as to keep the body temperature low.
It is done by the animals to conserve resources in conditions where scarcity of food is there.
Some birds undergo torpor to conserve fat in the body.
Some animals use this technique of torpor to survive competition with other species.
These organisms come back to normal physiology when the conditions become favorable.

So, you would make a punnet square. You would put the capital S and lowercase s on the top of it and then the capital Y and lowercase y on the side. Then you should have SY, sY, Sy, and sy as your outcomes.
There are so many examples for that in different areas, like biology experiment carried out in our lab recently.

Answer:
The correct answer is 3: "<em>High levels of Ca2+ are expected to be found </em><em>within the sarcoplasmic reticulum</em>".
Explanation:
Muscular contraction is a highly regulated process that depends on free calcium concentration in the cytoplasm. Amounts of cytoplasmic calcium are regulated by <u>sarcoplasmic reticulum</u> that functions as a storage of the ion.
When a nerve impulse reaches the membrane of a muscle fiber, through acetylcholine release, the membrane depolarizes producing the entrance of calcium from <u>extracellular space</u>. The impulse is transmitted along the membrane to the sarcoplasmic reticulum, from where calcium is released. At this point, <em>tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament</em>. The calcium channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum controls the ion release, that activates and regulates muscle contraction, by increasing its cytoplasmic levels. When <em>calcium binds to the troponin C</em>, <em>the troponin T alters the tropomyosin by moving it and then unblocks the binding sites,</em> making possible the formation of <em>cross-bridges between actin and myosin filaments.</em> When myosin binds to the uncovered actin-binding sites, ATP is transformed into ADP and inorganic phosphate.
Z-bands are then pulled toward each other, thus shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, and producing muscle fiber contraction.
