Biology
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
8 0
The ozone layer is a stratospheric region composed of Ozone (Triatomic Oxygen) 

CFC´s (Chlorofluorcarbons) are broken down by ultraviolet radioation to release chloride ions wich react with ozone breaking it down into oxygen.

One chlorine atom can destroy 100.000 ozone molecules - smallamounts of CFC can break down large amounts of ozone.

The thinning of the ozone layer by CFCs reduces the absorption of UV light in the stratosphere

Which of the following chemicals opens us binding sites allowing muscle filaments to connect to each other? Select one:
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D.

Explanation:

Calcium plays an important role in muscle contraction as they are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum after they receive electric impulse.

Calcium triggers the muscle contraction cycle as these calcium ions bind to the troponin-tropomyosin complex. This binding exposes the myosin-binding site on the actin on which high energy myosin binds and cross-bridge is formed.

This cross-bridge formation causes the contraction of the sarcomere and therefore muscle contracts.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The forces on a thrown ball after it leaves the thrower's hand are the force of gravity and possibly the force of air resistance.

Explanation:

The force of gravity at the surface of the Earth is the gravitational acceleration at that location (9.8 meters per second per second) times the mass of the ball.

ALL animals make use of other animals and organisms for food. They are heterotrophic so they have to get energy elsewhere.

ALL animals are capable of motion at some stage of their lives.

Animals developed specialized cells and tissues that are advanced and complex.

And because all animals eat I would assume they all digest the food they ingest. Other than parasites who don't really digest their food.
