There are five characteristics of Muscles; namely Responsiveness, Conductivity, Contractibility, Extensibility and elasticity. 
Assigning each example to the universal muscle characteristic being described;
Conductivity; (electrically stimulating a muscle) Local electrical change triggers a wave of excitation that travels along the muscle fiber.
Contractibility; Shortens when stimulated
Elasticity; Returns to its original resting length after being stretched,
Extensibility; capable of being stretched between contractions.
Responsiveness; to chemical signals, stretch, and electrical changes across the plasma membrane.

Describe how having dark skin may have provided an advantage in survival and reproduction to people thousands of years ago in so
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Recent studies have shown that dark skin colour was developed in the past for protection against cancer. Scientists claim that in the past natural selection favoured humans having dark colour as compared to humans having a fair colour. This is because humans having a darker colour produced more melanin which protected them from ultraviolet radiation. As a result, this skin colour protected more against skin cancer. Hence, Having a darker skin colour protected in survival and reproduction to people thousands of years ago.

An experiment is designed to study the mechanism of sucrose uptake by plant cells. Cells are immersed in a sucrose solution, and
wolverine [178]

Answer:

A proton Pump, using ATP, pumps protons outside

A steady proton gradient with a higher concentration of H+ out of the cell is maintained by the proton pump.

pH decreases;

The gradient becomes sufficient.

H+ moves down electrochemical gradient into the cell; Sucrose moves into the cell.

Explanation:

A proton Pump, using the energy of ATP hydrolysis, pumps protons outside the cell.

A steady proton gradient with a higher concentration of H+ out of the cell is maintained by the proton pump.

The continues outward pumping of protons by the proton pump causes the pH of the extracellular fluid to decrease

At some point the gradient becomes sufficient, and pH reaches a steady slightly acidic level.

H+ moves down its electrochemical gradient into the cell together with Sucrose through the hydrogen ion-sucrose co-transporter.
