In cardiac muscle
a. an action potential spreads throughout the Z discs.
b. intercalated discs connect the muscle fibers together.
c. calcium enters the cell from storage chambers called intercalated discs.
d. potassium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Answer:
b. intercalated discs connect the muscle fibers together.
Explanation:
Intercalated discs are components of the muscles found in the heart(cardiac muscles).
Intercalated discs join the cardiomyoctes (muscle cells or fibers) together so that they can function as one and transmit signals amongst themselves during the contraction of the heart.
Intercalated discs are made of up desmosomes and gap junctions.
Intercalated discs are found on the lining of the sacromere and can only be seen by using a microscope to observe the longitudinal section of the heart tissue.
1. The correct answer is: a. There are more mRNA bases than amino acids.
The transcription of monocistronic mRNA in prokaryotes is a rare process (it is more characteristic for the eukaryotes). Monocistronic mRNA is RNA, which encodes for only one or specific protein. Three bases of mRNA encode one amino acid of protein, thus it has more bases than amino acids of the final product, protein.
2. The correct statements are:
The mRNA contains 5' and 3' untranslated regions.
The stop codon does not code for an amino acid.
The start site of transcription is upstream of the start codon.
Each codon contains 3 RNA bases.
All of these approve that more bases are in mRNA since not all of them are translated into amin oacids.
Other statements are hallmarks of eukaryotic RNA processing, and therefore not relevant to prokaryotes.
Lithosphere because oil, coal, and natural gas are all located in the crust.
