How does the structure of the skeletal muscle help it perform its function

1 answer:

The structure of the skeletal muscle helps it perform its function because its striations allow for big movements.
Unlike smooth muscles which don't have much to do with movement and keeping your body together, skeletal muscles are made up of sarcomeres, which are a type of striations, which enable the skeletal muscle to move and keep your body in one place.

Explanation:

(3) active transport

The molecules would be moving against their concentration gradient from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.

While cells facilitate the transport of molecules via movement across the cell membrane, there many different mechanisms. These include passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and passive transport. However some very large molecules require specialized type of active transport, which requires energy in the form of ATP, in order to move substances across the membrane against their concentration gradient.

Active transport is a mediated process that requires an energy input and the use of specialized membrane proteins to move against the concentration gradient. These proteins require energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate or ATP in order to facilitate necessary conformational changes to the large protein molecules to alter the spatial location of the molecule. For instance, with Na+, K+ pumps in cell membranes.
