Answer:

Explanation:

Selection is used in identifying some important traits for improving on or elimination.

Selection against is when a selection does not favour a particular allele. If recessive allele is selected against there will be a reduction in the frequency of the allele.

Since it was complete selection against the frequency of the allele will move from its level of fitness to zero and the allele of the gene will be lost completely in the genome of the organism.

natural selection i.e selection done by nature is not enough to get 100% selection against because of the allele reoccuring in heterozygous form but with artificial selection by man it is achievable.

Caffeine aids in the movement of calcium ions across cell membranes by both making it easier for the Ca2+ channels to open and b
Llana [10]

Caffeine cause dose dependent prominent increase in force of contraction and period of contraction of muscle

<u>Explanation:</u>

Caffeine is widely used in foods and drinks. Its long time use can effect central nervous system include lethargy memory, sleep disorder and anxiety.

Increase in concentration of calcium ion will result increase number of power stroke and force for contraction.  However latent period and relaxation period are unaffected by caffeine. Increase in concentration of calcium ion will result increase number of power stroke and force for contraction.

Because of calcium ion release in skeletal muscle, caffeine causes peripheral manifestation such as hyper-reflexia, muscle twitching etc.

High amount of caffeine leads to increase in release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum. It increases tension development in single tetanic contraction and re-initiate maximum tension in fatigue single myofibre by restoring Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum to non-fatigued levels.

How many food calories can a human burn up in an hour by exercising at this rate? (remember that only 20.0 % of the food energy
blsea [12.9K]

Human can produce a maximum mechanical power of 1/3 hp (horse-power).

Horse power is a unit of power, it equals 746 watt (watt is also a power unit, known to be equal to a joule per second)


So:

1 ph = 746 watt = 746 J/s

1/3 ph = 248.6 J/s

we're looking for the calories, so

1 joule = 0.239006 calories


So human produce a maximum mechanical power of:

248.6 J/s = 82.88 calories per second.


We're looking for the number of calories consumed in three hours, so:

82.88 cal/s = 82.88 cal/s * 3600 s * 3 = 895200 calories = 895.2 kilocalories (food calories).


The number of food calories is 895.2 food calories
