<span>There are numerous proteins in muscle. The main two are thin actin filaments and thick myosin filaments. Thin filaments form a scaffold that thick filaments crawl up. There are many regulatory proteins such as troponin I, troponin C, and tropomyosin. There are also proteins that stabilize the cells and anchor the filaments to other cellular structures. A prime example of this is dystrophin. This protein is thought to stabilize the cell membrane during contraction and prevent it from breaking. Those who lack completely lack dystrophin have a disorder known as Duchene muscular dystrophy. This disease is characterized by muscle wasting begininng in at a young age and usually results in death by the mid 20s. The sarcomere is the repeating unit of skeletal muscle.
Muscle cells contract by interactions of myosin heads on thick filament with actin monomers on thin filament. The myosin heads bind tightly to actin monomers until ATP binds to the myosin. This causes the release of the myosin head, which subsequently swings foward and associates with an actin monomer further up the thin filament. Hydrolysis and of ATP and the release of ADP and a phosphate allows the mysosin head to pull the thick filament up the thin filament. There are roughly 500 myosin heads on each thick filament and when they repeatedly move up the thin filament, the muscle contracts. There are many regulatory proteins of this contraction. For example, troponin I, troponin C, and tropomyosin form a regulatory switch that blocks myosin heads from binding to actin monomers until a nerve impulse stimulates an influx of calcium. This causes the switch to allow the myosin to bind to the actin and allows the muscle to contract. </span><span>

Answer:
A trait is any gene-determined characteristic and is often determined by more than ... by mutated genes that are inherited or that are the result of a new gene mutation. ... A karyotype is a picture of the full set of chromosomes in a person's cells.
Explanation:
Answer:
There is no correct answer.
Explanation:
Different circumstances regarding how you operate your company and what kind it is.
Also, with sole proprietorships, it may be hard to manage liabilities, as the owner is <em>personally</em><em> </em>responsible for any liabilities. It is also hard to procure funding for your company.
However, it is simple to incorporate and allows for high flexibility, which may be what you mean by "easiest type ... to start".
Answer:
Option C) Feedback inhibition
Feedback inhibition is a regulatory mechanism in which the end product of a metabolic pathway inhibits an enzyme that catalyzes an early step in the pathway.
Explanation:
Feedback inhibition is a regulatory mechanism in which a biochemical pathway is regulated by the amount of the product that the pathway produces. Thus, it is also known as end-point inhibition.
For example:
The accumulation of ATP inhibits the action of phosphofructokinase, the enzyme that catalyzes the rate-limiting step of glycolysis
I believe the first answer is 140 w. The second is elastic potential energy.
