Inadequate calcium in the neuromuscular junction would directly affect which of the following processes?

Biology
1 answer:
AysviL [449]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a. Release of acetylcholine from the synaptic vesicles

Explanation:

The events on neuromuscular junction:

Action potential travels through the membrane of the presynaptic cell causing the voltage-gated channels permeable to calcium ions to open. Ca2+ flow through the presynaptic membrane and increase the Ca concentration in the cell which will activate proteins attached to vesicles that contain a neurotransmitter (e.g. acetylcholine). Vesicles fuse with the membrane of the presynaptic cell, thereby release their contents into the synaptic cleft-space between the membranes of the pre- and postsynaptic cells. Neurotransmitter ACh binds to its receptors on the postsynaptic membrane and its binding causes depolarization of the target cell (muscle cell). Depolarization occurs because sodium enters the cell as a result of neurotransmitter receptor binding.

Hypothesize on why you think larger populations would tend to have more variation in phenotypes than smaller populations
abruzzese [7]

Phenotype = Observable/Physical characteristics.


Simple because there would be a larger gene pool, more opportunity for variation than a small population which has less of a gene pool and therefore less opportunity for variation.

Select the correct answer.
Oduvanchick [21]
The answer is C.

The man’s genotype must be AB. The woman’s genotype can be either BB or BO as both correspond to a blood type (which is a phenotype) of B.

Each parent passes on one allele. The man can contribute A or B and the woman can contribute B or O.

The possible genotype combinations are therefore AB, AO, BB, and BO. These correspond to the phenotypes AB, A, B, and B.

Which type of mutation stops the translation of the mRNA?
Gre4nikov [31]

If a substitution changes the amino acid to a “stop,” it's called a NONSENSE mutation. frameshift, missense, silent or nonsense (hint: deletion or insertion will always be frameshift). Sickel cell anemia is the result of a type of mutation in the gene that codes for part of the hemoglobin molecule.
