- The presence of calcium in the sarcoplasm is directly responsible for exposing the binding sites on actin.
- Rigor mortis occurs after death because detachment of crossbridges does not occur due to the lack of ATP
<h3>What is Sarcoplasm?</h3>
This is defined as the the cytoplasm of striated muscle cells in living organisms .When calcium is present, the binding sites on actin are exposed.
Rigor mortis occurs after death and involves stiffening of the muscle tissue because detachment of cross bridges does not occur due to the lack of ATP.

I believe animals that possess homologous structures probably evolved from the same ancestor. Homologous structures are similar because of common ancestry. A homologous structure is an example of an organ or bone that appears in different animals, underlining anatomical commonalities demonstrating descent from a common ancestor.
Answer:
A. Molecular changes such as extracellular signals on extracellular ligands can result in quick changes in cell behaviour. One example is insulin. Upon insulin binding on the receptor on the cell membrane, the cell release GLUT4 transporters (for muscle cells) to increase uptake of glucose.
B. Slow changes in cell behaviour can be observed for other lipophilic hormones or intracellular receptors such as glucocoortoid or estrogen which reacts with receptors in the cells.
C. Insulin is required to maintain a constant blood glucose level and hence levels of insulin has to be mediated in correspondence to the blood glucose levels. Fast acting signalling is thus required for homeostasis of blood glucose levels. Where for such lipophilic hormones such as steriods, glucocortoid, these hormones tend to have a longer lasting effect and hence results in a slow change.
