Explain why athletes who excel at short sprints probably have fewer slow oxidative fibers in their leg muscles.

Biology
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Athletes who train short distances and explosive moments of extreme metabolic anaerobiosis have a higher percentage of fast fibers in the muscular structure of skeletal muscles, that is, in the muscles that achieve and carry out locomotion.

Some researchers also argue that men have a predisposition to have more fast fibers than women, since these are predominantly slow fibers.

Rapid muscle fibers to the leg muscle, generating more powerful contractions with less presence of oxygen and greater lactic acidification in the metabolism of the energy currency.

Explanation:

Fast and slow fibers are two different types of fibers, these are usually trained according to the histology or physiology of each athlete.

Those with the highest amount of fast fibers will train and perform better in high-power physical activities, that is, for short distances with little demand for oxygen.

What is the difference between a dominant trait and a recessive trait?
Bas_tet [7]
Dominant- determines the dominant character, more frequently found in the population, produces the complete polypeptide, does not require the presence of a similar gene, more likely to be inherited, more prone to produce diseases

recessive- responsible for the recessive character, expresses the recessive trait, produces an incomplete polypeptide, requires the presence of a similar gene, less likely to be inherited, less prone to produce disease

What happens to mRNA after it completes transcription?
Nana76 [90]

The correct answer is "C."

mRNA stands for messenger Ribonucleic acid.  The role of mRNA is to carry genetic information for the synthesis of protein from the nucleus after transcription.

After the transcription process is over, the mRNA leaves the nucleus and heads to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm where translation of this information takes place.

The ribosomes are the work bench of the cell. They receive the mRNA with its coded information, read it and translate it and with the help of tRNA (transfer RNA), amino acids are fetched from the cytoplasm and linked together to form the exact protein that was coded for on the mRNA.
