Most heterotrophs are chemoorganoheterotrophs<span> (or simply </span>organotrophs<span>) who utilize organic compounds both as a carbon source and an energy source. The term "heterotroph" very often refers to chemoorganoheterotrophs. Heterotrophs function as consumers in </span>food chains: they obtain organic carbon by eating autotrophs or other heterotrophs. <span>Most </span>opisthokonts<span> and </span>prokaryotes<span> are heterotrophic</span>
Answer:
sarcoplasmic reticulum deteriorates and ATP production is stopped
Explanation:
Rigor mortis is the third stage of death characterized by stiffening of joints and muscles in body. The stiffening occurs because muscles are not able to return to the relaxed state. There are two reasons for rigor mortis, depletion of ATP and increase in calcium concentration in cytosol. Due to these factors the actin-myosin crossbridge is not able to break and the muscles remain in contracted state.
Sarcoplasmic reticulum deteriorates and calcium is released into the cytosol. Sarcolemma ( covering of muscle fiber ) also breaks down releasing extra calcium into the cytosol. Calcium is responsible for formation of actin-myosin cross bridge and when its concentration increases the bridge is formed continuously leading to stiffening of muscles and joints.
When a cell has too much of one thing, homeostasis gets rid of some of it and balances the cell out. Just like when you have too much stress, you find ways (coping mechanisms) to get rid of some of it.
