A teacher writing to a confused student.
bacteria are microscopic (very tiny) organisms that are unicellular (made up of a single cell). One fundamental difference is that bacterial cells lack intracellular organelles, such as mitochondria, chloroplasts, and a nucleus, which are present in both animal cells and plant cells.
Answer:
The correct answer is: Eccentric phase.
When talking about movement, we are talking about the activation of muscle fibers in order for this process to happen. In order for this to happen, motor neurons must activate the phases of muscle excitation, contraction and relaxation, so that the sarcomeres, and thus the fibers, can generate movement.
In essence, there are three stages, or phases, to complete muscle movement: the concentric phase, which is when the muscle fibers are excited and begin the process of contraction. This means the muscle fibers will contract and generate movement, generating a shortening. Then we have the isometric stage, a moment in which there is no longer any more shortening of the muscle fibers, so basically, the movement is held and there is no further contraction, but neither is there relaxation of the muscle fibers. Finally, we have the eccentric phase. This phase is characterized precisely because it is the moment when the muscles begin to return to their resting position.
When the Sun's energy moves through space, it reaches Earth's atmosphere and finally the surface. This radiant solar energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This heat energy is transferred throughout the planet's systems in three ways: by radiation, conduction, and convection.
