gene flow or genetic drift can cause changes   in a population

Marina86 [1]3 years ago
6 0

It's called genetic drift: when changes in the alleles of a population are altered due to chance. For example:

There's a population of red beetles. A couple of the beetles are blue due to a genetic mutation. Suddenly, an elephant steps on the beetles, which, coincidentally, most of which were red. This resulted in more blue beetles than red, and after a few generations, mist other beetles are blue, and only a few are red.

What mechanism allows for a contraction of the highlighted cell?
krek1111 [17]

The answer is sliding filament.

Muscle fibers are made up of myosin and actin filaments that straddle one another in alternating sequence. The myosin has myosin heads that act on the actin and enable the myofibrils to slide across each other in opposite directions. This causes the muscle to shorten hence contract. This is an energy-requiring process (hence hydrolyses ATP) and also requires calcium ions. In an animation, the myosin would seem to ‘walk’ on the actin filament.
