Answer:
1. Inhibiting IP3 channels, leading to decreased Ca2 in the sarcoplasm and reduced contraction.
2. Increasing the relative activity of MLCP, leading to a decrease in tension.
3. Activating K channels, increasing K leaking out of the cell which hyperpolarizes it and decreases the likelihood of Ca2 entry.
Explanation
In smooth muscle, cyclic AMP (cAMP) mediates relaxation because cAMP inhibits a specific kinase required for myosin light chain protein (MLCP) phosphorylation, thereby triggering contraction in the smooth muscles. It has been shown that cAMP inhibits 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-dependent calcium ions (Ca 2+) release by activation of the cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG). PKG proteins act to modulate Ca2+ oscillations by stimulating sarcoplasmic Ca2+-ATPase membrane proteins, increasing Ca2+ in the sarcoplasmic reticulum stores and Ca2+ efflux from the cells, and activate voltage-gated potassium (K) channels, thereby leading to membrane hyperpolarization and reducing Ca2+ entry through Ca2+ channels.
Answer:
The correct answer is: Species with limited resources usually exhibit a <em>logistic</em><em> </em>growth curve
Explanation:
In ecology, logistic growth refers to the phenomenon where the growth rate of a population decreases as the population reaches its carrying capacity (the number individuals that an environment can support without facing degradation). To put it simply, when a certain species has limited resources available to them, as they reach their carrying capacity, the population of that species will decrease due to death caused by lack of resources for consumption. The attachment shows what logistic growth looks like when plotted on a graph.
Renewable resources are easily obtained and can be created quickly. Things like fossil fuels take millions of years to create. C is the answer because as k stated fossil fuels are nonrenewable and take millions of years to create, Soybeans are easily made so it's renewable.
Hope I helped. :)
