Answer:

D

Explanation:

Geothermal energy utilizes the natural heat of underneath rocks to heat water to steam. The steam is then used to turn turbines and generate electricity. The water is usually recycled by being injected back to the ground to make sustainable use of the water. However, this process of injecting water in the ground may contaminate the groundwater in aquifers. The water can, therefore, be unsuitable for human use such as watering of plants and animals including household use.

The interaction between which protein and ion initiates muscle coupling?
labwork [276]

Answer:

Troponin and calcium ions.

Explanation:

Troponin is a component of thin filament along with tropomyosin and actin. It is a protein complex to which calcium binds and start the production of muscular force.

Calcium also playing a very important role in muscle contractions, it binds with troponin and helping to move tropomyosin.

When calcium ion attached to troponin, then conformational changes occurs in troponin shape and moves which allow tropomyosin going away from its inhibitory position from the myosin-binding sites on actin. After this, the energized myosin head starts binding to the actin molecules and starts the cross bridge cycle, which helping in shortening the muscle's fiber.

Effectus [21]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

1. closing

2. the ventricles and arteries,

3. a constricted trachea

Lub is the first sound of a heartbeat and is mentioned as S1. It is usually produced due to the closing of tricuspid and and mitral or bicuspid valves present between atria and ventricles.

Tricupsid is located between atrium and ventricle of the right hand side and mitral valve is located between atrium and ventricle of the left hand side. They prevent the back flow of blood from ventricles to their respective atria.

Dub, being the second sound is written as S2. It is produced due to the closing of pulmonary (located between right ventricle and pulmonary artery) and aortic valves (located between left artery and aorta).

These valves prevent the back flow of blood from arteries into the ventricles.

The time between the two sounds is often taken as the measure of the diastole i.e. ventricular filling.

Wheezing refers to a high-pitched sound produced when a person breathes, especially during exhale. It is caused by constriction of the airways or inflammation. It is considered as a symptom of various diseases such as asthma, COPD, allergies, bronchitis etc.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. be more likely to have cancer at some point in his/her life.

Explanation:

Cell cycle checkpoints are controlled by different proteins which are coded by different genes. They are important in cell cycle regulation and stops cell cycle immediately if they find any problem in the cell like mutation.

The cell cycle will not be continued if the problem does not solve and cell death will occur which prevents cancer by preventing the mutation to spread into new cells.  

Therefore if a mutation occurs in certain genes that enforce a checkpoint on the cell cycle then the mutated gene will pass in new cells and the mutated cells will grow uncontrollably due to no checkpoints so the person will probably have cancer at some point in his or her life.
