Answer: B. Melting temperatures of primer should be between 55-80 degree Celsius.

Explanation:

Bacause the melting temperature controls the binding of the primers to your template DNA. At melting temperature 50% of the primer molecules are bound to their corresponding target sequence. If the difference in melting temperature between the two primers is too high, it might be difficult to find experimental conditions where both primers can bind to their target.

The sliding filament model is our best explanation of how a skeletal muscle shortens. Based on your knowledge of the structure o
Veseljchak [2.6K]

A sacromere is a segment between two adjacent Z discs and are essential for the striated structure of the cardiac and skeletal muscles.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Z disc is surrounded by the I band made of thin filament called actin. The I band is followed by the A band made up of thick filament called myosin. When the muscles contract the actin and the myosin become superimposed/overlapped.

The sliding filament model explains the contraction of the sacromere in which the Z discs move closer due to the overlapping of the thin and thick filaments. Thus the I band moves close to the A band which remain the same length as shown in figure.
