Biocultural perspectives emphasizes how cultural forces constantly mold human biology.

Explanation:

Biocultural perspectives or phenomena creates bio-social anthropological values and principles by correlating both biological and sociocultural values through a holistic approach and molds the field of human biology as a whole.

Biocultural perspectives details about the role of biological and cultural factors in the evolution of mankind.

One example where the biocultural perspective molds human biology is the study of population growth. This involves biological aspects like fertility, reproduction, pregnancy, childbirth etc along with sociocultural factors like geographic region, sociocultural practices, ethnicity, religion, literacy level of women, birth and death rate of the region etc.

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Calcium binds to troponin C
Troponin T moves tropomyosin and unblocks the binding sites
Myosin heads join to the actin forming cross-bridges
ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate and releases energy
The energy is used to impulse myofilaments slide producing a power stroke
ADP is released and a new ATP joins the myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament
ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, starting a new cycle
Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.

Explanation:

In rest, the tropomyosin inhibits the attraction strengths between myosin and actin filaments. Contraction initiates when an action potential depolarizes the inner portion of the muscle fiber. Calcium channels activate in the T tubules membrane, releasing calcium into the sarcolemma. At this point, tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament. When calcium binds to troponin C, troponin T alters the tropomyosin position by moving it and unblocking the binding sites. Myosin heads join to the uncovered actin-binding points forming cross-bridges, and while doing so, ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate, which is released. Myofilaments slide impulsed by chemical energy collected in myosin heads, producing a power stroke. The power stroke initiates when the myosin cross-bridge binds to actin. As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP links to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament. Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, which starts a new binding cycle to actin. Finally, Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.
