Answer and Explanation:

RYR1 gene plays a pivotal role in muscle contcations. This gene produces a protein called ryanodine receptor 1. This protein is a protein in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, forming a channel in the reticulum membrane, the ryanodine channel, which controls calcium transport, an important step in controlling muscle contractions (skeletal muscles).  Muscle contractions are triggered by the flow of positively charged ions, including calcium, into muscle cells.  When muscles are at rest, calcium ions are stored in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (cellular structure)  inside each muscle cell. In response to certain signals, the RYR1 channel releases calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the (cytoplasm. The resulting increase in calcium ion concentration stimulates muscle fibers to contract, allowing the body to move.Mutation in the gene results in a defective channel protein and allows the release of high amounts of calcium ion relative to the normal channel.

Birth control methods can be temporary or permanent. Which is a permanent method of birth control?
Inga [223]

The permanent birth control method is vasectomy. A vasectomy is a procedure to make a man sterile, by blocking sperm from reaching the semen that is ejaculated from the penis. The fluid contains semen, but no sperm, so it prevents the pregnancy.

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

There are many birth control methods, some more effective than others. Some can prevent you from STD (Sexual Transmitted Disease) disease.  

1. Contraceptive pills/birth control pills

Birth control pill contains a combination of progesterone and estrogen hormone to control the ovaries and the uterus. Birth control pill works best when it is taken every single day at the same time of day. A Pill is an effective form of birth control, but even missing one day increases the chance of getting pregnant.

2. Male condoms.

This type of birth control not only prevent pregnancy but also prevent you from STD disease

3. The intrauterine device (IUD)

IUD is a coil and flexible T-shaped device that is placed in the uterus by a physician. There are two types of IUD, a copper, and a hormonal IUD.

4. Injections

It prevents pregnancy by stopping the woman from releasing an egg. The shot is injected every 3 months at a doctor's office.
