during what phase of a muscle twitch chemical changes such as the release of calicum are according intracelluary as rthe muscles
SOVA2 [1]

<u>During </u><u>latent </u><u>phase of a muscle twitch chemical changes such as the release of calicum are according intracelluary as rthe muscles prepare for contractrion.</u>

What are the phases of a twitch contraction?

  • A single contraction is called a twitch. A muscle twitch has a latent period, a contraction phase, and a relaxation phase.
  • A graded muscle response allows variation in muscle tension.

What is a latent period ?

The amount of time that passes between an action potential being generated in a muscle cell and the beginning of muscular contraction.

What is a muscle twitch?

  • The fundamental reaction of a motor unit to a single stimulus is a muscle twitch. Muscle Twitch in three different states .
  • Excitation of the muscle fiber takes place during the latent phase, and calcium ions are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the cell's cytoplasm.

What happens during latent period of muscle twitch?

  • A single muscle twitch consists of three parts. the contraction phase, the relaxation phase, and the latent period, often known as the lag phase.
  • The action potential reaches the muscle, and the latent period is the brief (1-2 msec) interval before tension is seen in the muscle.

In early pregnancy, what hormone stimulates growth of the corpus luteum? human chorionic gonadotropin follicle-stimulating hormo
disa [49]
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is secrete by the embryo early in pregnancy to keep the corpus luteum for dying. This positive feedback will maintain the corpus luteum, which secretes Progesterone and Estrogens throughout pregnancy, in order to keep the endometrium well to nourish the embryo/fetus.

The greatest source of both nitrogen and phosphorus entering chesapeake bay is ________.
sasho [114]
Chesapeake bay is an area that  has suffered from overharvesting and eutrophication. Eutrophication is an enrichment of water by nutrients salts that causes structural changes in the ecosystem such as increased formation of algae and aquatic plants, depletion of fish species among other effects. The greatest source of nitrogen and phosphorus in a Chesapeake bay is agriculture

The absence of which of these will not affect photosynthesis is - oxygen, Carbon dioxide, water, Chlorophyll, light. Give reason
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

Oxygen is the by product of photolysis during photosynthesis whereby water molecules are split to form protons (H+ ions), electrons and oxygen (by product).

Oxygen is not needed during any of the reactions in photosynthesis and Calvin cycle and will not affect the rate of photosynthesis or possibility of photosynthesis occurring. However, it will affect the process of aerobic respiration instead.

Carbon dioxide is needed in carbon fixation during the Calvin cycle. Without it, 6 carbon sugars cannot be formed.

Water is needed for photolysis to produce protons (maintain the electrochemical gradient) and electrons (to replenish lost electrons)

Chlorophyll are pigments that harvest light energy to excite electrons produced from photolysis of water to be passed down the electron transport chain.

Light is needed as a source of energy to energise the electrons
