<h2>Skeletal & Cardiac Muscle</h2>

Explanation:

  • A skeletal muscle is a contractile organ that is directly or indirectly attached to bone. Skeletal muscles move the body. Skeletal muscle contractions pull on tendons, which are attached to bones. If contraction of the muscle causes the muscle to shorten, the bone and, thus, the body part will move. For example, the biceps brachii is attached to the shoulder and the forearm bones
  • Contraction and, thus, shortening, of the biceps brachii pulls on the tendons attached to the bones. Skeletal muscle contraction, however, doesn't always result in the movement of a body part
  • Contraction of smooth muscles controlled by autonomic nervous system and contraction can be initiated by electrical or chemical signals. Actin is plentiful, lacks troponin
  • Skeletal muscle is controlled by somatic motor division and always begins with an action potential

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- Australopithecus.

Explanation:

<em>Australopithecus</em> is an extinct genus of a large group of animals called primates. This genus is closely related to humans which may or may not be ancestors of <em>Homo sapiens</em>.

Australopithecus exhibits traits of both ape and human-like which is distinguished by the small size of the brain, smaller canine teeth but large molar and premolar teeth, broad dish-shaped face, sagittal crest, large molar teeth, flared zygomatic arches and sloping forehead.

Thus, option- Australopithecus is the correct answer.

Answer: Colon cancer

Explanation:

All cancers, but especially colon and rectal cancers, commonly referred to as colorectal cancer (CRC), have hereditary factors that potentially increase one’s risk.

Genetic testing is determine if there is an increased risk of colon cancer. Apolipoprotein E (apoE) plays a major role in the metabolism of bile acids, cholesterol and triglycerides, and has recently been proposed as being involved in the carcinogenic process. Given the potential role of bile acids in colorectal cancer etiology, it is reasonable that colorectal cancer risk might be modified by apoE genotype. The absence of an e3 apoE allele significantly increased the risk of colon cancer especially for individuals above 50years.
