Smooth muscle cells lack which protein(s)?

Biology
1 answer:
LuckyWell [14K]3 years ago

The correct answer is C. troponin only.

The smooth muscle cells contain similar elements like the cardiac and skeletal muscle cells including actin, myosin and tropomyosin but they contain troponin.

Smooth muscle tissues are non striated and produce their own connective tissue called endomysium. Smooth muscle cells also lack sarcomeres but have other thin and thick filaments along with actin and myosin contractile proteins.

Due to lack of troponin the cross bridge formation is regulated by the regulatory protein calmodulin instead of the troponin- tropomyosin complex.

Relative dating is used to determine a fossils approximate age by comparing it to similar rocks and fossils of known ages.

Carbon capture and sequestration

While it's not a power generation technology, carbon capture and sequestration—technologies that allow for the scrubbing of carbon from power plants for storage in underground reservoirs—may finally be coming of age after years of trial and error.

Technology pilot demonstrations at coal-based power plants in places like Australia and the U.S. have sparked new interest in the technology.

The hope is, it could become an enabler for other technologies, such as biomass or algae-based biofuels that produce carbon emissions. That's because organic fuels pull carbon from the atmosphere before converting it to fuel.
