Answer:

The plus end for all actin filaments.(Ans. A)

Explanation:

All three types of muscles (cardiac, smooth, and skeletal) utilize actin filaments to generate force which leads to cell contraction. Actin filaments is organized into sarcomeres which function as the fundamental unit of contraction.

Sarcomeres are approx 2.4 micro meter in length, and they are bounded at both end with the help of Z-disks. Plus end of the Z-disks are oriented with actin filaments and their minus ends to the direction of center of the sarcomeres. Z-disk consist an actin capping protein, which is known as cap-Z. Cap-Z helps to bind plus end of the actin filaments.

When comparing the yield of ATP from the different stages of cellular respiration, which produces the greatest number of ATP
REY [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - electron transport system.

Explanation:

There are 3 main stages of cellular respiration (aerobic) that are Glycolysis, the Kreb's Cycle and the ETS or Electron Transport Chain. The formation of energy in ATPare as follows:

Glycolysis - glucose > 2 Pyretic Acid Molecules =>2 ATP and Hydrogen

The Krebs Cycle - Citric Acid (a derivative of Pyruvic Acid) > 2 ATP in 4 cycles and  Hydrogen, carbon dioxide and water.

The Electron Transport Chain > electron carrying Hydrogens > releases the energy as 4 ATP and water

Thus, the correct answer is - The Electron Transport Chain is the stage that produces most of the ATP during cellular respiration.

How does ATP provide energy to your body?
olganol [36]
Energy is usually liberated from the ATP molecule to do work in the cell by a reaction that removes one of the phosphate-oxygen groups, leaving adenosine diphosphate (ADT). When the ATP converts to ADP, the ATP is said to be spent.
