<u>ANSWER:</u>

Unlike smooth muscles, cardiac muscle is striated.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

The cardiac muscles are the muscular wall of the heart whereas smooth muscles are found all over the body.

Cardiac muscles pump blood whereas smooth muscles are responsible for the "rhythmic contractions" in the body that move contents in the digestive system or the urinary tract.

The cardiac muscles cannot be replaced once they are damaged unlike smooth muscles that can be replaced when they degenerate.

Which of the following are thought to be most closely related to humans?
Oxana [17]

The correct answer is: sea stars

All animals listed above are invertebrates. One of the characteristic of invertebrates are that they are protostomes with the exception of Echinodermata (sea stars). The difference between protostomes and deuterostomes is in their embryonic development (orgin of mouth and anus).

In protostomes the mouth forms first: the oral end of the animal develops from the first developmental opening. On the other hand in deuterostomes the first opening (the blastopore) becomes the anus, and the oral end of the develops from the second opening.

Humans are also deuterostomes.

Describe each step of endocytosis
s2008m [1.1K]

Explanation:

The Basic Steps of Endocytosis

The plasma membrane folds inward (invaginates) forming a cavity that fills with extracellular fluid, dissolved molecules, food particles, foreign matter, pathogens, or other substances.

The plasma membrane folds back on itself until the ends of the in-folded membrane meet. This traps the fluid inside the vesicle. In some cells, long channels also form extending from the membrane deep into the cytoplasm.

The vesicle is pinched off from the membrane as the ends of the in-folded membrane fuse together. The internalized vesicle is then processed by the cell.
