Biology

Illusion [34]4 years ago

Answer: Chargaff discovered two rules while studying bases in the DNA of the organisms. These rules are as follows-

1) In a DNA molecule, total number of adenine is equal to the number of thymine. Similarly, the number of guanine is equal to the number of cytosine. This gave hint about the base pair makeup of the DNA.

2) The amount of these bases that is A, T, C, and G vary from one species to another species. This gave hint about the genetic material of the organism, which is DNA rather than proteins.

Since each myofibril is attached at either end of the muscle fiber, when sarcomeres shorten, the muscle fiber
zmey [24]

Answer:

B. Shortens

Explanation:

Myofibrils are components of the animal skeletal muscles that are made up of sacromeres. They perform the muscular contraction and relaxation via the sliding filament model.

To produce motion, A cross-bridge forms between actin and the myosin heads triggering shortening of the sacromere. This shortening of the sacromere results in the contraction of the muscle fibers, which the net effect can be seen to be a shortening of the fibers

What is the eventual result of the cellular process of diffusion describe concentration prior to and at this point?
mario62 [17]
<span>The eventual result of diffusion is equilibrium. The concentrations prior to this point would be uneven. The solutes then diffuse from areas of high solute concentration to areas of low solute concentration. After diffusion, at equilibrium, the concentration will be even in different areas. In addition Diffusion will eventually result in a homogenous mixture. The concentration of the mixed species will be constant throughout the mixture.</span>
