Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Muscle contraction is an example of mechanical contraction.

Explanation:

Muscular contraction is the activation of generating tension which appear in the muscle fiber as it does't change the length of muscle and is followed by muscular relaxation.

Muscle contraction is based on force and length.

The process of skeletal muscle contraction is an energy requiring process.

In order to perform mechanical work,actin and myosin  utilizes the chemical energy into ATP that ultimately require during muscle contraction and relaxation.

In a working muscle,glucose is released  from glycogen that are stored in the muscle by the process of glycolysis in which glucose broken down into ATP that is required by cells and tissues.

A. Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

B. Capillaries surrounding the brain have pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

C. Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are not surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

D. Capillaries surrounding the brain have pores and are not surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

The correct answer is option A.

Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

Explanation:

Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells because

Capillaries are tiny blood vessels in the circulatory system that connect aterioles to venules. They are the most abundant or they are much blood vessels. They can penetrate the tissues of the body which allow passage of food nutrients, oxygen in the body thereby allowing exchange of nutrients and oxygen between the body tissues and the blood.

Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells while capillaries in the periphery Capillaries surrounding the brain have pores and are not surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.
