Which component is responsible for initially stimulating a muscle contraction?

Biology
1 answer:
Andrei [34K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Option B, electrochemical signals

Explanation:

The first process that initiates the muscle contraction is the binding of calcium ion with troponin protein. After this chemical interaction, the active binding sites of actin gets exposed. After this myosin binds to the actin sites thereby forming a high-energy  head bridge and releasing the pi. Mysosin now goes to a lower energy state by undergoing conformational change. This causes power stroke and actin filament is pulled towards the M-line. Later on the muscle contracts by shortening  sarcomere.

This entire process is an electrochemical process. hence option B is correct.

What is evolution in a general sense? In a genetic sense?
kakasveta [241]
  Evolution is what you might call, traits that is inherited over generation to the next. An evolution is when there is a change within the genepool and it beneficial to survival. Take a giraffe for example. Back then, they had short necks and it had eat from plants on the ground. Though from generations later when they learnt that food grows on trees and stretched there necks to reach for, they now can eat from trees without a problem. Hope this helps you better understand what evolution is.
