Considering the body’s organization from atoms to organ systems, in which level of organization are proteins like collagen? Desc
storchak [24]

Answer:

According to the levels of organization in the body, the level of organization in which proteins, like collagen, are found is the molecular level, allowing the structural support and the performance of other essential functions.

Explanation:

Proteins are biological macromolecules, polymers of units called amino acids. These molecules belong to the molecular level of organization in living organisms.

The level of organization where proteins are found allows them:

  • <em>Form an essential part of cells.</em>
  • <em>Contribute to the construction of tissues and organs.</em>
  • <em>Participate in metabolic reactions, as enzymes. </em>
  • <em>Defense of the organism, in the form of antibodies.</em>
  • <em>Regulation of vital functions, forming hormones.</em>

Other functions of proteins are to integrate the cell membranes and perform transport function, to form receptors and to be an energy reserve.

Which of the following characteristics are true for an action potential?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

I, II, III

Explanation:

A threshold stimulus is a stimulus that is capable to produce a response in excitable tissues such as neurons and muscle fibers. At threshold potential, the outward movement of K+ and inward movement of Na+ become equal to each other. When the potential exceeds the threshold potential, more and more Na+ enter the cell to depolarize it and to allow the opening of Na+ channels. Therefore, to fire an action potential, the threshold must be exceeded.

Conduction of action potential is all or none phenomenon which means that either it occurs or it does not occur. As an impulse is passed by each successive part of an exon, it enters the refractory period during which there is no conduction of nerve impulse. It ensures the one-way conduction of impulse from the cell body to the axon terminal only.
