Nitrogen fixation is a process that changes nitrogen within plants and soil into"nitrogen compounds"
The answer is K-selected.
<span>The population size of K-selected species is fairly constant
in time, unlike the population size of r-selected species. r-selected species
are usually bellow carrying capacity and the population size is density
independent. On the contrary, K-selected species are usually near or at
carrying capacity and the population size is density dependent. It can be concluded that sperm whales have K-selected populations, since they </span><span>maintain their populations close to carrying capacity.</span>
Answer: D, a pedigree.
Explanation:
Pedigrees are used to analyze the pattern of inheritance of a particular trait throughout a family.
Answer:
Calcium ions
Explanation:
For muscle contraction to occur, Troponin, a regulatory protein which regulates the tropomyosin, is activated by calcium ions, and is kept at extremely low concentrations in the sarcoplasm. If these calcium ions are released from the sarcoplasm by signals from neurotransmitters, calcium ions bind to troponin, causing conformational changes in troponin that allows tropomyosin to uncover the myosin-binding sites on actin. Tropomyosin a regulatory protein on the myofibril (composed of actin and myosin filaments) must change its conformation and uncover the myosin-binding site (it hides the binding site) on an actin molecule, thereby allowing cross-bridge formation between the actin and the myosin head. Once the tropomyosin is removed, a cross-bridge can form between actin and myosin, triggering muscle contraction.
