Answer:

d. propagation of an action potential along the sarcolemma and T tubules

Explanation:

Excitation-contraction coupling occurs in the body as an electrical signal to the muscles, which must capture this signal and perform muscle contraction.

After this signal is emitted, an action potential is generated that will act on the neuromuscular junction and spread quickly and coordinated by the sarcolemma, reaching the T tubules.

In the T tubules, receptors of dihydropyridine receptors are located, which will continue the process, until muscle contraction is performed.

Excitation-contraction coupling refers to the series of events that begins with the excitation of the sarcolemma in response to stimulation by a neurotransmitter, and results in the release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Hence, option D is the 1st process that starts the excitation-contraction coupling.

The expression 40x2 – 65x + 50 represents the sum of the interior angles of a regular pentagon in degrees. If the interior angle
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

2(8x^2-13x+10)

Explanation:

There are 5 angle s in a pentagon and we are assuming are pentagon is a regular one so the angles are all congruent.

Let's let A represent the measurement of one of the those angles in our pentagon.

The sum of our angles in our pentagon would then be A+A+A+A+A or 5A.

But we are also given that this equals 40x^2-65x+50.

So that means 5A=40x^2-65x+50.

If we divide both sides by 5 we can find what one of our angles is in terms of x.  So let's do that A=8x^2-13x+10.

So we want to know the sum of two our angles, we want to know what is A+A or 2A.  2A=2(8x^2-13x+10).  To obtain that I just multiplied both sides of A=8x^2-13x+10 by 2.
