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.

Transcription is:
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The synthesis of RNA from a DNA template.

Explanation:

We know that transcription is the first step in gene expression. In the transcription process, information from a gene is used to build a functional product such as a protein. The primary goal of transcription is to produce an RNA copy of a gene's from a DNA sequence.

For a protein-coding gene, the RNA copy, or transcript, carries that information that is needed to build a polypeptide.  

Eukaryotic transcripts need to go through some processing steps before starting of translation into proteins.

Which term best describes the systems in an animal's body?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

B. interconnected

Explanation:

All the systems in our bodies (humans are indeed animals) are connected with each other to create a functional being. The blood flows throughout the body, providing nutrients; the bones support the structure and protect the heart and lungs. They work together.

Why not A: The systems are all completely necessary. There's nothing extraneous in our bodies, because extraneous stuff takes up energy, and our biology is incredibly economical.

Why not B: They're not interchangeable. How would you like your bones to turn to blood? Uh-huh.

Why not D: They interact with each other consistently, so they're not separate or segregated.

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

C. both sexual and asexual

Explanation:

In both cases, the parent(s) of the offspring pass down characteristics. Asexual reproduction makes a carbon copy of the parent so they would obviously have the parent's characteristics. Sexual reproduction passes down characteristics of both parents to the offspring.
