Calcium ions bind to troponin-tropomyosin molecules located on the grooves of the actin filaments. upon binding with calcium ions, troponin changes shapes and moves tropomyosin out of the groove which the tropomyosin normally blocks the actin myosin binding points. This facilitates creation of the myosin-actin crossbridges which are the basis of contraction of muscles. ATP is the form of energy required to facilitate the creation of cross bridges and movement of calcium ions

aalyn [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. 1, 2, and 4

Explanation:

Option no 1 is true because before maturity, the mosquitoes will not be able to cause malaria and will be easier to kill.

Option no 2 is true because in order to ensure a safe control, the Brachiola gambiae shouldn't be dangerous to other animals or insects.

Option No 3 is not true because Mosquito larvae will contain the male larvae also. As the male larvae are not harmful, hence their growth shouldn't be stopped or they should not be killed.

Option No 4 is correct because before applying any controlling measures for a problem, it should always be kept in mind that it should not have negative effects on other food systems.

Answer No 5 is false because as the females Anopheles are harmful, they should be killed. The male Anopheles are not harmful hence, they should not be killed.

What is the answer with explaining
pychu [463]

Answer:

All EeWw (100%)

Explanation:

This question involves two genes; one coding for earlobes and the other for hairline. According to the question, one parent is homzygous recessive for earlobe but homzygous dominant for hairline i.e. (eeWW) while the other parent is homzygous dominant for earlobe but homzygous recessive for hairline i.e. (EEww).

The cross between the two parents is as follows: eeWW × EEww. The following gamete combination will be produced by each parent:

eeWW - eW, eW, eW, eW

EEww - Ew, Ew, Ew, Ew

Using this gametes in a punnet square, the following proportion of offsprings will likely be produced:

All EeWw

A major function of the ____ division of the autonomic system is the fight-or-flight response in reaction to a threat
Maksim231197 [3]
Autonomic nervous system (ANS) is the branch of the nervous system that provides unconscious control of basic body processes that is consists of two divisions; the sympathetic and parasympathetic. These two divisions have opposing effects on the internal organs they innervate. The Parasympathetic nervous system is the division that balances the actions of the sympathetic nervous system by slowing body processes, returning the body to homeostasis once a stressor has passed. The Sympathetic nervous system is the emergency system. Its major function is the fight-or-flight response in reaction to a threat. It speed-up key body processes to prepare the body for physical action.
