. A person rides his bicycle several miles. What process is used by the cells in his legs to release energy at the beginning of

the ride and at the end what cause the pain in his legs
Biology

4 0

Answer:

At the beginning, aerobic respiration is used by his legs to generate energy when there was still sufficient oxygen intake for energy to be generated via oxidative phosphorylation.

Towards the end of the ride, his legs are generating energy through anaerobic respiration due to insufficient oxygen intake to keep up with the energy requirement of his muscles as he cycles continuously. Through anaerobic respiration, pyruvate from glycolysis is converted to lactate by lactate dehydrogenase instead of being channelled to the mitochondria for oxidative phosphorylation. The accumulation of lactate in his muscles is what causes the pain in his leg. After he stops the activity, the pain would reduce as lactate is transported to the liver to be reconverted back into pyruvate.

Why is a "shell of hydration" important to life?
Vitek1552 [10]

D. It allows a variety of substances to dissolve in and around cells.

Explanation:

The shell of hydration is important to life because it allows a broad range of substances to dissolve in and around the cells.

  • The shell of hydration allow for water to dissolve a wide range of substances and disperse them uniformly in it.
  • Water serves a solvent capable of dissolving a wide range of substances because it forms a hydration shell round them.
  • This allow for materials to be in solution around the cell.
  • Diffusion and osmosis can readily now take place.

What are brodmann areas and how do they relate to the neurological deficits that occur as the result of stroke?.
Viefleur [7K]

The Brodmann areas are a method of mapping the cortex and its distinct functions that was developed by Korbinian Brodmann, after whom the areas are named.

Korbinian Brodmann (November 17, 1868 – August 22, 1918) was a German neurologist best known for classifying the cerebral cortex into 52 distinct regions based on cytoarchitectonic (histological) characteristics. These areas are now commonly known as Brodmann areas.

The Brodmann classification divides the cortex into approximately 52 sequentially numbered areas, though some regions have since been subdivided and others are only found in non-human primates.

It is in charge of motor movements such as contralateral finger/hand/wrist or orofacial movements, learned motor sequences, breathing control, and voluntary blinking. The primary visual cortex (Brodmann area 17) is located on the medial surface of the occipital lobe, in and on either side of the calcarine sulcus.

Please help thank you

When a nerve impulse reaches the end of an axon, the axon terminal released ACh into the synaptic cleft. 2. ACh diffuses across the cleft and attaches to the ACh receptors on the sarcolemma of the muscle fiber. 3. ACh binding triggers electrical events that ultimately generate an action potential.
