Arrange the steps in the correct order to explain how a muscle fiber contracts. Myosin and actin protein filaments attach to eac

h other. Calcium ions release into the myofibrils. Myosin filaments pull on the actin filaments. The nerve impulse reaches the neuromuscular junction. The motor neuron carries the nerve impulse. The sarcomere shortens.

The motor neuron carries the nerve impulse.

↓

The nerve impulse reaches the neuromuscular junction.

↓

Calcium ions release into the myofibrils.

↓

Myosin and actin protein filaments attach to each other.

↓

Myosin filaments pull on the actin filaments.

↓

The sarcomere shortens.

The neurotransmitter (ACh) from motor neurons signals a muscle fiber to depolarize. The depolarization (Na+) will trigger Ca++ release and will initiate contraction by binding to troponin. Myosin pulls the actin strands. ATP sustains the contraction.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

a) the molecules can be found in the picture below

b) (i) isocitrate lyase ( isocitrate to glyoxylate)

   (ii) malate synthase (glyoxylate to malate)

c)  Glyoxylate cycle do no exist in animals

Explanation:

b) in the glyoxylate cycle isocitrate lyase helps in conversion of  isocitrate to glyoxylate. Also, helps in conversion of glyoxylate to malate by using malate synthase.

c)   Glyoxylate cycle do no exist in animals, it only exist in plants and bacteria. This is because they can produce glucose from acetyl-CoA in required amounts.They have the ability to change acetyl-CoA from fat into glucose. But in animals, this mechanism is not possible.

A horse has 64 chromosomes and a donkey has 62. Using your knowledge of meiosis, explain why a cross between a horse and a donke
nlexa [21]
Ok, so when a horse (with 64 chromosomes) is crossed with a donkey(that has 62 chromosomes), each parent give its child half of its chromosomes. [64/2=32] [62/2=31]. So the mule gets 31 pairs of chromosomes plus 32 pairs of chromosomes. That equals 63 total chromosomes. In order to be a parent, it must give <span>half of its chromosomes to its child. [63/2=31.5] You can't have half a chromosome, so the mule is a sterile organism. Let me know if you have questions.</span>
