The correct answer is: The speed of sound is faster in the water than in the air.  

The speed of sound is different between those two mediums because they have different densities. Since, water is denser than air, more energy is required to generate a wave but once it stars, it travels faster than it would do in air. Sound waves’ travel can be presented by particles that transmit the energy one to another as they bump. The sound speed is lower in the air (than in water) because particles are far apart, so they travel further before they collide.

Answer:

Experiment 4. Relaxed, the drug will stop the calcium so that it does not act on the troponin

Experiment 5. Contraction: In order for the muscle to relax, the actin and tropomyosin union must occur.

Experiment 6. Relaxation: the release of the actin-myosin complex occurs with consumption of ATP, thus it slides and generates contraction, by adding a hydrolyzable analog, this reaction is avoided giving rise to a prolonged actin-myosin binding which leads to relaxation while last effect.

Experiment 7. Ca2 + Contraction is very necessary so that during muscle contraction troponin can be extracted.
