Answer:

LPL Lipoprotein Lipase

Explanation:

LPL is a ubiquitous enzyme that is found in the lumen of blood capillaries. It hydrolyzes the tracilglycerols of lipoproteins rich in triacylglycerols and breaks them down to free fatty acids and glycerol, releasing them into muscle and adipose tissue. It also allows the uptake of the resulting free fatty acids by the underlying tissues.

How do genetics (genetic predisposition) and the environment work together to cause substance abuse in individuals? What is the
vampirchik [111]

Answer: The drug abuse is influenced by the environment and exerts influence on the gene expressions.

Explanation:

The genetic make up of the person is decides, which genes will be expressed and develop a trait in an individual. But this genetic expression can be influenced by the environmental factors like food, exposure to sunlight, and others. This study which relate environment with the genetic make up is called epigenetics. No person is drug addict by birth but the consumption of drug can influence the genetic make up and traits in a abuser. So here, the environment is influencing the genetic basis of a abuser.

Using the sliding flament theory, explain (or draw) the process of sarcomere shortening. Start from the point where calcium woul
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

  1. Calcium binds to troponin C
  2. Troponin T moves tropomyosin and unblocks the binding sites
  3. Myosin heads join to the actin forming cross-bridges
  4. ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate and releases energy
  5. The energy is used to impulse myofilaments slide producing a power stroke
  6. ADP is released and a new ATP joins the myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament
  7. ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, starting a new cycle
  8. Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.

Explanation:  

In rest, the tropomyosin inhibits the attraction strengths between myosin and actin filaments. Contraction initiates when an action potential depolarizes the inner portion of the muscle fiber. Calcium channels activate in the T tubules membrane, releasing <u>calcium into the sarcolemma.</u> At this point, tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament. When calcium binds to troponin C, troponin T alters the tropomyosin position by moving it and unblocking the binding sites. Myosin heads join to the uncovered actin-binding points forming cross-bridges, and while doing so, ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate, which is released. Myofilaments slide impulsed by chemical energy collected in myosin heads, producing a power stroke. The power stroke initiates when the myosin cross-bridge binds to actin. As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP links to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament.  Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, which starts a new binding cycle to actin. Finally, Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.
