When a skeletal muscle relaxes,myosin head attach to actin by breaking down ATP to ADP and phosphate with the help of myosin ATPase. The myosin head forms the cross -bridges on the active site of the actin.The cross-bridge pulls the actin which slide over the myosin. The release of ADP completes the cross-bridge movements . ATP attaches to myosin, and break the actin -myosin cross-bridge. Thus breaking of ATP into ADP and phosphate help the thin filament to return to their original position.

Damm [24]

Given: The systolic arterial blood pressure observed for 20 dogs is normally distributed with a mean of 152 mm of mercury (Hg) and a standard deviation of 18 mm of Hg.  

To find: P(100 < 152)

Method: Calculation of Z-Score followed by the probability or area of the bell curve at X = 100.

Solution:

Mean u = 152, std s = 18

Z score = \frac{X-u}{s} = \frac{100-152}{18} = -2.89

The value of P(100<152) is calculated by looking at the value of Z in the Z score for the standard normal distribution given in the image.

P(Z=-2.89) = 0.0019

The P(Z = -2.89) corresponds to the area in the left tail of the bell curve.

Thus the probability of 100 mm Hg blood pressure is 0.0019.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. sugar

Explanation:

Even though caffeine is also known for uprising the energy levels to a point where it could cause insomnia, the excess of sugar usually causes an increase in heart rate and insomnia. Also, coca-cola has a bigger amount of sugar than caffeine, so it explains how these high quantities could affect Xi's health.

A glucose molecule is completely broken down to carbon dioxide and water in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. True or False
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A glucose molecule enters glycolysis in the cytoplasm of the cell. The glycolytic reactions break down one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. Each of the pyruvate molecules is then decarboxylated and is oxidized into acetyl CoA. Acetyl CoA enters Kreb's cycle. Acetyl CoA is completely broken down into CO2 and H2O in Kreb's cycle. In this way, glycolysis and Kreb's cycle break down the glucose molecule into CO2 and H2O in a stepwise manner.
