The sliding filament theory of muscle contraction was developed to fit the differences observed in the named bands on the sarcomere at different degrees of muscle contraction and relaxation. The mechanism of contraction is the binding of myosin to actin, forming cross-bridges that generate filament movement.

Which of the following is NOT the result of a mutation in the DNA sequence of an organism?
Mama L [17]

DNA is copied during mitosis and when the two resulting copies of DNA are compared they are found to contain the same order of nucleotides is not the result of mutation in the DNA sequence of an organism.

Explanation:

Mutation is the process

It is caused by certain chemicals called mutagens or by environmental factors.

In mutation the nucleotide get change which eventually changes the protein product.

In  mutation purine base gets mutated to purine base and pyrimidine base gets mutated to pyrimidine only.

A single change in nucleotide is called point mutation and the effect occurring because of it is called frame shift mutations.

In S phase there are checkpoints which ensure that DNA replication is accurate and when mitosis follows it equal distribution of DNA takes place between the two daughter cells hence no mutation will takes place.

Which natural processes in the carbon cycle are fast and which are slow?
Anna71 [15]
During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide and sunlight to create fuel-glucose and other sugars for building plant structures. This process forms the foundation of the fast (biological) carbon cycle.

The Slow Carbon Cycle. ... Atmospheric carbon combines with water to form a weak acid—carbonic acid—that falls to the surface in rain. The acid dissolves rocks-a process called chemical weathering-and releases calcium, magnesium, potassium, or sodium ions.
