The cramps can be caused due to anaerobic respiration in the muscles and lactic acid formation.

During intense physical activity the muscles become deprived of oxygen, in this condition, anaerobic respiration takes place in the muscle cells causes the formation of the lactic acid.

The physical training increases the strength of the muscles, which can help the muscles not to get tired easily. that is why, physical training is required before any marathon.

The most likely cause of cramps in Bradley's thighs would be the build up of lactic acid. This is a side effect of longer and strenuous activity during which you continouosly tax your body - or rather your muscles where they would need a lot of energy to properly function.

What must eukaryotes do to initiate transcription of a gene?
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

c)Recruit the transcription factors and RNA Polymerase that compose the pre-initiation complex.

Explanation:

Transcription leads to formation of RNA from DNA. The process is carried out by RNA Polymerase which forms a RNA strand according to the template DNA strand.

It starts by the formation of pre-initiation complex. RNA Polymerase along with transcription factors binds to the promoter region of DNA and forms the pre-initiation complex. Generally the eukaryotic promoters have a sequence called as TATA box where the transcription factors bind first. Eventually RNA polymerase also binds to the region and the DNA strands separate starting the transcription process.
