Earth's mantle plays an important role in the evolution of the crust and provides the thermal and mechanical driving forces for plate tectonics. Heat liberated by the core is transferred into the mantle where most of it (> 90%) is convected through the mantle to the base of the lithosphere.
Answer:
4, based on the assumption that the R allele is dominant over the r allele, and that the T allele is dominant over the t allele.
Explanation:
Any bush with a dominant petal color allele (R) will have red petals. This includes Rr and RR.
Any bush with a dominant bush size allele (T) will have a tall bush. This includes Tt and TT.
The only way to acquire a short bush or pink petals is to have two recessive alleles together (tt, rr).
RRTT, RrTT, RRTt, and RrTt -> red petals with tall bushes
RRtt, Rrtt -> Red petals with short bushes
rrTt, rrTT -> pink petals and tall bushes
rrtt-> pink petals with short bushes.
These are the four phenotype variations possible in this dihybrid cross.
In cardiac muscle
a. an action potential spreads throughout the Z discs.
b. intercalated discs connect the muscle fibers together.
c. calcium enters the cell from storage chambers called intercalated discs.
d. potassium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Answer:
b. intercalated discs connect the muscle fibers together.
Explanation:
Intercalated discs are components of the muscles found in the heart(cardiac muscles).
Intercalated discs join the cardiomyoctes (muscle cells or fibers) together so that they can function as one and transmit signals amongst themselves during the contraction of the heart.
Intercalated discs are made of up desmosomes and gap junctions.
Intercalated discs are found on the lining of the sacromere and can only be seen by using a microscope to observe the longitudinal section of the heart tissue.
Answer:
striated
Explanation:
skeletal muscle: The voluntary muscle of vertebrates, which is striated and anchored by tendons to bone, is used to effect skeletal movement such as locomotion.
