Answer:

4 is gravitational force

Option B

Explanation:

This is a force diagram of a block on an inclined plane.

The force component is what makes up weight in the diagram. Weight is given as mass multiplied by the gravity.

Gravitational force acts downward and it is the force of attraction between all objects and the earth. It is directly proportional to mass.

Force 1 and 2 are both shear forces that acts parallel to the face of the incline. They are mostly expressed as frictional forces.

How are muscles able to contract
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Muscles contract through a chain process of electrochemical signalling between the nervous system and muscles.

Explanation:

The muscle contraction is initiated by the nervous system by sending a signal. This signal also referred to as action potential travel through the motor neuron. This motor neuron releases a chemical signal to muscle when the electrical signal carried by it reaches the neuromuscular junction (a junction where motor neuron meets the muscles).  

The chemical message referred to as neurotransmitter binds to the receptors present on the muscle fibers. These receptors causes the influx of sodium ion which in turn trigger the release of calcium ion thereby initiating the contraction of muscles.
