Answer:
C. Changes that convert light energy into chemical energy stored in carbohydrates
Explanation:
Just had this question on a bio assignment.
Answer:
The correct answers is: I would predict that animals with longer loops of Henle would be able to concentrate their urine more than animals with shorter loops, and thus they would more likely survive in desserts and other dry areas.
Explanation:
The<em> Loop of Henle</em> is a tubule system that connects the proximal convoluted tubule to the distal convoluted tubule in a nephron, the functional and structural unit of the kidney. Its primary job is to establish a concentration gradient in the kidney's medulla by creating a high urea concentration deep in the medulla using a countercurrent multiplier system that uses electrolyte pumps. Through this mechanism, <u><em>water is reabsorbed to concentrate the urine and impede dehydration</em></u>.
The length of the loops of Henle is of great importance for the countercurrent multiplier system - <u>the longer they are, the more concentrated the urine can get</u>. Therefore, animals with longer loops can survive better in habitats where there is not much water around.
Answer:
Troponin
Explanation:
This is a complex of three proteins (Trop C, I, T) that are responsible for muscle contraction of the skeletal and cardiac muscles . its binds with protein tropomysin to lie in the grove between the actin filaments. its prevents contraction by blocking myosin crossbridge in a relax muscles.Inorder to aid contractions calcium ions binds with troponin, which leads to confrontational change.This exposes myosin on actin filaments, leading to formation of crossbridge and therefore contraction of muscles.
Therefore if there is a mutation in the gene that encoded Troponin, as explained above, calcium ion will not be able to bind with tropinin, and there will be no exposure of myosin on actin filaments, no binding of myosin on actin to cause crossbridge, and consequently no muscle contraction,
Thus the intercoastal muscle and diaphragm will not contract leading to death of the baby.
Answer:
Skeletal muscles fibre are classified base on how the produce energy.
Explanation:
Skeletal muscles fibres consist of bundles of cells that form muscles which contain myobrills.
Skeletal muscles are classified based on how the produce energy;
Type 1 or slow pitch muscle fibres are more efficient and last for a long period of time. They are use for postural maintenance or endurance. It use aerobic respiration to produce energy or ATP.
Type 11 or fast twitch muscle fibres use anaerobic respiration and are for short speed and fatigue more easily than type 1.
Diffusion is when particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Think of it like a little kid party with two bouncy houses. Let's say that both bouncy houses have the same number of kids, but then half of the people in one bouncy house decide to go get lunch. Then one bouncy house is really full and the other almost empty! So you move to the empty bouncy house so you have more space to jump. This is diffusion. So it helps homeostasis because (back to the bouncy house example) you helped even out the two bouncy houses. Now let's say the kids come back from lunch. Now that bouncy house is too crowded so you move back to the now-emptier one. This is diffusion and you would be helping maintain homeostasis, or an equal level, in both bouncy houses.
