Answer:

Blue and red colours are most the important colours which is absorbed in the process of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

The wavelength of blue color is between 425 - 450 nm and red range is between 600-700 nm. This wavelength of light is absorbed by green pigment of the plant i. e. chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorb these two colors that is blue and red, and produces food in the form of glucose which is a monosaccharide.

A chef fills a 40 mL container with 30 g of cooking oil. What is the density of the oil?

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

So 1 ml=1 cm^3, so 40ml is 40 cm^3

D= m/v

density = 30/40

Density of oil is 0.75 g/cm^3 (which is verified as oil is less dense than water hence floats on it)

Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate, ATP hydrolyzed to ADP and Phosphate and the Myos

svetlana [45]

Answer:

Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate

Explanation:

Muscle contraction results from myosin heads adhering to actin and attracting it inwards. It uses ATP. Myosin adhers to actin at a binding site of its globular actin protein and adheres at another binding site for ATP (hydrolyzed ATP to ADP, Pi and energy)

ATP binding prompts myosin to detach from actin, ATP is changed to ADP and inorganic phosphate, Pi by ATPase. The energy formed at this process orientates myosin head to a “cocked” direction.

The myosin head goes in the direction of the M line, holding the actin with it in the process causing the filaments to orientate nearly 10 nm in the direction of the M line--- power stroke (force is produced), the sarcomere reduces in length and the muscle contracts.

Note: The power stroke is seen when ADP and phosphate disattaches itself from the myosin head.

At the terminal point of the power stroke, the myosin head as low-energy, followed by ADP release.

The attached image shows the cross-bridge muscle contraction cycle, which is activated by Ca2+ sticking to the actin active site. And how actin moves in relation to myosin.
