Codominance is a form of dominance where alleles of a gene pair in heterozygous is completely expressed resulting to offsprings with a phenotype that is neither dominant or recessive. Incomplete dominance is a form of dominance in which one allele of a specific trait is not completely expressed over its paired allele resulting to a third phenotype in which the physical trait is a combination of the phenotypes of both alleles. Therefore, they are similar in that in both combine homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive. They are different in that in codominance shows both, heterozygous while incomplete dominance shows mixture or blend, new trait and heterozygous.
Answer: Option A.
Transverse tubules rapidly move the action potential to the interior of the muscle potential.
Explanation:
Transverse tubules are cylindrical pockets found in the plasma membrane of muscle cells. They are formed from phospholipid bilayer or sarcolemma of skeletal or cardiac muscle cells. They have membrane that have large concentration of ion channels,transporters and pump. They permit action potention into the cell and also to a particular structure sarcuplasmic reticulum. They play a role in regulating cellular calcium concentration.
Answer:
Cellular respiration breaks down glucose into water and carbon dioxide producing 38 net ATP molecules. ATP is the energy containing nucleotide in cells while the energy found in glucose is used to make ATP. The key difference between glucose and ATP is the composition of these two molecules.
Earthworms have two muscles which is used in locomotion. Both muscles are circular and longitudinal (inner layer of the series of muscles). The diameter of the earthworms body is reduced when the circular muscles are contracted which makes them appear to be thin. The worm appears short when the longitudinal muscles contract thus, its length is reduced.
Amphioxus on the other hand, have two unique muscle fiber types. This includes deep fibers and smaller but mitochondria-rich superficial fibers. E<span>ach of which has its own innervation.</span>
Answer:
c.) increased glucose uptake to the liver from blood
Explanation:
During stressful conditions such as facing a mugger, the sympathetic system of the autonomic nervous system is activated. There is a release of stress hormones from the adrenal glands to produce the flight or fight response. One of the physiological events occurring during these conditions is the breakdown of glycogen into glucose in liver cells and the release of glucose into the blood. The release of glucose by the liver increases blood glucose levels. This is done to ensure glucose availability as fuel. There is no uptake of glucose from the liver cells under such emergency conditions.
