What fine-tuned sensory receptors detect differences in tension generated by active muscle rather than muscle length
Anastaziya [24]

golgi tendon organs fine-tuned sensory receptors detect differences in tension generated by active muscle rather than muscle length.

  • Gamma motor neurons fire to regain sensitivity, causing the spindle to contract, becoming taut and regaining the ability to transmit muscle length.
  • There are two groups of motor neurons. Extrafusal fibers, the rapidly contracting fibers that give the muscle its power, are innervated by alpha motor neurons.

What is golgi tendon organs?

  • The Golgi tendon organ, which is located close to the point where a tendon joins a muscle, is a sensory ending that resembles a tree and is encased in a spindle-shaped connective tissue capsule.
  • In a male, one tendon organ is attached to 10 to 20 muscle fibers.
  • An endpoint of a typical tendon organ in limb muscles is roughly 0.5 mm long.

A ship is at anchor. Over its side hangs a rope ladder with rungs a foot apart. The
Triss [41]

Answer:

At the end of 6 hours, 6 feet of the ladder remained above water

Explanation:

we are given the following:

change in tide = 8 inches per hour

1 hour = 8 inches

∴ 6 hours = 8 × 6 = 48 inches

Now, since the length of the ladder is measured in foot, let us convert the rate of tide rising to foot.

12 inches = 1 foot

dividing both sides by 12:

1\ inch=\frac{1}{12}\ feet\\ \therefore 48\ inches\ =\ 48\ \times \frac{1}{12}\\ =\frac{48}{12}\\ = 2 feet

Therefore, after 6 hours, the tide rises by 2 feet.

Next, we are told that the rope ladder at the beginning was 8 feet, hence the length remaining above water after 6 hours of the rising of the tide is calculated as follows:

= 8 feet above water

height of tide = 2 feet = amount submerged in water

∴ length above water = (ladder before rising of the tide) - (amount submerged in water)

length above water = 8 - 2 = 6 feet

Therefore at the end of 6 hours, 6 feet of the ladder remained above water

What effect does hydrostatic equilibrium have on a solar system body
sesenic [268]

To attain spherical shape is the  hydro-static equilibrium have on a solar system body

<u>Explanation:</u>

The interior of the sun has hydrostatic equilibrium which keeps the sun stable. It helps to maintain equilibrium between the gravitational force and the force exerted due to the gas. The gravitational pull creates inward force to destabilise the sun. But the gases creates outward pressure.  

These two forces acting against each other give a spheroidal shape for the planets.The static structure of the solar system body is obtained by the hydrostatic equilibrium and not giving room to shrink or expand its state.

Explain in your own words two ways that we know the cell clones carry the recombinant plasmids
Nata [24]
Plasmid is a small, circular, double-stranded DNA molecule that is distinct from a cell's chromosomal DNA. Plasmids naturally exists in bacterial cells, and they also occur in some eukaryotes. The genes carried in plasmids provide bacteria bacteria with genetic advantages, such as antibiotic resistance. To know whether the cell carry recombinant plasmids; only cells with a plasmid will reproduce and also the color of the colonies in E. coli plasmid recombination experiments allows scientists to distinguish colonies with recombinant plasmids from those without.
