Titin is a spring-shaped elastic protein that attaches to the thick filament and anchors it to the Z-discs of a sarcomere. If ti

tan was denatured, making it straight, it would no longer be able to: a. hold the thick filament in place. b. recoil when stretched and uncoil when the force is removed. c. contract the sarcomere. d. uncoil when stretched and recoil when the force is removed.

Answer:

a. hold the thick filament in place.

Explanation:

Titin is the third most abundant protein in skeletal muscle (after actin and myosin), this protein has a highly elastic potential, and is therefore the protein most responsible for muscle elasticity.

Each titin molecule connects a Z line to the M line of a sarcomere, thus helping to stabilize the position of the thick filament.

So, titin denaturation may result in an inability to hold the thick filament in place.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

evolutionary theory

Explanation:

The evidence is overwhelming that the Grand Canyon was dug over a span of millions of years by the erosive power of the Colorado River and that river’s tributary streams.

This evidence does not support catastrophic theory but it does support evolutionary theory, because it was gradual process and took place overtime. It did not happen in a catastrophic manner.

n explosion breaks an object initially at rest into two pieces, one of which has 2.0 times the mass of the other. If 8400 J of k
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The heavier piece acquired 2800 J  kinetic energy

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of linear momentum:

0 = M₁v₁ - M₂v₂

M₁v₁ = M₂v₂

let the second piece be the heavier mass, then

M₁v₁ = (2M₁)v₂

v₁  = 2v₂ and v₂ = ¹/₂ v₁

From the principle of conservation of kinetic energy:

¹/₂ K.E₁ + ¹/₂ K.E₂ = 8400 J

¹/₂ M₁(v₁)² + ¹/₂ (2M₁)(¹/₂v₁)² = 8400

¹/₂ M₁(v₁)² + ¹/₄M₁(v₁)² = 8400

K.E₁ + ¹/₂K.E₁ = 8400

Now, we determine K.E₁ and note that K.E₂ = ¹/₂K.E₁

1.5 K.E₁ = 8400

K.E₁ = 8400/1.5

K.E₁ = 5600 J

K.E₂ = ¹/₂K.E₁ = 0.5*5600 J = 2800 J

Therefore, the heavier piece acquired 2800 J  kinetic energy

Which of the following are true (choose all that apply)? Sound can travel through a vacuum. -Sound can travel through water. Lig
Lunna [17]

Answer:

option (A) - false

option (B) - true

option (C) - true

option (D) - true

option (E) - true

option (F) - true

Explanation:

The sound waves are mechanical waves that means they need a medium to travel.

The light waves are non mechanical waves it means they do not need a medium to travel.

Sound cannot travel trough vacuum.

Sound can travel through air and water.

Light can travel trough vacuum and in air and in water.
