Suppose you observed 32 whitefish blastula cells. One cell was in metaphase, 3 were in anaphase, 8 were in prophase, and 4 were

in telophase. Assuming you assigned a cell cycle phase to each of the 32 cells, calculate the percent of time the whitefish blastula cells spend in interphase.

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Eight prophase cells, one metaphase cell,three anaphase cells, and four telophase cells. It results in 8 + 1+ 3 + 4 = 16 cells.This indicates that the remaining cells of 32-16 = 16 were in interphase.This means the cells spend the maximum amount of time in interphase.This time is equal to half the total cells.

So, if it's a 24-hour process,the interphase should spend 12 hours.

Six hours of prophase, 45 minutes in metaphase and 2 hour, 15 minutes in anaphase, and 3 hours in telophase.

Why do autotrophs have to go through BOTH processes?
Anton [14]

Answer:Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel. These primary producers form the base of an ecosystem and fuel the next trophic levels.

The heads of myosin molecules contact the actin filaments when a muscle is relaxed. The heads of myosin molecules contact the ac
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:The above statement is "false".

Explanation:

The following events take place during contraction-relaxation of a muscle:

•Action potential in T tubule activates voltage-sensitive receptors,which in turn trigger Ca ions release from terminal cisternae of sacroplasmic reticulum(SR) into cystol.

•Ca ions bind to troponin;troponin changes shape,removing the blocking action of tropomyosin;actin active sites is exposed.

•CONTRACTION; myosin heads alternatively attach to actin and detach,pulling the actin filaments toward the center of the sarcomere;using ATP in this process.

•removal of Ca ions by active transport into the SR after the action potential ends.

•RELAXATION occurs.Actin and myosin return back to its unbound state.
