Bone marrow plays an important role in our circulatory system because Bone marrow contains hematopoietic stem cells which is the major producer of red blood cells or erythrocytes,white blood cells also know as leukocytes and also platelets( thrombocytes) which is the major components of our blood,the only liquid that is very essential in our circulatory system.
Answer:
Active transport of calcium into the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Explanation:
- The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is a membrane-bound structure found within muscle cells that is similar to the endoplasmic reticulum in other cells. The main function of the SR is to store calcium ions (Ca2+)
- In response to an action potential traveling along the t tubule, voltage-sensitive proteins change shape, opening calcium channels in the adjacent terminal cisterns of the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Answer: If a husband and wife who are both carriers of the sickle-cell anemia allele (Ss) but do not have the disease decide to have a child, the offspring can be Normal (SS), carrier (Ss) or sick (ss) with the probability ¼, 2/4 (½) and ¼ respectively.
Explanation: If the mother contributes the dominant allele and the father also contributes the dominant allele, the genotype of the child will be SS. The probability is ¼. This means there is a 25% chance that a randomly selected offspring will be a normal child and will not have sickle-cell anemia.
If the mother contributes the dominant allele and the father contributes the recessive allele, the genotype of the child will be Ss. The probability is 2/4 or ½. This means there is a 50% chance that a randomly selected offspring will be a carrier of sickle cell anemia, but will not have sickle-cell anemia.
If the mother contributes the recessive allele and the father also contributes the recessive allele, the genotype of the child will be ss. The probability is ¼. This means there is a 25% chance that a randomly selected offspring will have sickle cell anemia.
