Region of the World Percentage Value in Metric tons
North America 17 23,332,500
Asia 52 71,370,000
Africa 3 4,117,500
Europe 18 24,705,000
Latin America and the Caribbean 8 10,980,000
Oceania <u> 2</u> <u> 2,745,000</u>
100 137,250,000
We multiply the 137.25 million metric tons by its percentage to get its equivalent value in metric tons.
Asia uses 71.37 million metric tons.
In making the bar graph, The vertical line will be the percentage and the horizontal line will be the region. Bars of each region should have different colors for easy identification. Spaces between bars should be present, so that the bar graph will not be confused with the histogram.
Answer:
1. Inhibiting IP3 channels, leading to decreased Ca2 in the sarcoplasm and reduced contraction.
2. Increasing the relative activity of MLCP, leading to a decrease in tension.
3. Activating K channels, increasing K leaking out of the cell which hyperpolarizes it and decreases the likelihood of Ca2 entry.
Explanation
In smooth muscle, cyclic AMP (cAMP) mediates relaxation because cAMP inhibits a specific kinase required for myosin light chain protein (MLCP) phosphorylation, thereby triggering contraction in the smooth muscles. It has been shown that cAMP inhibits 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-dependent calcium ions (Ca 2+) release by activation of the cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG). PKG proteins act to modulate Ca2+ oscillations by stimulating sarcoplasmic Ca2+-ATPase membrane proteins, increasing Ca2+ in the sarcoplasmic reticulum stores and Ca2+ efflux from the cells, and activate voltage-gated potassium (K) channels, thereby leading to membrane hyperpolarization and reducing Ca2+ entry through Ca2+ channels.
Answer: In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes partitioned, whereas in meiosis II, sister chromatids isolated. Meiosis II produces 4 haploid girl cells, though Meiosis I produces 2 diploid girl cells. Hereditary recombination (crossing over) as it were happens in meiosis I.
Explanation:
10% of Energy is lost as heat. This is called The Ten percent law
