Answer:

Tropomysin, calcium

Explanation:

Tropomysin is a protein that prevents muscle contraction hence acts as a contraction inhibitor. It wraps around the actin blocking the binding sites for myosin on the actin.

Muscle will only contract when they get a rush of calcium ions.

The calcium ions binds to troponin, the troponin changes its shape. The change in shape will remove tropomyosin from the binding sites allowing myosin to bind on the actin leading to muscle contraction.

If you have a heat engine with a hot reservoir of 515°C and a cold reservoir of 190°C, what is the thermal efficiency of the sys
DENIUS [597]

The equation for the thermal efficiency of a system is given by n = Tc/Thx100 where n is the thermal efficiency, Tc is the temperature of the cold reservoir and Th is the temperature of the hot reservoir. Dividing 190 by 515 gives us an efficiency of 36.9%.
