Write a paragraph explaining the steps involved in a muscle contraction starting from the brain sending a signal to the muscle a
elixir [45]

Answer:

A Muscle Contraction Is Triggered When an Action Potential Travels Along the Nerves to the Muscles.Muscle contraction begins when the nervous system generates a signal. The signal, an impulse called an action potential, travels through a type of nerve cell called a motor neuron. The neuromuscular junction is the name of the place where the motor neuron reaches a muscle cell. Skeletal muscle tissue is composed of cells called muscle fibers. When the nervous system signal reaches the neuromuscular junction a chemical message is released by the motor neuron. The chemical message, a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, binds to receptors on the outside of the muscle fiber. That starts a chemical reaction within the muscle.Acetylcholine Is Released and Binds to Receptors on the Muscle Membrane.

A multistep molecular process within the muscle fiber begins when acetylcholine binds to receptors on the muscle fiber membrane. The proteins inside muscle fibers are organized into long chains that can interact with each other, reorganizing to shorten and relax. When acetylcholine reaches receptors on the membranes of muscle fibers, membrane channels open and the process that contracts a relaxed muscle fibers begins:

Open channels allow an influx of sodium ions into the cytoplasm of the muscle fiber.

The sodium influx also sends a message within the muscle fiber to trigger the release of stored calcium ions.

The calcium ions diffuse into the muscle fiber.

The relationship between the chains of proteins within the muscle cells changes, leading to the contraction.

What would happen to the carrying capacity and bear population if there were an
Alina [70]

It will result in growth overshoot of bear and the population will exceeds the habitat's carrying capacity.

The fishes serves as food for bears in the food chain of the ecosystem (river). The abundance of fish means there is more and enough food for bears, which in turns enhance their growth and reproduction (exponential phase).

However, bears population will continue to increase (overpopulation) and the carrying capacity (i.e., the amount of resources an habitat can provide for its inhabitants) is depleted. Thus, competition, predation, disease outbreak and others, would set in, resulting to loss of species and habitat in the long run.
