Answer:

neurotransmission

Explanation:

  • When the nerve impulses are transmitted from one neuron to another or from one neuron to a muscle, then such a type of signalling is known as neurotransmission.
  • When neurotransmission occurs between two nerves, then the neurons communicate by release a neurotransmitter into the synapse between the two neurons.
  • The neurotransmitters are released by the axon terminals from the presynaptic neuron and they bind onto the dendrites of the postsynaptic neurons.
  • Therefore, in the given example the release of acetylcholine (neurotransmitter) from the preganglionic nerve cell onto the postganglionic nerve cell is an example of neurotransmission.

When a muscle moves, a phosphate is removed from ATP. Breaking a bond in ATP allows the chemical energy stored in the bond to di
Bess [88]

Answer:

Some of the energy released by ATP hydrolysis is used in muscle movement while the rest is lost as heat.

Explanation:

According to the second law of thermodynamics, when energy is transformed from one form to another, some energy is used to perform work while the rest is lost as heat to the surroundings. The energy heat energy lost to the surroundings cannot be used to perform functions.  

According to the given information, the chemical energy released from the breakdown of ATP is converted into mechanical energy during the movement of a muscle. However, some of the energy released from ATP is lost as thermal energy and is not available to serve in the movement of muscles. This loss of part of the energy as heat during muscle movement explains that the process follows the second law of thermodynamics.
