What ions, ATP, and neurotransmitters are used in muscle contraction and where are they used??

Biology

vivado [14]3 years ago

Answer:

Hiya there!

Explanation:

ATP then binds to myosin, moving the myosin to its high-energy state, releasing the myosin head from the actin active site. ATP can then attach to myosin, which allows the cross-bridge cycle to start again; further muscle contraction can occur.

acetylcholine : Skeletal muscle contraction and changes with exercise. (A) Neurotransmitter (acetylcholine, ACh) released from nerve endings binds to receptors (AChRs) on the muscle surface.

The muscle contraction cycle is triggered by calcium ions binding to the protein complex troponin, exposing the active-binding sites on the actin. As soon as the actin-binding sites are uncovered, the high-energy myosin head bridges the gap, forming a cross-bridge.

If our visual perception depends only on the feature detectors in the visual cortex, what would we see?
Anika [276]

The sophistication of the visual cortex can be simplified through understanding that the neurons found in this region are distinguished by the kind of stimulus that each detects.

There are three major groups of feature detectors in visual cortex. These includes simple cells, complex cells and hypercomplex cells. The simple cells are the most specific since it responds to the geometric characteristics of the stimulus such as the lines of particular width, orientation, angle and position within the visual field. The complex cells are similar to simple cells. What differentiates one from the other is that they respond to the proper stimulus in any position within the receptive visual field. In addition, some of the complex cells respond to particular lines or edges moving in a specific direction opposite the receptive field. Lastly, the hypercomplex cells are responsive to the specific length of the lines. It is believed that the information from all feature detectors conjoin in to result in the visual stimulation perception.

If a code on a dna molecule for a specific amino acid is cta, what would the messesnger rna codon be?
finlep [7]
The RNA codon will be GAU, pairing Cytosine-Thymine-Adenine DNA codon with Guanine-Adenine-Uracil RNA codon. This codon is the Amino Acid, Aspartic Acid. In this codon we see Uracil which is the counterpart of Thymine in the RNA.

TRUE OR FALSE:
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Tropical rainforests are located near the equator and receive precipitation generally in the form of rain. These forests receive a large amount of precipitation throughout the year which can range from 80 inches to 400 inches in a year.  

Temperate rainforests are located on higher altitudes as compared to the tropical rainforests. They receive precipitation in the form of rain and snow. They receive less amount of rain as compared to tropical rainforests. They receive precipitation which lies between 40 inches and 60 inches in a year.

Thus the amount and type of precipitation in tropical and temperate rainforests are different.
