Answer:

A) The striations are due to the orderly arrangement of actin and myosin

Explanation:

Smooth muscles are non-striated involuntary muscles which are found in the walls of stomach, urinary bladder, blood vessels...Smooth muscle tissue is composed of spindle-shaped muscle cells with single central nucleus. Like the other two type of muscles (cardiac and skeletal), smooth muscles also have four main functions:

  • Contractility-ability to contract. In the case of skeletal muscles it is voluntary, while in cardiac and smooth muscles it is unconscious.
  • Excitability-ability to change  membrane potential usually by the influence of nervous impulse.
  • Extensibility-the capacity to lengthen
  • Elasticity-ability to change its length and then return to previous.

Why does survival of the fillest not
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Survival of the Fittest means that animals best suited to a certain area will survive, not that the largest will survive. An example of this is the mouse.

Explanation:

When an animal adapts to live longer, they are adapting to their predators and their environment. For smaller animals, like mice, being big might mean that hawks are able to find them easier, leaving only the small mice to reproduce. I hope this helps!
