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.

Question 3
LenKa [72]

Answer:

B is the correct answer.

A is incorrect because respiration is always occuring in animals and plants, therefore it means it does not require the presence of light. Photosynthesis does produce ATP, though.

Not C because photosynthesis does not occur in animals

Not D because they both are  different processes. They don't really depend on each other, though they could occur at the same time.
