Biology

Delvig [45]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is C: a myosin head bound to actin.

Explanation:

The cross bridge cycle is a series of events that occur during muscle contraction. When muscle contracts, a myosin head (projected from a thick myosin filament) attaches to a thin actin filament <em>(this is the so-called cross bridge).</em> The thin filament also contains tropomyosin and troponin.

Then, a second myosin head binds to ATP and catalyzes it in presence of calcium. This step gives the muscle the energy to contract.

Without calcium, tropomyosin and troponin avoid myosin and actin to interact.

You made a "cell" using dialysis tubing and a concentrated sugar solution tinted red. You then placed the cell in distilled wate
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

When the cell has 0% sucrose I expect the cell to stay the same.

Explanation:

First of all, this question should not be confused for the statement "When the "cell" has 0% sucrose, did you expect the cell to have gained water, lost water, or stay the same. In this case, the correct answer would have been; gained water.

But, in this question, we are asked what happens to the cells at 0% sucrose concentration. At 0% (no solute) concentration, there is no net movement of water or solute into or out of the cell, because the cell is isotonic to the external environment (distilled water). Osmosis, a special kind of diffusion, is the movement of water, from areas of lower solute concentration to area of higher solute concentration, or from areas of higher water concentration to areas of lower water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. If the water moves into the cells (hypertonic cells), then the cell gains water and increases in size, but if the cell loses water (hypotonic cell), then it reduces in size
