Answer:
The source of Calcium (Ca⁺⁺) for the skeletal muscle cells is the sarcoplasmic reticulum, the main store of intracellular Ca⁺⁺.
Explanation:
Calcium (Ca⁺⁺) is an ion that plays an important role in muscle contraction, a process that requires high cytoplasmic concentrations of this ion to promote myofibrillary activity.
The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) -equivalent to the endoplasmic smooth reticulum- is an organelle that regulates the contractile activity of skeletal muscle. The two terminal cisterns of the SR attach to the T-tube, forming a triad, which surrounds the myofibrilla.
Once the muscle cell receives the signal to contract, the Ca⁺⁺ channels are opened and allow Ca⁺⁺ to enter the cell, promoting the exit of this cation from the SR and increased its cytoplasmic levels. This stimulates muscle contraction.
Answer:
The nutrients in form of calories are fats and oils. The nutrients that regulate body processes and promote growth, development and maintenance of body tissues are Proteins.
Ventilation maintains a steep concentration gradient, blood at the exchange surface usually has lower O2 and higher CO2 content than the air (of for fish, the water) at the exchange surface. This is what allows for diffusion of O2 into the blood and CO2 out of the blood. Multicellular organisms have a greater number of cells so will have a higher energy demand than single cellular organisms, this demand can only be met by allowing the cells to respire, a ventilation system brings oxygen molecules which are a raw product of respiration into the hemoglobin of the blood to be transported to tissues. As surface area : volume ratio is very low so if there was no ventilation system and the organism instead relied on exchange of materials through the exposed skin it would be very difficult to met the high energy demand as less O2 and CO2 would be able to be exchanged.
Answer:
Plant A listens to classical music for three hours each day
Explanation:
- Music affect plant growth of plants through the vibrations that it creates to the sound waves.Classical music causes more pressure to the sound waves causing vigorous vibrations which is picked up by the plants speeding up the protoplasmic movement in the cells.
- The vibrations causes movement of the plant cells which speed up growth of the plants by stimulating the plants to produce more nutrients enabling them to germinate having more leaves,greater in size and other improved characteristics which means the plant's genetic chromosomes were changed.
- Also in the soil is able to produce good fungi and bacteria encouraging better root development due to healthy vines resulting to vigorous growth and better fruit.
- Moreover the plants are able to receive special attention and care from the farmer thus enhancing faster growth.
