Natural selection is nature’s way of keeping the best fit-to-live things alive, and so on continue to the next generations.

For example, if a rabbit has a limp, it is bound to be out run and eaten by a predator relatively early in its life (unless it is extremely lucky.) Because of this, it is unable to reproduce, and there genes that it contained to have its limp are unable to spread through inheritance. Natural selection goes both ways. For example, if a hawk has very god vision, it will be able to scope out its prey easily, so it will thrive. Therefore, when it produces offspring of its own, its trait of good eyesight will pass on to its offspring.

So, as enough time goes on, the bad traits will be weeded out and the good ones will remain.

What would happen if someone stabbed your leg with a syringe full of calcium and injected the calcium directly into your muscle?

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Cross-bridges would form in the absence of an action potential from a motor neuron.

Explanation:

The injected calcium ions would bind to troponin. Troponin would make tropomyosin move away from the myosin-binding sites on actin. The presence of free binding sites on the actin would be followed by the contraction cycle. This would include hydrolysis of ATP to energize myosin heads and binding of these heads to actin to form cross-bridges. Therefore, cross-bridge formation would occur without any action potential if calcium ions are injected directly into the muscle.
