Describe the interactions of the nervous and muscular system

Biology
1 answer:
Svet_ta [14]3 years ago
7 0

The human body comprises of more than 600 muscles differentiated in three classifications, and all are under the control of the nervous system. The activities like picking up a dropped pen or leaning over incorporate the combined effort of various muscle groups.  

The alert mind relays this instruction to the central nervous system that conducts it in the form of electrical impulses. These are then mediated via the somatic segment of the peripheral nervous system to the nerves accountable for monitoring the essential muscles.  

When the signals arrive, a chemical known as acetylcholine gets discharged from the nerve terminals, activating the membranes of muscle fibers and making them to contract. The receptors present in the muscles provide the brain with the instruction regarding the movement and position of the body, the brain monitors the contraction of skeletal muscles.

Ugo [173]

Correct answer: Glycogen  

Glycogen is a form of polysaccharide of glucose molecule which serve as energy storage unit in the humans. The excess glucose in the body is stored in the form of glycogen in the muscles and the liver.

The muscles can store upto 500 gram of glycogen and liver can store 100 gram of glucose. Therefore, any carbohydrate which is consumed beyond this limit are converted to and stored as fat.

Glycogen that are stored in muscle are broken down into glucose while  the liver cell glycogen are broken down into glucose as a circulating energy source to be used by the body.

Answer:

The diploid snail with 22 chromosomes will undergo meiosis (reduction division) to produce a gamete with reduced number of chromosomes (by half) i.e. 11 chromosomes. This means that after meiosis, each haploid gamete (sperm and egg) will contain 11 chromosomes each.

What is the source of energy that powers a hydroelectric power plant?
Verdich [7]

Answer:  Given your four choices, the best/most correct one would be (c) the sunlight that evaporated water that eventually falls as rain and fills the reservoir. It is the potential energy stored in the reservoir water which is "released" as it is converted to kinetic energy (the movement of water which spins the hydroelectric generator turbine, etc.), but the absolute source of that original potential energy comes from the Sun's action to evaporate lake or ocean water which is returned to Earth as rain ... and it is this rainwater which ultimately fills the reservoir behind the hydroelectric power plant.
