Answer:

A. S phase

Explanation:

The cell cycle involves all the series of division events that occurs to an organism. Cell division, which can be meiosis or mitosis, involves two main stages viz: Interphase and M phase.

Interphase describes the resting stage of the cell i.e. when the cell is not dividing. The cell uses this time to prepare itself for the next round of division. Interphase stage further consists of three main phases viz: G1, S and G2 phases.

In the S phase or synthesis phase of Interphase, the cell duplicates its genetic material (DNA). Hence, an onion cell observed by a student to have loosely coiled chromatin depicting DNA duplication is in the S-PHASE.

What biotic and abiotic factors are involved in determining an animal's niche?
Effectus [21]
The niche is considered an animals role in an environment. It describes not only the habitat that the animal lives in, but what the organism does within the habitat. All abiotic and biotic factors are included in a niche, including abiotic factors like the temperature the organism can survive in, as well as the amount of sunlight and water needed for the organism to survive. Biotic factors include what the food source is for the organism, and the predators of the organism.

The typical characteristics for binge-eating disorder include binge-eating episodes
Illusion [34]

Answer:

a) not accompanied by purging

Explanation:

  • If a person has episodes of uncontrollable eating then the person is said to have a problem of binge eating.
  • When a person shows a tendency of frequent and recurring binge eating then the person is said to have binge eating disorder.
  • Binge eating disorder is differentiated from another similar problem which is known as bulimia nervosa.
  • In the case of binge eating disorder a person has a tendency of binge eating but without purging, unlike bulimia nervosa where purging is a characteristic feature.
  • Purging is an attempt to get rid of the excess food consumed and this attempt is not made in case of binge eating.

When a muscle cell contracts, Group of answer choices the position of each myosin head is identical at any given moment. some my
White raven [17]

Answer:

When a muscle cell contracts, the myosin heads each produce a single power stroke.

Explanation:

In rest, attraction strengths between myosin and actin filaments are inhibited by the tropomyosin. When the muscle fiber membrane depolarizes, the action potential caused by this depolarization enters the t-tubules depolarizing the inner portion of the muscle fiber. This activates calcium channels in the T tubules membrane and releases calcium into the sarcolemma. At this point, <em>tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament</em>. When calcium binds to the troponin C, the troponin T alters the tropomyosin by moving it and then unblocks the binding sites. Myosin heads bind to the uncovered actin-binding sites forming cross-bridges, and while doing it ATP is transformed into ADP and inorganic phosphate which is liberated. Myofilaments slide impulsed by chemical energy collected in myosin heads, <u>producing a power stroke</u>. The power stroke initiates when the myosin cross-bridge binds to actin. As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP links to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament.  Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, which starts a new binding cycle to actin.  Z-bands are then pulled toward each other, thus shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, and producing muscle fiber contraction.
