Answer:

e. bind to troponin which moves the tropomyosin.

Explanation:

Troponin (Tn) is a protein complex composed of three different proteins: troponin C (TnC), troponin I (TnI), and troponin T (TnT). This complex is found both in skeletal muscles and cardiac muscles, where TnC attaches calcium ions through four and three calcium ion-binding sites, respectively. When a muscle is relaxed, Tn attaches to tropomyosin to prevent muscle contraction. During muscle contraction, calcium channels open and cytosolic calcium ions bind to TnC, thereby Tn changes its conformation and moves the tropomyosin. This process relieves the inhibition of the interaction between actin and myosin filaments, which makes muscle contraction possible.

Tanya [424]
Mmm idk why either. Evolution is not proven as no one kept apes and see it grow into a human. It doesn't really make sense too. Animals don't have moral judgement, and can't create and understand images of art and drawing. It is weird if apes somehow adopts the abilities and become a human.
