Skeletal muscle cells exhibit a phenomenon known as recruitment, in which the number of muscle cells recruited to contract is pr

oportional to the strength of muscle contraction needed. In this way, we activate a few fibers to produce a small contraction to pick up a piece of paper and we activate many fibers to produce a larger contraction to pick up a textbook. Would you expect to see recruitment in cardiac muscle tissue

Answer:

No, cardiac muscle tissue does not exhibit recruitment.

Explanation:

The cardiac muscle tissue does not recruit cells to contract. The reason is that the cardiac muscle contracts all its cells at once and with the same force. It does not have to recruit other cells since it does not have to lift objects of different weights. The heart's contraction aims to pump blood and to do it rhythmically. The heart has a natural peacemaker, the sinoatrial node. The Sinoatrial node transmits an electrical impulse to all the heart to contract it all at the same time and continuously. For these reasons, the cardiac muscle does not need recruitment.

A plastic bottle contains 32.5 L of gas at a pressure of 45.7 kPa and
Monica [59]

Answer:

Final pressure, P2 = 362.26 kPa

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial volume = 32.5 Liters

Initial pressure = 45.7 kPa

Final volume = 4.1 Liters

To find the final pressure, we would use Boyle's law;

Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically, Boyles law is given by;

PV = K

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

45.7 * 32.5 = P_{2} * 4.1

1485.25 = 4.1P_{2}

P_{2} = \frac {1485.25}{4.1}

P_{2} = 362.26

Final pressure, P2 = 362.26 kPa

What happens to an animal cell in a hypertonic solution?
jarptica [38.1K]

<span>The answer is that cell will shrink.</span>

<span>If you put an animal cell in a hypertonic solution means that concentration of the solutes is greater outside the cell, in the solution, than in the cell. Consequently,</span> the water concentration of the cell's cytoplasm is higher than that of the hypertonic solution. Since the aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the cell, the water will exit the cell. The cell will lose water and, consequently, will shrink in size.
