Muscle cramps are caused when the muscle takes longer than normal to relax after a contraction. During contraction, the myosin heads attach on their binding sites on the actin filament and pulls on the filament hence shortening the sarcomeres. For the myosin head to release its binding site on the actin filament, ATP attaches to an active site on the myosin and is hydrolyzed to ADP and Pi. This causes relaxation after a contraction cycle. Cramps, therefore, may be due to depletion of ATP molecule in the muscles cells.
Another reason for cramps may be a high amount of calcium in the muscles that bind to troponin on the actin filaments. This exposes the myosin binding sites longer hence promotes the formation of cross-bridge even when the contraction of the muscle is not intended anymore.
Little food, limited oxygen in some areas, no sunlight, extreme cold temperatures
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-Yes--every species represents a resource that may be exploited by an array of parasites
Explanation:
Parasites are the organism which for survival depends on the resources of the host organism and utilize them to the extent that it could lead to the death of the host.
The interaction between the parasite and host proves harmful to the host but beneficial to the parasite.
A number of parasites exist for human species which can directly harm humans. Similarly, a large number of hosts exist for different species which belongs to another kingdom also like even the bacteria has a parasite called bacteriophage which utilizes the resources of the host.
This indicates that every species has some resources which can prove beneficial to another organism in the response of which they become host to a large number of parasites.
Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
