Biology
1 answer:
Gekata [30.6K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Fungi play a crucial role in the balance of ecosystems. They colonize most habitats on earth, preferring dark, moist conditions. They can thrive in seemingly-hostile environments, such as the tundra. However, most members of the Kingdom Fungi grow on the forest floor where the dark and damp environment is rich in decaying debris from plants and animals. In these environments, fungi play a major role as decomposers and recyclers, making it possible for members of the other kingdoms to be supplied with nutrients and to live.

The neuromuscular junction is a well-studied example of a chemical synapse. Which of the following statements describes a critic
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

A- Acetylcholine is released by axon terminals of the motor neuron.

Explanation:

The general mechanism of muscle contraction can be explained as follows:

a) The action potential which is generated, travels along the motor nerve to its ends on muscle fiber (or motor end plate) at the neuro-muscular junction.

b) The nerve endings then secrete small amounts of neurotransmitter called acetylcholine.

c) The actylecholine binds to the receptors on the membrane of muscle fiber and opens the voltage gated sodium channels.

d) Opening of these channels leads to flow of large quantities of sodium ions into the muscle fiber which ultimately results in initiation of action potential in muscle fiber.  

e) This action potential depolarizes the fiber including the T-tubules, triggering the release of calcium ions from sarcoplasmic reticulum.

f) The calcium ions thus released initiated the process of muscle contraction.

Cyanobacteria and purple sulfur bacteria both obtain energy from light. however, only the ________ are capable of releasing ____
kap26 [50]

Answer: Cyanobacteria, oxygen

Cyanobacteria also known as Cynophyta and blue green algae. It is a phyllum of bacteria that produces it's own food like plants by the process of photosynthesis. It is found in freshwater lakes, damp soils, oceans, moistened rocks and even in animal fur. The purple sulfur bacteria belongs to the group of Proteobacteria. It is an anaerobic bacteria. It is found in hot springs, and stagnant water. It is a photosynthesizing bacterial strain like Cyanobacteria but it does not utilize water to be reduced in the photosynthesis process like in Cynobacteria, to produce oxygen.

Hence, only the <u>Cyanobacteria</u> are capable of releasing <u>oxygen</u>.
