Smooth muscles depolarize as a result of a transmembrane current of Calcium ions. When an action potential depolarizes the muscle cell membrane, it also travels into the body of the cell via the t-tubules. Unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle is dependent in two sources of calcium in order to intiate contraction. These two sources are calcium sequestered in the S.R. of the smooth muscle cell.
Answer: Does height affect the strong force acting on a moving
Answer:
D) Folded mountain with jagged, rough edges
Explanation:
The incident which happened some fifty million years ago was the collision of the Indian plates and the Eurasian plates thus giving rise to the folded mountains that are characteristic of the Himalayas. Subduction was not possible when these two plates collided because they had the same density.
So, the force with which the two plates collided resulted in the formation of folded mountains that rose upward. The peaks of these mountains were jagged, rough, and uneven.
Glucose gets into the cells through a process called facilitated diffusion. This is a transport mechanism in which carrier proteins shuttle molecules across the cell membrane without using the cell's energy supplies and so it is called passive transport. The carrier proteins bind to glucose, which causes them to change shape and translocate the glucose from outside of the cell membrane and into the cell.
(a) glucose is important because it is the primary source of energy for the cell.
(b) Glucose is 6 - carbon monomer of starch. It is a sugar.
(c) Glucose is broken down to pyruvate through the process of glycolysis.
