By using universal terms and anatomical position when identifying human body parts, there is very little room for error or confusion as to which part you are referring.
Answer:
<u>acetylcholine</u>
Explanation:
In the pre-synaptic knob there are vesicles which contain a transmitter substance called acetylcholine. When an impulse reaches the synaptic knob, it stimulates the vesicles to move towards the pre-synaptic membrane releasing the acetylcholine.
The transmitter substance makes the membrane permeable. The neuromuscular junction contains the sensory neurone(afferent), motor neurones(efferent) and the relay neurones(connector).
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-D.
Explanation:
Calcium plays an important role in muscle contraction as they are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum after they receive electric impulse.
Calcium triggers the muscle contraction cycle as these calcium ions bind to the troponin-tropomyosin complex. This binding exposes the myosin-binding site on the actin on which high energy myosin binds and cross-bridge is formed.
This cross-bridge formation causes the contraction of the sarcomere and therefore muscle contracts.
Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
Answer:
Explanation:
Glucose is a sugar, highly soluble in water because it has lots of polar hydroxyl groups (-OH) which can form hydrogen-bonds with water molecules. These types of bonds are intermolecular forces which are present in other macromolecules like the DNA or proteins.
Cholesterol and triglycerids are lipids. These have long chains of hydrocarbons, which are non polar and therefore insoluble in water.
Blood is made of a solid and a liquid part. <u>The solid part contains cells</u>. <u>The liquid part (plasma), is made of water, salts, and proteins</u>. Glucose and cholesterol/triglycerids travel in the liquid part of the blood, in an aqueous environment. Because the lipids are not soluble, they need to travel with a carrier protein that keeps them protected from the surrounding water.
