Answer:

The salinity of water increases as you move from inland areas out towards to ocean.

Explanation:

Salinity refers to the concentration of salt in the water. The salinity of water increases as you move from inland areas out towards to ocean because the ocean has high salinity than the inland areas. That is it can be said that the ocean contains brackish water. Brackish water has more concentration of salt than freshwater.

If a drug that was an inhibitor of PP1 activity was ingested by a person
Reptile [31]

The correct answer is: Glycogen phosphorylase would remain phosphorylated and retain some activity.

Glycogen phosphorylase is directly involved in the regulation of glucose levels since it is a glucose sensor in liver cells: when glucose levels are low, phosphorylase is active and it has PP1 bound to it (phosphatase activity of PP1 is prevented). Therefore, there phosphorylase a will accelerate glycogen breakdown.

What are the two different results of a lack of calcium and a lack of atp?
liq [111]
<span>There are numerous proteins in muscle. The main two are thin actin filaments and thick myosin filaments. Thin filaments form a scaffold that thick filaments crawl up. There are many regulatory proteins such as troponin I, troponin C, and tropomyosin. There are also proteins that stabilize the cells and anchor the filaments to other cellular structures. A prime example of this is dystrophin. This protein is thought to stabilize the cell membrane during contraction and prevent it from breaking. Those who lack completely lack dystrophin have a disorder known as Duchene muscular dystrophy. This disease is characterized by muscle wasting begininng in at a young age and usually results in death by the mid 20s. The sarcomere is the repeating unit of skeletal muscle. 

Muscle cells contract by interactions of myosin heads on thick filament with actin monomers on thin filament. The myosin heads bind tightly to actin monomers until ATP binds to the myosin. This causes the release of the myosin head, which subsequently swings foward and associates with an actin monomer further up the thin filament. Hydrolysis and of ATP and the release of ADP and a phosphate allows the mysosin head to pull the thick filament up the thin filament. There are roughly 500 myosin heads on each thick filament and when they repeatedly move up the thin filament, the muscle contracts. There are many regulatory proteins of this contraction. For example, troponin I, troponin C, and tropomyosin form a regulatory switch that blocks myosin heads from binding to actin monomers until a nerve impulse stimulates an influx of calcium. This causes the switch to allow the myosin to bind to the actin and allows the muscle to contract. </span><span>
