Answer:

Doctors prescribe them to treat problems such as delayed puberty and other medical problems that cause the body to make very low amounts of testosterone. Steroids make muscles bigger and bones stronger. They also may cause puberty to start and can help some boys who have a genetic disorder to grow more normally.

Please also describe how actin-binding sites are made available for cross-bridging with myosin heads during contraction.
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: The calcium ion binds to troponin, and this slides the tropomyosin rods away from the binding sites.

Explanation:

Contraction and relaxation of muscle cells brings about movements of the body. The contractile myofilament called sarcomeres are bounded at each end by a dense stripe called the Z - line, to which the myosin fibres are attached, and lying in the middle of the sarcomere are the actin filaments, overlapping with the myosin.

When action potential spreads from the nerve along the sarcolemma (muscle cell membrane), it penetrates deep into the muscle cell through the sarcoplasm (cytoplasm of muscle cell), and releases CALCIUM from the intracellular stores.CALCIUM triggers the binding of myosin to the actin filament next to it forming CROSS BRIDGES.

For this to occur, ACTIN BINDING SITE has to be made available. TROPOMYOSIN is a protein that winds around the chains of the actin filament and covers the myosin-binding sites to prevent actin from binding to myosin. The first step in the process of contraction is for calcium ions to bind to troponin so that tropomyosin can slide away from the binding sites on the actin strands.

Coin flipping simulates the events of mitosis and the production of sperm or eggs
a_sh-v [17]
Coin flipping simulates the events of mitosis and the production of sperm. This is because females carry XX chromosomes so all eggs will have a singular X chromosome. It is the sperm that determines the sex of the foetus: males have XY chromosomes and therefore sperm will carry either X or Y chromosomes (a 50/50 chance, just like flipping a coin)

Explain what takes place in each step of the diagram
Andrei [34K]

The given image is showing the interaction of the enzyme and its substrate.

In the first part of the image, the enzyme and substrate are not bind together. They are present in close proximity. The enzyme shown in the picture have a site for the attachment of the substrates.

In the next picture, the interaction of the enzyme and the substrate has occurred, which resulted in the formation of the enzyme substrate complex. Hence, the given picture shows the interaction of an enzyme with the substrates.
