Which of the following is/are true?
dem82 [27]

Answer: option B) Sympatric speciation is best described as a random event that disrupts the allele frequencies in a population

Explanation:

Sympatric speciation is an event/situation whereby organisms of the same species:

- live in the same territory or nearby territories ( i.e do not live in geographical isolation)

- DO NOT interbreed, but select a sexual mate from a much diverse territory to yield new species or offsprings.

This sexual selection then results in generations of offsprings that are genetically different from the rest of the same species due to uneven gene flow or disruption of alleles among the population of same species.

Thus, only option B is true.

You measure levels of Ca2+ in various locations within a motor neuron and a skeletal muscle fiber when the motor neuron is NOT d
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The correct answer is 3: "<em>High levels of Ca2+ are expected to be found </em><em>within the sarcoplasmic reticulum</em>".

Explanation:

Muscular contraction is a highly regulated process that depends on free calcium concentration in the cytoplasm. Amounts of cytoplasmic calcium are regulated by <u>sarcoplasmic reticulum</u> that functions as a storage of the ion.

When a nerve impulse reaches the membrane of a muscle fiber, through acetylcholine release,  the membrane depolarizes producing the entrance of calcium from <u>extracellular space</u>. The impulse is transmitted along the membrane to the sarcoplasmic reticulum, from where calcium is released.  At this point, <em>tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament</em>. The calcium channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum controls the ion release, that activates and regulates muscle contraction, by increasing its cytoplasmic levels. When <em>calcium binds to the troponin C</em>, <em>the troponin T alters the tropomyosin by moving it and then unblocks the binding sites,</em> making possible the formation of <em>cross-bridges between actin and myosin filaments.</em> When myosin binds to the uncovered actin-binding sites, ATP is transformed into ADP and inorganic phosphate.

Z-bands are then pulled toward each other, thus shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, and producing muscle fiber contraction.

You are given a task to produce massive quantities of Protein A from soybean so that the Protein A can be added to a mixture to
kiruha [24]

Producing 100 kg of protein A requires calculating the necessary amount of soy, calculating the necessary inputs, looking for related information, and supervising the process.

To produce 100 kg of protein A with soybeans, I must look for information related to the cultivation of soybeans, what is the protein concentration in a soybean, and other aspects necessary for its maintenance and harvest.

In this search, I find that soy has a protein concentration of 50% or higher, so if I have to get 100 kg of protein, I must get at least 200 kg of soy.

So I grow some soybean plants in pots inside my house and I harvest their grains until I complete 200kg, supervising the whole process so that the plant does not suffer any disease or problem.
