Answer:
A band - light central region of sarcomere.
Explanation:
Sarcomere is the basic structural unit of the skeletal muscles. These sarcomere shows striations ( light and dark bands) when veiw under the microscope.
A band or anisotropic band is the dark region of sarcomere. A band consists of both thick and thin filaments of actin and myosin proteins. The A band has the ability to refract light and appears dark.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
That depends on what you mean by ripples at the beginning of time. If you are referring to inflation of the universe caused by the Big Bang, and the subsequent "ripples", then those ripples are the leftover, background radiation from the event. If you are referring to ripples in space-time, then it still could have multiple meanings.
A protein may consist of as many as 5,000 a.a.ms.
Answer:
A
. proteins can take a variety of shapes, and nucleic acids tend to form linear chains
Explanation:
Proteins are consist of 50 and 2000 amino acid long and can take variety of shapes in living organisms. Two types of proteins that found in living cells are globular proteins and fibrous proteins and they have different shapes. Example of globular protein is hemoglobin and fibrous proteins are hair and nails, and collagen.
Nucleic acids tend to form linear chains from the monomers called nucleotides. Nucleotides have three components: nitrogenous base. phosphate group, and pentose sugar (5-carbon sugar) that together forms a definite linear shape. It is found in DNA of living organisms.
Hence, the correct option is "A
. proteins can take a variety of shapes, and nucleic acids tend to form linear chains".
