The following is a list of the events that occur during a muscle contraction. What is the correct sequence of these events? 1. M

yosin cross-bridges bind to the actin. 2. The free myosin head splits ATP. 3. Calcium ion is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. 4. The myosin head pivots toward the center of the sarcomere. 5. Calcium ion binds to troponin. 6. The myosin head binds an ATP molecule and detaches from the actin.

Answer:

3, 5, 1, 4, 6, 2.

Explanation:

Muscle contraction refers to the actin sliding over myosin in muscle cells, allowing the body to move.

For muscle contraction to occur, three elements are required:

  • Nervous system stimulation;
  • Contractile proteins, actin and myosin;
  • Contraction energy provided by the ATP.

The whole process of muscle contraction happens as follows:

  1. Calcium ion is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
  2. Calcium ion binds to troponin.
  3. Myosin cross-bridges bind to the actin.
  4. The myosin head pivots toward the center of the sarcomere.
  5. The myosin head binds an ATP molecule and detaches from the actin.
  6. The free myosin head splits ATP.

A population of rabbits follows the typical pattern of inheritance and the law of dominance for fur color. B is the allele for b
Ostrovityanka [42]

The law of dominance states that the recessive genes are always masked by the dominant genes.

The genes for brown fur will mask those for white fur.

If there are 160 bunnies then 120 of them have brown fur and 40 have white fur.

Thus, 40 bunnies should be white according to the Punnett square.

ehidna [41]
A- the antlers and horns are structural adaptations. The fighting is a behavioral adaptation.
Antlers and horns are physical adaptations that some mammals have acquired over time. However, fighting is not a physical feature but a behavioral adaptation used to beat other males during mating season.

PFK can be allosterically inhibited by ATP at high concentrations. Which of the following is the benefit of regulating glycolysi
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The principle benefit of regulating glycolysis by the concentration of ATP is to signals the cell to stop glycolysis as sufficient amount of ATP is already present in the biological system.

Explanation:

Phosphofructokinase 1 is allosterically inhibited by ATP.Glycolysis is a catabolic as well as exergonic process which deals with the oxidation of glucose to form pyruvate along with ATP molecules.

            When ATP is present at high concentration within our body at that time there is no need to synthesize additional ATP because ATP is already present in sufficient amount.

       To maintain its own homeostasis ATP allosterically inhibit the catalytic activity of phosphofructokinase. As a result glycolysis is inhibited and the glucose molecule can be utilized in other metabolic pathways.
