Answer:

provide a means of rapidly transmitting the action potential from the surface into the central portions of the muscle fiber

Explanation:

T-tubules or Transverse tubules are the tube-like structures present in the muscle fibers.

The T tubules are formed by the modification in the plasma membrane of the cell and therefore arise from the surface of the muscle cell.  The T tubules then pass through the muscle and enter the inner core of the muscle that is near to the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

The main function of the T tubules is to carry forward the action potential from the synaptic junction to the muscle where it triggers the release of the calcium from the muscle.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

The triose phosphate produced by photosynthesis can be used to form macromolecules needed by the plant to grow. The formation of
Triss [41]

The formation of macromolecules from triose phosphate is likely anabolic and would be coupled to ATP -> ADP.

Anabolic is a group of metabolic pathways that builds compounds out of smaller building blocks. These reactions, which are often referred to as endergonic processes, demand energy. Catabolism is the breakdown component of metabolism, whereas anabolism is the building component. Typically, anabolism and biosynthesis go hand in hand. Anabolism can be seen in the growth of muscle mass and the mineralization and development of bones. Proteins are broken down into amino acids during catabolic events, as are glycogen and triglycerides into glucose and fatty acids, respectively. Fundamentally, catabolism entails disassembling complex molecules to produce energy that may be utilised by the organism. By building larger, more complex molecules from smaller, simpler ones, anabolism is the exact reverse of catabolism. The body typically stores them for later use.

"Over the past few decades, researchers have observed declining numbers in two species of penguins native to the West Antarctic
Naya [18.7K]
There are a few very good reasons why the change in the ice mass results in a decline in the populations of penguins. One reason is the penguins food source grows and develops under the the ice masses. Another reason is a loss of habitat for the penguins. When there is less ice, there are fewer krill for the penguins to eat.

Which factor causes the shapes of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids to differ?
kondor19780726 [428]
Whether or not the fatty acid has double or single covalent bonds

a fatty acid is saturated when only single bonds to H hold it together

a fatty acid is unsaturated when a double bond helps hold it together, this type of fatty acid becomes bent as a result
