Phalloidin is a toxin from a toadstool (mushroom). You are studying actin dynamics and the effect of phalloidin. You add G-actin

and ATP to a test tube and allow the reaction to come to equilibrium. This produces the light scattering plot below. When you add phalloidin, what will happen to the line?

Answer:

Dissociation of actin subunits occurs.

Explanation:

When we add phalloidin to a solution containing G-actin, the phalloidin binds to actin filaments more tightly as compared to actin monomers which leads to a decrease in the constant rate of dissociation of actin subunits from the ends of the filament. This dissociation stabilizes the actin filaments through the prevention of filament depolymerization. So we can conclude that addition of phalloidin to actin leads to stabilizing of actin filaments.

An individual’s EKG shows changes in atrial contraction. Which image shows contraction of the atria?
Jlenok [28]

The right answer is The first image (the left one).

An atrium is an upper cavity of the heart, delimited by a thin wall, receiving blood from the bloodstream. There are two in the human heart, they allow the passage of blood from the veins (cellars and lungs) to the ventricles (right and left).

In its upper part (near the entrance of the superior vena cava) is located the sinus node, microscopic structure from which the electrical impulse which ensures the contraction of the heart (especially atrium) ...

The depolarization of the action potential is conducted step by step in the cells of the right and left atria, accompanied by a contraction of the muscle fibers.
