The right option is a. contour interval
The difference in elevation between the highest and lowest contour lines on a topographical map is called contour interval.
A contour interval is the vertical distance between the two contour lines (highest and lowest) in a topographical map. The contour interval is usually stated explicitly on the right-hand lower part in every map. 20 feet for a 1:24,000 map scale is the frequently used contour interval and different contour intervals is available for different maps.
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.
Because it takes LOADS of feathers to make up 1kg and lead would be such a small amount, it could fit in a purse.
Hello,
Carbon dioxide enters plants through the plants' leaf.
Carbon Dioxide enters the leaf through the stomata, which are openings on the underside of the leaf where the exchange of gases occur. Stomata take in carbon dioxide and let out oxygen in the form of water vapour.
Faith xoxo
