Answer: The correct answer is  A) The muscle contracts.

During muscle contraction, the thin filaments ( actin filaments) slide pass over the thick filaments ( myosin) and the sarcomere ( unit of muscle contraction ) becomes short. This is explained through sliding filament theory.  

Supply of energy in the form of ATP is very important for the contraction of muscle.

The role of ATP is to prepare myosin for its  binding with actin by moving it to a state that has higher- energy. The thin filaments slide over the thick filaments and the contraction of muscle takes place.

What is the name of the oxidized form doesn't have h attached of the electron carrier in photosynthesis?
KiRa [710]
In photosynthesis, an electron carrier of the light cycles is the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate or NADP. This is the oxidized form, because the reduced form of this carrier has the extra H (NADPH). This is somehow related to the electron carrier called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide or NAD (minus the phosphate).
