In cardiac muscle
a. an action potential spreads throughout the Z discs.
b. intercalated discs connect the muscle fibers together.
c. calcium enters the cell from storage chambers called intercalated discs.
d. potassium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Answer:
b. intercalated discs connect the muscle fibers together.
Explanation:
Intercalated discs are components of the muscles found in the heart(cardiac muscles).
Intercalated discs join the cardiomyoctes (muscle cells or fibers) together so that they can function as one and transmit signals amongst themselves during the contraction of the heart.
Intercalated discs are made of up desmosomes and gap junctions.
Intercalated discs are found on the lining of the sacromere and can only be seen by using a microscope to observe the longitudinal section of the heart tissue.
The answer is; D
A balanced equation is one that observes the law of thermodynamics on the conservation of matter and energy. Matter or energy cannot be created or destroyed but can only be transformed.
In this equation, therefore, the number of elements on the right side of the equation should match those of the left side. Of the choice equations, this is a balanced one; 6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 and one that reflects the process of photosynthesis.
If not multiple choice, Probably insects and humans would last the longest
