Which body system initiates the process of muscle contraction

Biology
1 answer:
hichkok12 [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Nervous System

Explanation:

"Muscle contraction begins when the nervous system generates a signal. The signal, an impulse called an action potential, travels through a type of nerve cell called a motor neuron."

This is a type III hypersensitivity reaction mediated by immune complex deposits. Immune complexes are antigen-antibody (commonly IgG) complexes that are soluble and prone to deposition in multiple organs. Once immune complexes are deposited in an organ, neutrophils and macrophages will then attack the organ causing organ damage and eventually failure. Type III hypersensitivity reactions are characteristic in SLE and other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, etc.

Other types are type I hypersensitivity which are mediated by mast cells and histamine with the involvement of IgE and this commonly happens in allergic reactions. Type II hypersensitivity is cytotoxic hypersensitivity wherein antibodies directly attack organs (not forming immune complexes). Type IV hypersensitivity (or cell-mediated toxicity) involves T-lymphocytes. This is a delayed type of hypersensitivity exemplified by reactions from <em>M. tuberculosis</em> bacilli in tuberculous disease.

Answer:

1. mitochondria  

2. centrioles

3. lysosome

4. cytoplasm (cytosol)

5. nucleolus  

6. nuclear envelope

7. chromosomes

8. cilia

9. Rough endoplasmic reticulum

10. Golgi apparatus  

11. citoesqueleton  

12. vesicles

13. ribosomes

14. smooth endoplasmic reticulum

15. cell membrane  

Explanation:

Mitochondria are the energy centers of the cell that work to produce ATP. Centrioles are organelles composed of tubulin protein that organize microtubules that serve as the cell's skeletal system. Lysosomes are vesicles that contain hydrolytic enzymes. The cytosol is a thick solution inside the cell which is enclosed by the cell membrane. The nucleolus is an organelle inside the cell nucleus involved in the transcription of ribosomal RNAs. The nuclear envelope is a membrane that surrounds the cell nucleus (in eukaryotic organisms). Chromosomes are linear molecules composed of chromatin (DNA + histone proteins) which contain the genetic material of the cells. The cilia are organelles found on eukaryotic cells involved in the movement of the cell. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is an organelle whose function is the processing of proteins synthesized in the ribosomes, while the smooth endoplasmic reticulum functions in lipid synthesis. The Golgi apparatus is an organelle involved in transporting and packaging proteins and lipids. The cytoskeleton is a dynamic network of protein filaments that act as the skeleton of the cells. Vesicles are membrane-bound structures that transport substances in the cell. The cell membrane is a lipid bilayer that acts to transport nutrients into the cell and waste products out of the cell.
