You wish to study the impact of synthetic estrogen like hormones on the health of whales (and people). Select the organism from

the table below that would be best to use in your research. Why did you select this organism?
Model Organism Characteristics

Yeast------------------Single celled, eukaryotic (contains a nucleus)
Fruit fly---------------Multicellular, eukaryotic, invertebrate, arthropod
Zebrafish-------------Multicellular, eukaryotic, vertebrate, fish
Mouse-----------------Multicellular, eukaryotic, vertebrate, mammal


Fruit flies, because they are multicellular like whales
Mouse, because they are mammals like whales
Yeast, because they are eukaryotic like whales
Zebrafish, because they live in the water like whales

Answer:

Because humans are multicellular, eukaryotic (contains a nucleus), vertebrates, and mammals, the best organism to test the synthetic hormones on would be a mouse.

Explanation:

Humans and whales are multicellular (they have many cells) and their cells are eukaryotic (contain a nucleus). They also have a backbone (spinal column), which makes them a vertebrate. Finally, all humans and whales are mammals. Therefore, to get the best results, the testing should be performed on a mouse.

  • Performing the experiment on yeast would give good results for singular-celled organisms, like <em>protozoa</em>.
  • Performing the experiment on a fruit fly would give good results for multicellular invertebrates, like <em>spiders</em>.
  • Performing the experiment on zebrafish would give good results for all fish in general.

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

The prolonged electrical depolarization of cardiac muscle cells -that occurs during contraction- is due primarily to the persistent influx of calcium ion

Explanation:

The action potential of the heart muscle is longer with respect to skeletal muscle (around 300 milliseconds), and this is due to the activity of calcium (Ca⁺⁺ ) in the intracellular compartment.

The initial depolarization of cardiac muscle fiber depends on the entry of sodium (Na⁺) into the cell. However, for the action potential to occur and be maintained, Ca⁺⁺  must increase its cytoplasmic levels, which depends on:

  1. The increase in intracellular sodium induces the release of Ca⁺⁺ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
  2. Calcium entry from the extracellular space through the voltage dependent Ca⁺⁺ channels.
  3. The entry of extracellular Ca⁺⁺ causes the release of more Ca⁺⁺ ions by the sarcoplasmic reticulum, further increasing its intracellular concentration.

This is how the ion that guarantees the duration of the action potential of the cardiac muscle cell is the Ca⁺⁺.
