<span>There are numerous proteins in muscle. The main two are thin actin filaments and thick myosin filaments. Thin filaments form a scaffold that thick filaments crawl up. There are many regulatory proteins such as troponin I, troponin C, and tropomyosin. There are also proteins that stabilize the cells and anchor the filaments to other cellular structures. A prime example of this is dystrophin. This protein is thought to stabilize the cell membrane during contraction and prevent it from breaking. Those who lack completely lack dystrophin have a disorder known as Duchene muscular dystrophy. This disease is characterized by muscle wasting begininng in at a young age and usually results in death by the mid 20s. The sarcomere is the repeating unit of skeletal muscle. 

Muscle cells contract by interactions of myosin heads on thick filament with actin monomers on thin filament. The myosin heads bind tightly to actin monomers until ATP binds to the myosin. This causes the release of the myosin head, which subsequently swings foward and associates with an actin monomer further up the thin filament. Hydrolysis and of ATP and the release of ADP and a phosphate allows the mysosin head to pull the thick filament up the thin filament. There are roughly 500 myosin heads on each thick filament and when they repeatedly move up the thin filament, the muscle contracts. There are many regulatory proteins of this contraction. For example, troponin I, troponin C, and tropomyosin form a regulatory switch that blocks myosin heads from binding to actin monomers until a nerve impulse stimulates an influx of calcium. This causes the switch to allow the myosin to bind to the actin and allows the muscle to contract. </span><span>

1. Name three types of evidence used to support the theory of evolution
Llana [10]

Answer:

1) Fossil evidence Support

2)Genetic evidence supports evolution.

Biological evidence supports evolution;

Explanations;

1)Fossil evidence Support evidence;

This gives the geographic information about many fossils, it gives evidence that two species with a common ancestor can have their development differently and in

different locations. The common ancestor term is crucial especially in

theory of natural selection . In this evidence there is prove that common ancestor is shared through comparison between modern plants and modern algae to fossil algae by scientist.

Examples are bones, exoskeletons, stone imprints of microbes as well as animals.

2)Genetic evidence supports evolution.

This provides the understanding of how traits are passed from one generation to another under the study of DNA, DNA which contains the information needed by all organisms need to grow and to maintain themselves.geneticmaterial are passed to offspring by parent during reproduction. There are code which is made up of different chemical sub unit known as base. posses by DNA that helps to to function properly.

represented by letter A, T, C, and G.

3)Biological evidence supports evolution;

In this evidence, details about how evolution can be observed within the physical structures of adult organisms. is provided. It is evidence that involves of structural evidence such as vestigial structure which means an organisms with organs and similar structures with different functions.

For Example, considering the bodies of whales which is an organisms,there are small leg bones that are vestigial.

What is the relationship between "seeing" with the eye and "perciving" with the brain
NISA [10]

Answer:

Our eyes can trick our brain in some manner. When the eye see an image, our brain assumes that the image being seen is a image which had been seen in the past. Therefore, our brain is tricked into believing that the image which is being seen is of something which has been visualized before whereas in actual it is a new image. Hence, this is the relationship between seeing of the eyes and perceiving of the brain.
