Answer:
1. Weaker contraction:
a. Potassium accumulate in the sarcoplasm
d. Begin contractions with muscle already 50% contraction
e. Lower sarcoplasm pH
g. Circular arrangement of muscle fascicles
2. Stronger Contraction
b. Increase in muscle belly circumference
c. Lesser proportion of motor neurons to muscle fibres
f. Increased stimulus frequency.
h. increased requirement.
Explanation:
Sarcoplasm refers to the cytoplasm of muscle cells which contains ATP, enzymes, and a variety of ions, including potassium (K+). The negative potential required during muscle activity is produced from the disequilibrium of ionic concentrations (mostly Na+ and K+) across the membrane, which is generated through Na+/K+ ATPase pumps. During contraction, a muscle shortens, and thus its circumference increases. The generation of lactic acid is known to lower pH in the sarcoplasm and thus hinder the force and power development of the muscle fibers. Muscle fascicles can be arranged in concentric rings, it is a common pattern in sphincter muscles that modulate the opening and closing of orifices (which have weak contractions). A motor unit refers to a single efferent neuron and all of the muscle fibers it modulates. Each individual muscle fiber is innervated by one motor neuron, whereas a single motor neuron can innervate many muscle fibers. Finally, higher intensity/frequency are known to induce stronger muscular contractions, but also produce a stronger decline in force and cause more rapid muscle fatigue.
Why do some people argue that scientists should not use embryonic stem cells in medical research?
A. They think research conducted on these stem cells is not applicable to adults.
B. They think the use of these stem cells is too expensive.
C. They think the use of these stem cells is the same as ending a life.
D. They think research conducted on these stem cells is too difficult.
[tex] \huge \rm \pink{answer}[/tex]
D. They think research conducted on these stem cells is too difficult.
They argue because they think the use of these stem cells is the same as ending a life. Therefore, option C is correct.
This viewpoint is rooted in ethical and moral concerns. Embryonic stem cells are obtained from human embryos, usually from unused embryos created during in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures. Opponents argue that using these stem cells for research purposes involves the destruction of potential human life since the embryos are destroyed in the process of harvesting the cells.
The ethical debate surrounding embryonic stem cell research centers on the question of when life begins and whether it is ethically justifiable to use human embryos for scientific purposes.

A researcher wanted to create a loss of function mutation for studying Type I Diabetes in a model animal. What mutation would mimic Type I diabetes?
a) Inhibition of sugar absorption in the small intestine
b) Inhibition of pancreatic beta-cells
c) Up regulation of insulin receptors on the pancreas
d) Down regulation of GLUT4 transporters in muscles
Answer:
The correct answer is: b) Inhibition of pancreatic beta-cells.
Explanation:
Type 1 Diabetes is a form of Diabetes Mellitus, a condition characterized by chronic hyperglycemia (high blood sugar levels) that can compromise many organs and even cause death if not treated properly.
The most common form of Diabetes Mellitus is Type 2 Diabetes, in which the pancreas produces insulin but cannot reach the target organs because of a pathologic state called Insulin Resistance.
Type 1 Diabetes, instead, is present in patients that cannot produce insulin on their own. Insulin is the most important hormone in the regulation of blood sugar - it is secreted by the pancreatic beta-cells when glycemia rises (which is normal after eating) and it is key in allowing glucose to reach the tissues where it's needed for energy requirements. Type 1 Diabetes is usually diagnosed in young, even pediatric, patients - the pancreatic beta-cells in these individuals are destroyed and unable to function (the reason for this is not clear in all cases), so they have to be administered with exogenous insulin to survive.
For the model animal to better represent Type 1 Diabetes, the mutation would have to inhibit pancreatic beta-cells.

Luke was Isked to find the median of the following
numbers:
16, 24, 12, 7, 30, 11,22
The work below shows the steps he used.
X X 16 22 24 30
What error did Luke make?
O He forgot to put the numbers in order first.
O He crossed off the low and high pairs incorrectly.
O He left out a number when putting the numbers in
order.
O He did not make an error.
16 + 22 = 38
2 2
16 22 = 38
19
Answer:
He left out a number when putting the numbers in order.
Explanation:
To find the median of a set of numbers, first arrange the numbers in order from least to greatest. Then begin crossing numbers of from each side at the same time.
Luke did not cross numbers off from each side, but only crossed them off from the left side. He also skipped a number, given there are only 2 "X's."
The list should look like so:
7, 11, 12, 16, 22, 24, 30
There should be three numbers before 16, not two as he has listed.

Andrew is trying to identify an unknown element. The element is dull and
brittle, and it is a poor thermal and electrical conductor. Where on the periodic
table is this element most likely found?
Answer:
non metals
Explanation:
While alive, an organism absorbs (radioactive) carbon 14 at such a rate that the proportion of carbon 14 in the organism remains at a known constant level. When it dies, it no longer absorbs carbon 14, so its proportion of carbon 14 begins to decrease. The half-life of carbon 14 is 5,600 years. A human skeleton is discovered whose level of carbon 14 is 15% that of a living human. To the nearest 100 years, how long ago did the person die
Answer:
The person has been dead for approximately 15,300 years
Explanation:
Available data:
The half-life of carbon 14 is 5,600 yearsThe human skeleton level of carbon 14 is 15% that of a living humanTo answer this question we can make use of the following equation
Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = - λ T₁
Where,
C14 T₀ ⇒ Amount of carbon in a living body at time 0 = 100%C14T₁ ⇒ Amount of carbon in the dead body at time 1 = 15% λ ⇒ radioactive decay constant = (Ln2)/T₀,₅T₀,₅ ⇒ The half-life of carbon 14 = 5600 yearsT₀ = 0T₁ = ???Let us first calculate the radioactive decay constant.
λ = (Ln2)/T₀,₅
λ = 0.693/5600
λ = 0.000123
Now, let us calculate the first term in the equation
Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = Ln (15%/100%) = Ln 0.15 = - 1.89
Finally, let us replace the terms, clear the equation, and calculate the value of T₁.
Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = - λ T₁
- 1.89 = - 0.000123 x T₁
T₁ = - 1.89 / - 0.000123
T₁ = 15,365 years
The person has been dead for approximately 15,300 years

Complete each of the sentences with the correct word or words regarding the function and structure of nails.
a. Nails are a scalelike modification of the __________layer of the _________
b. Nails form on the _______edges of the fingers and the toes.
c. Fingernails _________digits from damage protect the
1. stratum corneum
2. do
3. dermis
4. do not
5. ventral
6. epidermis
7. dorsal
Answer:
a. nails are a scalelike modification of the stratum corneum layer of the epidermis
b. nails form on the dorsal edges of the fingers and toes
c. fingernails do protect the digits from damage
Explanation:
The stratum corneum consists of the top layer of the epidermis (i.e., skin). Nails represent a modification of the epidermis and they are composed of densely packed dead skin cells (keratinocytes), which are rich in a protective protein called alpha-keratin. The nail plate is the hard keratinized part of the nail. The nail bed is the skin underneath the nail plate. The nails grow from the proximal portion of the nail bed, which is known as the nail matrix. The main function of the nails is to protect the tips of fingers and toes from injury.
The arctic fox has a diploid number of 50 an arctic fox was forming gametes by meiosis, how many chromosomes would be visible in prophase 17 Are the chromosomes replicated or non-replicated?
a. 2. 50; unreplicated
b. 28; replicated
c. 100, replicated
d. 25: unreplicated
e. 6.50; Replicated
Answer:
50 visible chromosomes and replicated.
Explanation:
Diploid number 50Haploid number 25When we talk about the cell cycle, we refer to the interphase and the cell division (mitosis or meiosis).
Interphase is composed of stages G1, S, and G2. During the S stage, the DNI replication process occurs. This is the only stage in which the DNI molecule replicates. The synthesis of histones and other associated proteins also occurs.
Meiosis occurs after the interphase is over.
Meiosis produces four daughter haploid cells (n) from a diploid germ cell (2n). Each daughter cell is haploid because they have half the number of chromosomes of the original one.
At the beginning of prophase 1, DNI is condensed in a well-defined chromosome formed by two sister chromatids joined by a centromere. Each chromosome carefully pairs with its homologous chromosome. Homologous chromosomes aline together to make the crossing-over possible, the stage where they interchange their parts.
The whole set of chromosomes is present in prophase 1. The reduction occurs later.
So if the germ cell has 50 chromosomes, the same 50 will be visible during prophase 1. DNA has already been replicated during the S stage of interphase.
Birds differ from their closest relatives, the reptiles, in what ways?
(choose all that apply)
the bones of reptiles are too lightweight to permit flight
birds are capable of powered flight, while some reptiles can glide
birds have feathers, reptiles have scales
only the birds lay eggs on land; the reptiles can only lay their eggs in water
the reptiles have a series of internal air sacs that allow a very efficient extraction of oxygen
birds are endothermic, while reptiles are generally ectothermic
1 pts
Answer:
birds have feathers, reptiles have scales
birds are endothermic, while reptiles are generally ectothermic
Explanation:
The main difference between birds and reptiles is that birds have feathers on their body while on the other hand, reptiles ahve dry skin and have scales. Reptiles are ectotherms, while birds are endotherms. An ectotherm relies on its external environment to regulate the temperature of its body whereas Endotherms are able to regulate their body temperatures by producing heat within the body.

Answer:
The curve that most closely describes the mean tempretire of the fluid as a function of position along the tube.
Explanation:
Hello. Your question is presenting very confusing words, however, through the context of the question as a whole, it is possible to see that you are saying that the water that enters a circular tube has a lower temperature than the temperature presented by the surface of the tube . In this case, if you are going to present a graph about this, it is important that this graph presents a curve that shows the relationship between the average water temperature as a function of the position of the water along the tube. This graph will be similar to the graph shown in the attached figure below.
