Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"If a connective tissue disease was adversely affecting the sarcolemma, what symptoms might be presented? The patient’s muscles would not be able to receive the nerve stimuli needed for a muscle contraction. The patient’s muscles would not be able to store the calcium ions needed for a muscle contraction. The patient’s muscles would not have the blood supply needed for a muscle contraction. The patient’s muscles would be fragile and unable to stand the force of a muscle contraction"

Answer:

The patient’s muscles would not be able to receive the nerve stimuli needed for a muscle contraction.

Explanation:

Sarcolema is the layer that lines the muscle fiber. The Sarcolema at each end attaches to the tendon, which in turn attaches to the bone. We must remember that in sarcolemma there are receptors that receive the signal from the motoneuron for the depolarization of the muscle fiber to occur.

As we were able to understand the importance of the sarcolemma and we will conclude that if a connective tissue disease was adversely affecting the sarcolemma, the patient's muscles would not be able to receive the nerve stimuli necessary for muscle contraction

Suppose a one-year old child is playing with a toy near an electrical out-let. He sticks part of the toy into the outlet. He get

Papessa [141]

Answer:

UCS: sticks part of the toy into the electrical outlet

UCR: frightened and crying

CS: toy

CR: frightened to toy

Explanation:

Classical conditioning is a form of learning whereby a conditioned stimulus becomes associated with an unrelated unconditioned stimulus, in order to produce a behavioral response known as a conditioned response.

Unconditioned stimulus (UCS) is an agent that leads to a response without training. In this example, the child won't know that he can have electrical shock playing with toys.

Unconditioned response (UCR) is an automatic response to a UCS that's why the child starts crying and frightened.

Conditioned stimulus (CS) is a former natural stimulus that comes to elicit a given response after pairing with a UCS. In this situation, CS is when mom gives the same toys to the baby that was the reason for electrical shock.

Conditioned response (CR) is a learned response to a CS because the baby shows fear when he saw the same toys. It is his learned behavior.

What uses mutation rates in dna to estimate the time that two species have been evolving independently.?

pashok25 [27]

Hi, the answer to this question would be an Molecular Clock. A molecular clock is a technique used by researchers that uses mutation rates in DNA to estimate the length of time that two species have been evolving independtly. Hope this helped :)
