A farmer stops cultivating a large tract of farmland and abandons it. the natural changes taking place soon afterwards, such as
erastovalidia [21]

<span>When a farmer stops cultivating farmland and abandons it, the growth of wild grasses and weeds can be considered secondary succession because of the presence of the existing soil. Secondary succession occurs in ecosystem when soil have been disturbed or disrupted by humans such in a way of farming.  Furthermore, the reason why it cannot be categorize as primary succession because primary succession only occurs in essentially lifeless areas, where soil is not capable of sustaining life. Specifically, this is called old-field succession where wild grasses and weeds represents a new plant species to colonize a bare soil after the farmer abandon the farmland.</span>

Let’s suppose a sheep that provided the oocyte for reproductive cloning was homozygous for a gene that causes a small head. This
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Small head

Explanation:

Since the genes are located in the nucleus of a cell which has being removed (but some genes are still located in the mitochondria of the ocyte) from its ocyte to fuse it with with another nucleus. Since the cell follows a maternal inheritance of gene, it would have a small head because of the presence genes in the mitochondria.

A tear in the right rib muscles has caused the muscles to spasm, meaning they are locked in a contracted state. How would this a
kramer
Answer:
            A tear in right rib muscles has caused the muscles to spasm it would prevent inspiration.

               As it is cleared that during inspiration, the intercostal muscles contract, the ribs move upward. the diaphragm flattens and move downward. As a result the chest cavity become open and air move into it. However if the muscles of rib tears then rib will not raise. As a result there will be difficulty in inspiration/

Cross bridge formation between myosin heads and actin molecules is caused by the elevation of calcium ion concentration in the c
Naily [24]

Answer:

by the sarcoplasmic reticulum's calcium ion pumps

Explanation:

Rigor mortis or postmortem rigidity, is a state caused by chemical changes in the muscles that occur post mortem and  cause the limbs of the corpse to stiffen.

This occurs because after death, there is no cellular respiration and consequently, no oxygen nor ATP (ATP is required for the muscle relaxation).

Calcium enters the cytosol after death because it is released due to the deterioration of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and due to the breakdown of the sarcolemma. Ca2+ ions activate the formation of actin-myosin cross-bridging necessary for the contraction. Muscles are unable to relax, because myosin heads continue to bind with the active sites of actin and there is no ATP to destabilize the myosin-actin bond.
