Answer:

3. Cardiac muscle cells - are used to help the heart beat and pump blood.

2. Smooth muscle cells- are used in the digestion of food.

1. Skeletal muscle cells- are involved in movements of the skeleton (bones).

Explanation:

There are three types of muscle cells - skeletal, cardiac and smooth.

  • <em>The skeletal muscle cells </em>are the ones that form the muscle and help to contract and relax. The muscles for movement to take place. these are voluntary muscles and appears striated when viewed under a microscope.
  • <em>The cardiac muscles</em> are the ones that are found in the heart and are involved in the contraction of the heart for pumping the blood and making the heartbeat. These are involuntary muscles and appear striated under the microscope.
  • The smooth muscles are the ones that are used to control the involuntary movements in the body except for the heart. Since digestion involves involuntary muscles these are located in the walls of the digestive organs such as stomach and intestine. These muscle cells are non-striated.

Genotype. A human being's genome is made up of approximately 3 billion base pairs which make up about 2000 genes. Individuals, however, differ slightly in the sequence of their DNA in some regions. This unique genome identity is the indivudual genotype. Sequence of DNA in a genome can nowadays be determined through sequencing using Next Generation Sequencing machines

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Sperm undergo more mitotic cellular divisions than egg and therefore have a higher risk of developing a spontaneous mutation.

As noted from the explanation given above...in the process of development in males, the sperm cells always undergo many mitotic cellular division throughout their life increasimg the males' chances of undergoing spontaneous mutations as compared to the females during development where it gets to a certain point in their lives where they stop producing egg cells after the once division.

Thus, the continuous divisions undergone by the sperm cells acquire more spontaneous mutations on the cell that produces this lycantrophy trait.
