Answer:
5- action potential 6- receptors 7- calcium ions 8- sarcolemma
Explanation:
This description illustrates the pathway of a action potential traveling along a neuro-muscular junction. this functions as a chemical synapse between a motor neuron and a muscle fibre. It allow the motor neuron to transmit a signal/action potential to the muscle fiber, causing muscle contraction.
Work is said to be done when an object moves due to a force applied. Work is calculated by multiplying the force applied and the distance traveled due to the force. It is expressed as:
W = Force x distance
W = 84 J = F (7.0 m)
F = 12 N
Hope this answers the question.
Answer: It proposes that the entire double‑stranded DNA molecule serves as a template for a whole new molecule of DNA.
Explanation:
In semi-conservative DNA replication:
- a parent double-stranded DNA splits in two.
- Each strand serves as template, and then read by the enzyme, DNA polymerase, to ensure accurate synthesis of a new daughter strand for both
- the newly synthesized strand contains nucleotides that are complimentary to free nucleotides present in the parent strand.
Thus, because the parent double strand is retained in the newly synthesized DNA, this model is described as semi-conservative
Answer: a. Genetic recombination (crossing over)
b. Can also be explained in terms of crossing over
c. Non disjunction of homologous chromosomes in meiosis 1
Explanation:
The process that allows for the transfer of both the paternal and maternal materials to is the crossing over process that takes at meiosis 1 changing them to secondary spermatocytes. While they are still primary spermatocytes, they are still diploid cells having both the maternal and paternal chromosomes. But since the spermatozoon is an haploid cell, it is able to retail some of both parents chromosome by the crossing over event which takes place between homologous paternal and maternal chromosomes allowing them to exchange materials. Thus the chromosomal contents of the primary spermatocyte differs from that of the spermatozoon.
C. This can occur as a result of the one of the homologous chromosome pair refusing to separate at meiosis 1 with one gamete containing 4 chromosomes/8 sister chromatids and the second having 2 chromosomes/4 sister chromatids.
