Chapter 50.6, Problem 2CC
MAKE CONNECTIONS. Ø Peristalsis contributes to the locomotion of many annelids and to the movement of food in the digestive tract (see Concept 41.3). Using the muscles of your hand and a toothpaste tube as a model of peristalsis, how would your demonstration differ for the two processes?

Salmoneus dies.When a cell dies its plasma membrane becomes“leaky”;i.e.,it becomes permeable to ions that were unable to freely cross the membrane during life. Thus, after death, calcium ions leak across the sarcolemma of muscle fibers. This calcium leak causes rigor mortis, a temporary stiffness of the muscles after death. Apply your understanding of the mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction (specifically regarding events within muscle fibre) and explain the molecular basis of the phenomenon known as rigor mortis.

Bile contains salts of bile acids, in particular, glycocholic and taurocholic. They reduce the surface tension of water and thereby contribute to the emulsification of fats, which facilitates the enzymatic cleavage of lipids. Further, in the of digestion, bile acids form micelles with lipids and their cleavage products, due to process Img. 19. Micelle structure which fats can be absorbed.

Researchers have found that Na*/K* - ATPase is found in two different kinds of cells in the gill tissue. One type is found in the filament bases that appear to be active when salmon are adults only. The other types of cells are found in the lamellae folds and appear to be active during its juvenile stages. Speculate on these findings as to how this allows salmon to complete their unique life cycle.arrow_forwardplease show steps. Please be clear as possible. Thank you !!!arrow_forward
