Concept explainers
(a)
To determine: The width of the A band if a muscle is contracted and shortened.
Concept introduction: Myofilaments within the myofibrils are organized in a continuous manner with cylindrical units called sarcomeres. Inside the skeletal muscle fibers, there are several repeating sarcomeres arranged within a section of myofibril. Overlapping of thick and thin filaments constitutes each sarcomere.
(b)
To determine: The width of the H zone if a muscle is contracted and shortened.
Concept introduction: Myofilaments within the myofibrils are organized in a continuous manner with cylindrical units called sarcomeres. Inside the skeletal muscle fibers, there are several repeating sarcomeres arranged within a section of myofibril. Overlapping of thick and thin filaments constitutes each sarcomere.
(c)
To determine: The relationship of the Z disks if a muscle is contracted and shortened.
Concept introduction: Myofilaments within the myofibrils are organized in a continuous manner with cylindrical units called sarcomeres. Inside the skeletal muscle fibers, there are several repeating sarcomeres arranged within a section of a myofibril. Overlapping of thick and thin filaments constitutes each sarcomere.
(d)
To determine: The width of the I band if a muscle is contracted.
Concept introduction: Myofilaments within the myofibrils are organized in a continuous manner with cylindrical units called sarcomeres. Inside the skeletal muscle fibers, there are several repeating sarcomeres arranged within a section of myofibril. Overlapping of thick and thin filaments constitutes each sarcomere.

- Biology Questionarrow_forward✓ Details Draw a protein that is embedded in a membrane (a transmembrane protein), label the lipid bilayer and the protein. Identify the areas of the lipid bilayer that are hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Draw a membrane with two transporters: a proton pump transporter that uses ATP to generate a proton gradient, and a second transporter that moves glucose by secondary active transport (cartoon-like is ok). It will be important to show protons moving in the correct direction, and that the transporter that is powered by secondary active transport is logically related to the proton pump.arrow_forwarddrawing chemical structure of ATP. please draw in and label whats asked. Thank you.arrow_forward
