Introduction:
There are three different types of muscle in the body, the cardiac, skeletal, and the smooth muscles. The muscles help in the movement of different body parts. They protect delicate organs from various injuries and provide shape to the body. The skeletal muscles particularly help in the movement of organs. There are 600 skeletal muscles in our body.

Answer to Problem 1TYK
Correct answer:
One body part rotates with respect to another body part.
Explanation of Solution
Justification/explanation for the correct answer:
Option (c) states that one part of the body may rotate with respect to another part. The skeletal muscles are attached to the bones from both sides of the muscles. Contraction in one muscle helps in the movement of different body parts. This depends on the point of attachment of the muscle. Hence, option (c) is correct.
Explanation for the incorrect answer:
Option (a) states that skeletal muscles are attached to bones with the help of ligaments. This statement is incorrect because skeletal muscles are attached to the bones with the help of cords of connective tissue known as tendons. So, it incorrect.
Option (b) states that bending of the vertebrate muscles do not extend the body parts. The extension of the body parts depends on the point of attachment of the vertebrate muscles to the bones by the tendons, so it extends the body parts according to the point of attachment. So, it incorrect.
Option (d) states that skeletal muscles are present in the walls of blood vessels and intestines. The smooth muscles are present in the walls of blood vessels, body cavities, and intestines. The skeletal muscle is stiff so it is not present in cavities or walls of blood vessels. So, it incorrect.
Option (e) states that cells of the skeletal muscles do not contain nuclei. This statement is incorrect because the nuclei are present in the cells of the skeletal muscles. It is also controlled by the somatic nervous system of our body so the nuclei must be present as it plays an important role in a cell. So, it incorrect.
Hence, options (a), (c), (d), and (e) are incorrect.
The skeletal muscles of our body are connected by tendons to different bones. The skeletal muscles help in the movement our body parts such as eyeballs, legs, hands, and so on. The movement of one body part may rotate another body part, depending upon the point of attachment of the muscle.

- Plekhg5 functions in bottle cell formation, and Shroom3 functions in neural plate closure, yet the phenotype of injecting mRNA of each into the animal pole of a fertilized egg is very similar. What is the phenotype, and why is the phenotype so similar? Is the phenotype going to be that there is a disruption of the formation of the neural tube for both of these because bottle cell formation is necessary for the neural plate to fold in forming the neural tube and Shroom3 is further needed to close the neural plate? So since both Plekhg5 and Shroom3 are used in forming the neural tube, injecting the mRNA will just lead to neural tube deformity?arrow_forwardWhat are some medical issues or health trends that may have a direct link to the idea of keeping fat out of diets?arrow_forwardwhat did charles darwin do in sciencearrow_forward
