Arrange the following list of biochemical events in the correct sequence. (1) an action potential is conducted deep into the muscle fiber by the t tubule. (2) calcium ions bind to troponin. (3) the membranes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum become more permeable to calcium ions. (4) calcium ions diffuse into the sarcoplasm around the myofibril. (5) the troponin-tropomyosin complex moves exposing active sites.

1.An action potential is conducted deep into the muscle fiber by the T tubule.

3.The membranes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum become more permeable to calcium ions.

4.Calcium ions diffuse into the sarcoplasm around the myofibril.

2.Calcium ions bind to troponin.

5.The troponin-tropomyosin complex moves exposing active sites.

Explanation:

The arrival of a nerve impulse at synaptic end bulbs stimulates the release of acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft. The acetylcholine binds to its receptors located on the motor end-plate followed by the opening of ion channels to allow the small cations such as Na+ to enter the muscle fiber and make it positive.

The change in the membrane potential triggers the action potential that propagates along the sarcolemma into the T tubules. The action potential stimulates the release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the sarcoplasm.

The released calcium ions combine with troponin. Binding of calcium ions to troponin stimulates conformational change in troponin that makes the tropomyosin to shift away from the myosin-binding sites of actin.

The myosin heads join the free binding sites to form cross-bridges leading to contraction of muscle fiber.

c.) polymerase chain reaction

- "unlike the original dna fingerprinting method, dna profiling does not use restriction enzymes to cut the dna. instead it uses the polymerase chain reaction (pcr)? to produce many copies of specific str sequences. pcr is an automated procedure that generates lots of copies of a specific sequence of dna."

the answer for this question would be d. glaciers
