What is the function of the Golgi bodies and where is it located?

Complex of vesicles and folded membranes within the cytoplasm.

The transport chain located in the prokaryotic cells

A process involved in the secretion and intra-cellular transport. It is located in most eukaryotic cells.

Collection of enzymes that perform specialized tasks, including synthesis of membrane lipids

Hyperpolarization

Depolarization

Repolarization

Parasympathetic

Mitosis is the process in which..

Cell division reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells.

A single cell divides into two identical daughter cells.

Protein builder that connects one amino acid at a time and build long chains.

A substance produced by a living organism acts as a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction.

What is the general purpose of DNA Replication?

Semi-conservative, one strand serves as the template for the second strand.

The first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA

The genetic code carried by mRNA is decoded to produce the specific sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain

What is the general purpose of Translation?

The first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA

The genetic code carried by mRNA is decoded to produce the specific sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain

Semi-conservative, one strand serves as the template for the second strand.

Explain T-Tubules

Cell membrane of muscle fiber

Globular protein that forms two fibrous strands twisted around each other to form the bulk of the thin filament

The muscle fiber's version of smooth endoplasmic reticulum; function is to temporarily store calcium

Formed by inward extensions of the sarcolema; main function is to allow electrical signals to move deeper into the cell

What is Myosin?

Makes up almost all the thick filament, "heads" are chemically attracted to actin molecules.

Globular protein that forms two fibrous strands twisted around each other to form the bulk of the thin filament

Where the limb is in place had held for a short time. It addresses ROM without regard to how rapidly the ROM can be achieved.

PNF or Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

What is the similarity and difference between parasympathetic and sympathetic?

Both part of the autonomic nervous system. Sympathetic is referred to as fight or flight, whereas parasympathetic can be referred to as rest and digest.

The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems work involuntarily.

The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems work involuntarily. Parasympathetic is responsible for the body's responses to a perceived threat.
