Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The number of time its body weight can be carried by the myosin molecules should be compared.
Concept introduction:

Acetylcholine is rapidly destroyed by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. This enzyme, which has a turnover number of 25,000 per second, has attained catalytic perfection with a kcat/KMkcat / KM of 2×108 M-1s-1.2 × 10° M¯'s1.

- Thanks In advance. And for the second pic only number 4arrow_forwardSalmoneus 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.arrow_forward. Intracellular concentrations in resting muscle are as follows: fructose- 6-phosphate, 1.0 mM; fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, 10 mM; AMP, 0.1 mM; ADP, 0.5 mM; ATP, 5 mM; and P;, 10 mM. Is the phosphofruc- tokinase reaction in muscle more or less exergonic than under stan- dard conditions? By how much?arrow_forward
- Only a few.
