What is negative resistance region?
The region where resistance decreases with increase in temperature.
What region of the electromagnetic spectrum is 1100nm?
It lies in infrared region of electromagnetic spectrum.
Common region is the tendency to perceive what?
objects that are in a common area or region as being in a group
What is the most energy that can be associated with emr region?
The gamma ray is the most energy that can be associated with the EMR region.
What is the difference between electron flow direction and electric current flow direction?
the electrons flow from the region of low potential to region of high potential. the electric current also flow in this direction but for convention we took it as the flow of positive charge from region of low to high region potential.
Which region of a sarcomere shortens during contraction?
During a contraction, the I bands and H zone of a sarcomere contract. The A bands remain unchanged.
What are the 3 sections along the length of sarcomere?
The three sections along the length of a sarcomere are the A band, the I band, and the H zone. The A band is the dark region in the center of the sarcomere that contains both thick and thin filaments, while the I band is the light region at the ends of the sarcomere that contains thin filaments only. The H zone is the region in the center of the sarcomere where only thick filaments are present.
What region in a sarcomere does actin and myosin overlap?
z disc
The region between two successive Z discs is called?
Sarcomere
How is the H band distinguished from the other prominent structural features of the sarcomere?
It is a lighter region that contains thick filaments, but no thin filaments.
Which region of the brain provides the precise timing and appropriate patterns of skeletal muscle contraction?
Cerebellum
What region strongly supported the US during the cold war?
Region A
The end of the muscle that moves when a muscle contracts?
Histological PerspectiveBoth ends of the muscle are pulled together. This is because each muscle fiber is divided into contractile units called sarcomeres. Each sarcomere is composed of layers of thin and thick filaments, Actin and Myosinrespectively. The thick filaments, myosin, are located in the center of the sarcomere, a region called the A-Band. On either side of each A-Band, is a region called the I-Band. The I-Band is primarily composed of the thin filaments (Actin), although the thin filaments do overlap with the thick filaments within a sub region of the A-band called the zone of overlap.As the muscle contracts the thick filaments pull the thin filaments together on either side, resulting in the apparent contraction of the muscle on both sides.Gross Anatomical Perspective.However, because a muscle is anchored at the origin of the stationary bone while its other end attaches at the insertion of the articulating bone and the net force of the contracting muscle pulls the insertion of the muscle to its origin.It follows that: The correct answer is toward the origin.
