What are actin fibers?
Actin is a contractile protein fibers present in muscles.It occurs in two forms a.monomeric G actin b. polymeric F ACTIN.
Are posix threads user level or kernel level?
POSIX threads are user level threads, because had a interface library and the operating systems don't control his ejecution and does not know
Why does fabric shrink?
Cloth is made of woven together threads, which are made up of cotton fibers. As the fibers are spun into thread, the thread is woven into cloth, the fibers get stretched. The stress of them being stretched is relieved when they are washed.
What material are microtubules composed of?
Microtubules are polymers of tubulin. Microfilaments are polymers of actin.
Identify three kinds of threads and tell when each should be used?
Three common types of threads are user threads, kernel threads, and lightweight processes (LWPs). User threads are managed by a user-level library and are ideal for applications requiring quick context switching without kernel intervention. Kernel threads are managed by the operating system, making them suitable for tasks that require direct interaction with the OS, such as I/O operations. Lightweight processes combine features of both, allowing for efficient multitasking within a single application while still being managed by the kernel, making them useful in multi-threaded server applications.
Long threads made of actin are called?
Long threads made of actin are called actin filaments, also known as microfilaments. Actin filaments are an important component of the cytoskeleton in cells and play a critical role in cell structure, movement, and division.
What Microfilaments are made from ball shaped proteins called?
Microfilaments are made from a protein called actin. Actin filaments are composed of monomers of globular actin proteins, which can polymerize to form long, thin filaments that are a crucial component of the cytoskeleton in cells.
What is a microfilament?
A microfilament is a small filamentous structure found in cells, made up of actin protein subunits. Microfilaments are involved in various cellular processes such as cell movement, cytokinesis, and maintenance of cell shape. They are part of the cytoskeleton, which provides structural support to the cell.
What are the two types of myofilaments?
The two filaments involved are myosin and actin. Actin: is the framework and slides over the myosin filament when the muscle is shortened. myosin: is a thick filament Also a sacromere: is made up of the actin and myosin. It is the functional unit of a muscle fibre and extends from z line to z line. A muscle contraction: is many sacromeres shortening ( actin sliding over myosin)
Myofibrils are made primarily of what?
actin and myosin
Muscle cells are made up of?
actin
What are sacromer made up of?
Actin and Myosin
A unit of muscle that is made of actin and myosin?
Sarcomeres contain myofilaments which consist of actin (thin) and Myosin (thick).
What are microtubes made out of?
Microfilaments are made of protein strands called actin.
What are actin and myosin and are they organized iin a muscle?
Thick filaments are made of the protein myosin and thin filaments are made of the protein actin. Myosin and actin filaments are arranged to form and overlapping pattern which gives muscle tissue its striated appearance.
What are Analogies for microfillament?
Assuming you meant microfilament, it is mostly comprised of linear polymers of actin, or actin filaments. Some use "actin filament" (or sometimes just "actin") and "microfilament" interchangably.
What are directional threads in fabric?
The long threads are called the warp and the shorter cross threads are called the weft.
