The verb form of "exposure" is "expose." It means to reveal, uncover, or make something visible to others.
To change the amount of water in a hydrated salt, you can heat it to remove water molecules (dehydration) or expose it to a humid environment to absorb more water molecules (hydration). This process can be controlled by adjusting temperature and humidity levels. It is important to follow proper procedures to avoid altering the chemical composition of the salt.
If by able you mean UNABLE, that is simple. A protein's function is determined entirely upon its shape. If you change the shape of a protein, for example, unfolding it, you change its function and make it unable to perform its job in a cell.
The word expose as a somewhat negative connotation, implying a non consensual exposure, one against the person's will. It implies vulnerability, which is negative.
Muscle fiber contraction is a complex process involving a number of cell parts and chemical substances that result in the sliding movement of the actin and myosin filaments and causes a contraction. A myosin filament is composed of protein strands with globular ends called cross-bridges that extend outward along the length of the filament. The actin filaments have ADP molecules attached to its surface that serve as active sites for linking the cross-bridges of the myosin filaments. Although the process is not completely understood, the sliding filament theory suggests that the myosin cross-bridge attaches to an actin active site and bends slightly, pulling the actin with it. It releases its attachment, straightens, and combines with another active site further down the actin filament, causing the sarcomere to shorten. When the nerve impulse reaches the distal end of its branch, acetylcholine is released into the gap. The acetylcholine diffuses rapidly across the motor end plate and combines with protein receptors in the sarcolemma. This causes a muscle impulse to be generated and pass in all directions over the entire sarcolemma, and through the T-tubules deep into the fiber. The S.R., which contains a high concentration of calcium ions, becomes more permeable and allows the ions to diffuse into the sarcoplasm. When a high enough concentration is present in the sarcoplasm, the linkages between the actin and myosin filaments occur and contraction takes place. The calcium ions are moved quickly back into the S.R. by an active transport system (calcium pump). When enough calcium ions have been removed from the sarcoplasm, the muscle relaxes. At the same time, the acetylcholine is rapidly decomposed by the enzyme cholinesterase. This prevents a single nerve impulse from causing a sustained contraction.
When a muscle is at rest, the active sites on the actin are blocked by tropomyosin. Tropomyosin prevents myosin binding to actin, which helps to keep the muscle relaxed. In order for muscle contraction to occur, tropomyosin must be moved out of the way to expose the active sites on actin.
Answer choices: A- It provides energy for contraction B- It stimulates the thick and thin filaments to contract C- It displaces tropomyosin to expose the binding sites on actin D- It stops cross-bridge activity E- It degrades ACh released by sarcoplasmic reticulum
The tropomyosin molecule blocks the active sites of the actin. Troponin is a molecule that is bound to the tropomyosin. Troponin needs CA+ (calcium ions) to bind to it in order to rotate the tropomyosin molecule and expose the actin molecules for the myosin heads to interact for muscle contraction.
A cross bridge in muscle contraction refers to the temporary connection formed between the myosin heads of thick filaments and the actin filaments of thin filaments within a muscle fiber. This interaction occurs during the contraction cycle when calcium ions bind to troponin, causing tropomyosin to shift and expose binding sites on actin. The myosin heads then attach to these sites, pulling the actin filaments toward the center of the sarcomere, which leads to muscle shortening and contraction. This process is a key component of the sliding filament theory of muscle contraction.
The power stroke in muscle contractions is primarily caused by the interaction between actin and myosin filaments within the muscle fibers. When calcium ions are released into the muscle cell, they bind to troponin, causing tropomyosin to shift and expose binding sites on actin. Myosin heads then attach to these sites, forming cross-bridges. The power stroke occurs when the myosin heads pivot, pulling the actin filaments inward, which shortens the muscle fiber and generates force.

Calcium ions are essential for muscle contraction as they bind to the protein complex troponin, causing tropomyosin to move out of the way and expose the myosin-binding sites on actin. This allows the myosin heads to bind to actin and form cross-bridges, leading to muscle contraction. After contraction, calcium is pumped back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum to relax the muscle.
