head hair
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Smooth muscle is organized in two ways: as single-unit smooth muscle, which is much more common; and as multiunit smooth muscle. The two types have different locations in the body and have different characteristics. Single-unit muscle has its muscle fibers joined by gap junctions so that the muscle contracts as a single unit. This type of smooth muscle is found in the walls of all visceral organs except the heart (which has cardiac muscle in its walls), and so it is commonly called visceral muscle. Because the muscle fibers are not constrained by the organization and stretchability limits of sarcomeres, visceral smooth muscle has a stress-relaxation response. This means that as the muscle of a hollow organ is stretched when it fills, the mechanical stress of the stretching will trigger contraction, but this is immediately followed by relaxation so that the organ does not empty its contents prematurely. This is important for hollow organs, such as the stomach or urinary bladder, which continuously expand as they fill. The smooth muscle around these organs also can maintain a muscle tone when the organ empties and shrinks, a feature that prevents "flabbiness" in the empty organ. In general, visceral smooth muscle produces slow, steady contractions that allow substances, such as food in the digestive tract, to move through the body. Multiunit smooth muscle cells rarely possess gap junctions, and thus are not electrically coupled. As a result, contraction does not spread from one cell to the next, but is instead confined to the cell that was originally stimulated. Stimuli for multiunit smooth muscles come from autonomic nerves or hormones but not from stretching. This type of tissue is found around large blood vessels, in the respiratory airways, and in the eyes. Q: What is another common term for single-unit smooth muscle? Choices: - abnormal muscle - lateral muscle - energies muscle - visceral muscle A:
A: visceral muscle
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: 10.6 Exercise and Muscle Performance Hypertrophy is an increase in muscle mass due to the addition of structural proteins. The opposite of hypertrophy is atrophy, the loss of muscle mass due to the breakdown of structural proteins. Endurance exercise causes an increase in cellular. Q: Loss of muscle mass due to breakdown of structural proteins is known as what? Choices: - distrophy - mutation - exhaustion - atrophy A:
Answer: atrophy

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The White Mountains in New Hampshire are part of the Appalachian province. The mountains are only around 6,000 feet high. Q: The white mountains in new hampshire are part of what province? Choices: - montreal - geologic - antarctic - appalachian A:
**Answer**
appalachian
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Topsoil usually does not have very small particles like clay. Clay-sized particles are carried to lower layers as water seeps down into the ground. Many minerals dissolve in the fresh water that moves through the topsoil. These minerals are carried down to the lower layers of soil. Q: What layer of soil usually does not have very small particles like clay? Choices: - undersoil - sediment - silt - topsoil A:
A: topsoil
