A curve has parametric equations x=t(t-1), y=4t/(1-t). The point S on the curve has parameter t=-1. Show that the tangent to the curve at S has equation x+3y+4=0.

To anwser this question we need to find a linear equation of the form y=mx+c which we can rearrange to give the desired equation. Firstly, we must find the gradient at the point S given by dy/dx. Using th...

Explain how the proteins troponin, tropomyosin, actin and myosin regulate muscle contraction.

When the muscle is relaxed, tropomyosin fibres wrap around the actin filament, covering up the sites at which myosin can bind with actin.

During muscle contraction, Ca2+ ions bind to troponin compl...
