Post throttle cable?

this might sound dumb but which cable is the throttle cable? There are two cables right next to each other and i am not sure which one is which. What is the other cable for anyways. If someone could post a pic and circle the throttle cable, that would be appreciated.

The other cable is for cruise control. The throttle cable is the one that has adjustments on it.

Tightening it too much will result in a higher idle, more stress on the tranny, the cable will want to stretch more at wot. If its not loose id leave it alone
