Acetylcholinesterase

200

Where are the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles?

400

What does creatine phosphate do in a muscle cell?

Stores energy that resynthesizes ADP to ATP

400

Which movement role opposes or reverses a movement?

Antagonist

What do gray and white matter contain?

Gray matter contains neuron cell bodies (unmyelinated), white matter contains axons (myelinated)

400

What do calcium ions do during a muscle contraction?

Bind to troponin to allow the muscle to contract

Compare and contrast Schwann cells and oligodendrocytes

Both form myelin sheaths, but Schwann cells do so in the PNS and oligodendrocytes do so in the CNS
