1b)What are the names of the 3 phases on a myograph during an action potential?

1a) myograph 

1B) Latent period, contraction phase, Relaxation phase 

100

Describe Aerobic respiration

up to 36 more ATP per glucose and REQUIRES O2.

100

1A) The brain and spinal cord are a part of which nervous system?

1B)The peripheral NS divides into which 2 types?

Central NS

sensory and motor

100

1A) Local potentials ___.

1B) ___ ___ ___ is the chemical key to a local potential.

communicate via into dendrite. 

ligand gated channel 

100

1A)What structure wraps each of the muscle fibers in connective tissue and provides blood and nerves

1b)What is the term for a bundle of muscle fibers

Endomysium

fascicle

200

What is the term(s) for action potentials added together for a stronger response? "recruitment"

Multiple Motor Unit Summation

"MMU"

200

1a) The phosphagen system creates ___ energy?


1B)Which part of the phosphagen system borrows phosphate from Creatine Phosphate to create ATP?

Creatine kinase or Myokinase?

immediate 

creatine kinase 

200

name the 2 divisions that are a part of the sensory division, and describe them.

visceral sensory division- organs/blood that we are unconsciously aware of, or feel but not specific (stomach pain)

Somatic sensory division- special senses that we are aware of ( 5 senses) 

200

Describe the 4 characteristics of a local potential 

graded

decremental

reversible 

excitatory and inhibitory 

graded: weak(few)/ strong (alot)

decremental: fades/ dilutes as it gets away from the source 

reversible: send K out or Cl in (hyperpolarize)

Excitatory (+) and inhibitory (-)

200

1A)Which part of the muscle fiber is electrolyte rich

1b)What ion is released to initiate a muscle contraction

1C)What is the thick filament that is ATP activated that grabs on to a thin filament?

Sarcoplasm

Ca 

myosin

300
What is the general Principle of a MMU?

Higher the stimulus...

The more nerves activated...

More of a contraction!!! ( increased tension) 

300

1A)Which part of ATP synthesis used the lactic acid system and glycogen?

1B)Aerobic respiration is __ __ energy. Which get O2 from ___.

Anaerobic fermentation.

long term, blood

300

Name the 2 Visceral motor divisions and describe them?

sympathetic NS: fight/ flight 

parasympathetic NS: calming/ regulating/ grounding 

300

1A)local potentials occur in __ meanwhile action potentials occur in___.

1B) In which stage of an action potential is it IMPOSSIBLE to engage in more than 1 AP.

dendrite/cell body and axon

absolute refractory period 

300

1. What are the 2 regulatory proteins

2.The area of a sarcomere where the thick filament resides is considered the

3.Communication of nerves occurs here

Tropomyosin and troponin 

A band

synapse

400

Which of the following describes a temporal summation and incomplete tetanus? and why?

A) Still higher stimulus frequency 

B) Unnaturally high stimulus frequency 

c) unnaturally low stimulus frequency 

Still higher stimulus frequency

Twitches get stronger and muscle doesnt completely relax between twitches. Which produces a result of incomplete tetanus.

400
Slow oxidative fibers have which of the following?

a) Abundant mitochondria 

b) high fatigue resistance

c) abundant myoglobin 

d) all of the above

e) none of the above

D

400

1) Sensory ____ neurons 

2)___neurons

3)Motor ___ neurons 


afferent 

inter-neurons

efferent 

400

1A) What is in the salatory myelinated fibers that allows for faster AP's to be sent ?

1B) would an AP be sent faster down a myelinated or unmyelinated axon?

Nodes of Ranvier, causes them to jump instead of domino effect making it a faster process, so its myelinated.

400

1.What enzyme breaks down acetylcholine

2.The part (time) of an action potential where membrane voltage rises and becomes a less negative charge?

3.Calcium binds to what part of the muscle fiber during excitation contraction coupling

Acetylcholinesterase

depolarization

troponin

500

Which type of muscle contractions are described as same length different tension (wall sit/plank)

isometric contraction 

500

1A) resistance training results in?

1B)Endurance exercise results in what?

hypertrophy and addition of myofibrals

more glycogen, more mitochondria, angiogenesis, 

500

The Peripheral Nervous system is made up of __ and ___

nerves and ganglia 
500

What allows for a faster conduction speed other than myelin? 

fiber diameter because it allows for more channels because of the increased surface area.

500

1. In the contraction stage, myosin heads attach to the actin to form what

2.What type of muscle is the strongest and why

3. what part of the muscle causes contractions
