This metabolic pathway proceeds without oxygen, occurs in the cytosol of the cell, produces low ATP, and animals (including humans) cannot survive on this system alone. (Bonus high five: how many ATP does it yield)

What is the Anaerobic pathway. (2)

100

What neurotransmitter and channel is housed in the presynaptic somatic motor neuron terminal?

What is Acetylcholine and Calcium?

100

This thin filament is covered in two proteins (name them) and is anchored at each end of the sarcomere by Z lines.

What is actin? Troponin and tropomyosin.

100
Lets start with the basics: What is the main role of the autonomic nervous system and what are the divisions/their nicknames?

What is homeostasis and sympathetic (f/f) + parasympathetic (r+d)

100

Which fiber types are slow v fast twitch?

What is: Type 1 is slow and Type 2 is fast?

200

This type of metabolic pathway takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and time. (Bonus: How many ATP)

What is Aerobic? (Net total: 32)

200

What does ACh bind with and where?

What is NAChR and postsynaptic membrane?

200

This thick filament has specialized projections called cross bridges.

What is myocin? (ends in heads)

200

Which ANS releases ACh onto a postganglionic cell (notes also have this cell as Nicotinic Cholinergic Receptors)?

What is BOTH!

200

What is the difference between the two fast twitch fibers?

What is: Fast Oxidative-Glycolytic (2A) is a combo of Type 1 and Type 2X and Fast Glycolytic (2X) is large diameter, pale color and easily fatigued.

300

What are the three transitional energy systems?

What are: Phosphogen, Glycolitic, and Oxidative?

300

What creates the end plate potential?

What is the sodium/potassium pumps?

300

When is the sliding filament theory initiated?

When is the Ca binds to the troponin?


ATP is converted into potential energy and used in muscle action*

300

Which ANS releases norepinephrine onto Adrenergic Receptors on a target cell?

What is the SNS?

300

This type of muscle is darker in color, smaller in diameter, and fatigue resistant.

What is Type 1?

400

How many ATP, pyruvate, and NADH does glycolysis yield?

What is: 2 ATP, 2 pyruvate, and 2 NADH?

400

What is the region of the muscle membrane that contains a large amount of nAChR receptors?

What is the motor end plate?

400

This giant protein acts as a spring and spans across half of the sarcomere, centering the thick filament.

What is titin?

400

Which hormone released by the anterior pituitary is   sent to the liver and aids in tissue  healing? ?

What is it growth hormone?

400

Which type of fiber pumps calcium into their sarcoplasmic reticulum more rapidly?

What is Type 2?

500

What all does the electron transport chain yield?

What is: 10 NADH and 2 FADH for 28 ATP?

500

When is the NMJ formed?

When is the alpha motor neurons synapse with skeletal muscle fibers?

500

This stabilizer forms a scaffold around a sarcomere.

What is the Desmin?

500
When we are taking our exam, which ANS will take place and which neurotransmitter(s) will be released and to where?
What is F or F and heart, lungs, digestion, ya name it.

True or False: Muscle fiber types are fixed for life.

What is false?
