At one dorm, the favorite pastime is for one student to jump in a large garbage can while another student uses the rope tied to the can to pull the can and the first student around the courtyard. Unfortunately, when it is your turn, the student in the bucket is a 310-lb offensive lineman for the football team. Needless to say, try as you might, the can never moves. But all is not lost, because from your post of view, you correctly describe what occurs with your skeletal muscle as

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • tension was not generated so your muscles did not shorten

  • Eccentric contractions were not occurring because the load was independent

  • the latent period prior to isotonic contraction was not present

  • sarcomeres were not being shortened during the attempt

Erklärung

Frage 5 von 15

1

the H zone contains the ___ and then ___ contains the Z-line/disk.

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • M-line - A band

  • Z-line - Aband

  • M-line - I band

  • Z-line - I band

Erklärung

We are a Coca-Cola Campus. You decide to switch from drinking Coke to sugar-free Diet Coke. You are not surprised when the Diet Coke tastes similar to Coke. You correctly realize that the Diet Coke ___ contain compounds that can bind to the sweet receptors on your tongue and act as ___.

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Does not - antagonists

  • Does - antagonists

  • Does not - agonists

  • Does - agonist

In the Party Room, a group of students decide to learn this exam's material by physically acting everything out. After a couple of hours hard at work, they have a question for the Phys Phab. When Melanie walks over to the group, she quickly realizes that several of them are now badly in need of showers. The correct order for processing this information is ___ first and ___ last.

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • primary olfactory - olfactory bulb

  • primary olfactory - orbitofrontal cortex

  • olfactory bulb - primary olfactory cortex

  • olfactory bulb - orbitofrontal cortex

Frage 8 von 15

1

Mrs. Flarplord Baggins has re-designed Crabix to paralyze humans. Scientists determine that this Crabix does not impact any calcium channels and that the myofibers still depolarize. Consequently, Crabix might be preventing skeletal muscle contraction by

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • preventing the tropomyosin from moving relative to the thin myofilament

  • binding to the sodium channels on the myofber with a higher affinity than the acetylcholine

  • blocking the calcium channels in the transverse tubules

  • hyperpolarizing the motor neuron and thereby preventing the movement of calcium ions

Erklärung

Frage 9 von 15

1

When the cytosolic calcium level of a myofiber is increasing, the length of the A band will ___ and the length of the _____ will decrease.

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • decrease - M zone

  • remain the same - M zone

  • decrease - H zone

  • remain the same - H zone

Erklärung

Frage 10 von 15

1

Which of the following actions must occur for a myofiber to relax?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • calcium must be pumped back into the interstitial fluid

  • ADP must be present to detach the myosin from the actin

  • the interstitial acetylcholine at the junction must be eliminated

  • all three statements are correct about relaxing a myofiber

Erklärung

Frage 11 von 15

1

Isaacs Syndrome (aka neuromyotonia) causes continuous myofiber stimulation due to motor neurons repeatedly having action potentials generated on their axons. Based on this information and our correct knowledge of properly functioning, skeletal muscles, we can correctly determine that patients with this syndrome will have _____ within their myofibers when compared to normal individuals

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • a consistently higher level of sodium

  • the same amount of calcium

  • Both statements are correct

  • neither statement is correct

Erklärung

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • sweet and umami

  • fat and sour

  • fat and umami

  • all three pairs are correct

Erklärung

Frage 13 von 15

1

which is a correct statement about the comparison between lifting a light and a heavy weight?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • the heavy weight will require the activation of fewer motor units

  • the velocity will be slower when lifting the heavy weight

  • the response will be greater with the heavy weight

  • all three statements are correct

Erklärung
