  1. 1Which of the following statements are TRUE regarding cardiac myocytes?
    1. Athe vast majority of intracellular proteins are fixed and carry a positive charge
    2. BThe equilibrium membrane potential for Na+ is higher than the potential for K+
    3. CAction potentials are initiated by the opening of voltage gated Calcium channels
    4. DThe delayed opening of voltage gated sodium channels are responsible for maintaining the plateau of the action potential

    9. IK+
    10. JNa+
  3. 3During Diastole which of the following movement of ions are occurring in cardiac myocytes.
    1. AThere is a Net Passive movement of Na+ ions into the cell
    2. BThere is a Net Passive movement of Na+ ions out of the cell
    3. CThere is a Net Passive movement of K+ ions into the cell
    4. DThere is a Net Passive movement of K+ ions out of the cell
    5. EThere is a Net Passive movement of Ca2+ ions into the cell
    6. FThere is a Net Passive movement of Ca2+ ions out of the cell
    7. GNa+ is being actively pumped into the cell in exchange for K+ which is being pumped out
    8. HNa+ is being actively pumped into the cell in exchange for Ca2+ which is being pumped out
    9. IK+ is being actively pumped into the cell in exchange for Na+ which is being pumped out
    10. JCa2+ is being actively pumped into the cell in exchange for Na+ which is being pumped out
  4. 4Which of the following statements are correct?Image for question 4
    1. AAt Point 1 there is a large movement of Na+ ions into the Cell
    2. BAt Point 1 Voltage Gated Sodium channels are Open
    3. CAt Point 1 Voltage Gated Potassium channels are Open
    4. DAt Point 2 Voltage Gated Potassium channels are Open
    5. EAt Point 2 Voltage Gated Sodium channels are Open
    6. FAt Point 2 the dip in membrane potential is due to efflux of Ca2+ through voltage gated channels
    7. GPoint 3 represents the plateau, which is maintained by Calcium efflux
    8. HPoint 3 represents the plateau, which is maintained by Calcium influx
    9. IDuring Stage 4 passive movement of K+ though only leak channels returns the membrane potential to rest
    10. JDuring Stage 4 the net movement of chloride is from the ICF to the ECF
  5. 5Which of the following statements is FALSE regarding the refractory period of a cardiac myocyte Action Potential?Image for question 5
    1. AThe Absolute refractory period is due to the rapid inactivation of Na+ channels after they open, these channels are not reactivated until membrane potential is below 65mV
    2. BDue to the extended refractory period, cardiac muscle can not be tetanized
    3. CAnother Action Potential can not be initiated during any of the stages 1-4
    4. DThe inactivation of VO Na+ channels causes a change in the shape of the protein channel, blocking the passage of Na+ ions.
    5. EAll of the above are true
  6. 6Fast response action potentials occur in the SA Node
    1. ATrue
    2. BFalse
