Q

what does the nervous system do

A

controls muscle contractions with action potenetials

102
Q

what is the membrane volatege difference across membranes

A

inside some cells more negative. More K+ on the inside

more Na on the outside. Na/K maintians concentrations of ions.

103
Q

what are the two types of ion channels

A

ligand gated- neurotransmitter attackes to receptor and gate opens, Na moves into cell
voltage gated- voltage changed open gates. gates only for Na+ and gates for only K+

104
Q

what are the two action potentials

A

depolarization- inside plasma membrane becomes less negative

repolarization- return to resting membrane potential

105
Q

what is action potential

A

if charge reaches the membrane potential

106
Q

what is propagate

A

spread from one location to another. action potentials does not move aong the membrane.

107
Q

what is frequency of action potentials

A

number of action potentials per unit of time.

108
Q

what are the muscle contraction factors

A

the amount of force in individual muscle fiber, amount of force in whole muscle.

109
Q

what happens in a single contraction

A

each myosin myofilament undergoes cross bridge formation, movement, release in return.

110
Q

what is synapse

A

axon terminal resting in depression of the arcolemma.

111
Q

what is presynaptic terminal

A

axon terminal with synaptic vesicles

112
Q

what is synaptic cleft

A

space betweeen presynaptic terminal and muscle fiber

113
Q

what is postsynaptic membrane or motor end plate

A

muscle plasma membrane in area of junction

114
Q

what are the sections of the neuromuscular junction

A

presynaptic
synaptic
postsynaptic

115
Q

what happens in synaptic vesicles

A

neurotransmitter released from presynaptic terminal membrane, diffuses across synaptic cleft
it stimulates action potentials in postsynaptic membrane.

116
Q

what is acetylcholinesterase

A

degrading enzyme in synaptic cleft

117
Q

what is excitation

A

mechanism where action potentials causes muscle fiber contraction

118
Q

what does excitation involve

A

sarcolemma
transverse tubules
terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Ca2+
tropomyosin complex reestablishes its position and blockes binding sites on actin.

119
Q

what happens if something blockes the receptor site for acetycholine in the neuromuscular junction

A

myasthenia gravis

120
Q

what are the results of the resting membrane potential

A

K+ concentration higher than outside membrane
Na+ concentration outside is higher than inside
more permeable to K+ than Na+

121
Q

what do sodium potassium pumps maintain

A

uneven distribution of Na+ and K+ across plasma membrane

122
Q

what is power stroke

A

movement of myosin head

123
Q

what is recovery stroke

A

breakdown of ATP by myosin head supplies energy

124
Q

what does depolarization in one action potential trigger

A

opening of nearby voltage gated Na+ single action potential

125
Q

what is action potential frequency

A

number of action potentials produced in certian amount of time. can affect strenght of muslce contraction.

126
Q

what is amuscle twitch

A

muscle contraction from stimulus that casues action potential in one or more muscle fibers.

127
Q

what are the phases of muscle twitch

A

lag
contraction
relaxation

128
Q

what is the lag phase in muscle twitch

A

gap between time of simulation to motor neuron and beginning of contraction.

129
Q

what are motor units

A

a single motor neuron and all muscle fibers innervated by it.

130
Q

what does size of motor units depend on

A

number of muscle fibers in unit.

131
Q

what is all or noen principle

A

contraction of equal force to each action potential

132
Q

what is muscle tetany

A

the frequency potentials increase, the frequency of contraction increases.
