31
Q

The protein that blocks actin from binding to myosin is_____

A

Troponin

32
Q

What is the role of tropomyosin in skeletal muscles?
A) Tropomyosin is the chemical that activates the myosin heads
B) Tropomyosin serves as a contraction inhibitor by blocking the myosin binding sites on the actin molecules
C) Tropomyosin serves as a contraction inhibitor by blocking the actin binding sites on the myosin molecules
D) Tropomyosin is the receptor for the motor neuron neurotransmitter

A

B) Tropomyosin serves as a contraction, and by blocking the myosin binding sites on the actin molecules

33
Q

What structure and skeletal muscle cells functions in calcium storage?
A) Sarcoplasmic reticulum
B) Mitochondria
C) intermediate filament network
D) myofibrillar network

A

A) sarcoplasmic reticulum

34
Q

Which of the following statements about the generation and propagation of action potentials initiated in the neuromuscular junction is not true?

A) the binding of neuro transmitters to receptors at the neuromuscular junction opens chemically (ligand) gated ions channels
B) the opening of ligand gated channels at the neuromuscular junction allows the simultaneous diffusion of Na+ inward and K+ outward, causing interior of cell to become more negative (a local depolarization) —> cell interior becomes less negative
C) local depolarization spreads to adjacent membrane areas and causes additional voltage gated Na+ channels open
D) Increasing Na+ influx further decreases membrane voltage towards critical voltage called threshold
E) once an AP is initiated, it is unstoppable and leads to a muscle fibercontraction

A

B) The opening of ligand gated channels at the neuromuscular junction allows the simultaneous diffusion of Na+ inward and K+ outward causing the interior of the cell to become more negative (a local depolarization)—> cells interior becomes less negative

42
Q

Is the following statement about smooth muscle true or false?

Smooth muscle has no connective tissue sheets or membranes

A

False
Smooth muscle has a scanty endomysium

43
Q

Is the following statement about smooth muscle true or false?

The sarcoplasmic reticulum of smooth muscle is highly developed

A

False
Is actually poorly developed

44
Q

Is the following statement about smooth muscle true or false?

Smooth muscle does not exhibit sarcomeres, myofibrils or T tubules

A

True

45
Q

Is the following statement truth or false about smooth muscle?
Smooth muscle tissue usually has two-layers — longitudinal and circular

A

True

46
Q

Is the following statement about smooth muscle true or false?

Instead of T tubules smooth muscles have caveolae of sarcolemma

A

True

47
Q

Briefly describe the special features of smooth muscle and their indications for organ lined with smooth muscle

Stress relaxation response:

A

Smooth muscle responds to stretch only briefly, then adapt to new length(but retains ability to contract on demand). This enables organ such as stomach and bladder to temporary store contents without expelling them with contractions.

48
Q

Briefly describe the special features of smooth muscle and their indications for organs lined with smooth muscle

Length and tension changes

A

Smooth muscle can contract when between half and twice its resting length (not limited by sarcomeres). This allows, hollow organs to tolerate tremendous change in volume with out becoming flabby one empty.

49
Q

Briefly describe the specials, features of smooth muscle and their indications for organs lined with smooth muscle

Hyperplasia

A

All muscle cells can under hypertrophy (increase in cell size), but muscle cells can also divide and increase numbers. This allows organ such as the uterus to grow during pregnancy.
