what is a cochlea

A

a spiral shaped organ with a bony core called modiolus

23
Q

what organ is used for sound transduction

A

The cilia

24
Q

what are perilymph and endolymph

26
Q

what are tip links

A

a mechanotransductor at the top of the cilia

27

negative mechanical deformation allows

A

the moving away from the kinocilium to close the channel

semicircular canals function

A

for balance

Q

conditions of the meniere’s

A

dizziness, progressive hearing loss and vertigo

40
Q

Skeletal muscles are connected to bones by

A

Tendons

41
Q

Skeletal muscles are composed of hundreds to thousands of individual cells called

A

Sarcomeres

42
Q

The term motor unit refers to

A

One motor neuron and all of the skeletal muscle fibers it innervates

43
Q

The motor neuron and muscle fiber intersect at what is called

A

The neuromuscular junction

44
Q

A twitch is

A

One contractile response to a single action potential.

45
Q

An action potential in a motor neuron triggers the release of which neurotransmitter

A

Acetylcholine

46
Q

The graded depolarization in the skeletal muscle fiber that is elicited in response to one action potential from the motor neuron is called

A

A threshold potential

47
Q

Which of the following is not a phase of a skeletal muscle twitch

A

Hyperpolarization phase

48
Q

Which of the following correctly matches the twitch phase with its definition

The contraction phase: the time between an action potential in a muscle cell and the start of muscle tension

49
Q

Skeletal muscle fibers are innervated (stimulated) by

A

Motor neurons

50
Q

A single action potential propagating down a motor axon results in

A

a single action potential and a single contractile event in the muscle fibers it innervates
