BIO 251 EXAM 3 STUDY GUIDEA muscle fiber can be innervated by multiple motor neurons. a) True b) False f The contraction time of a skeletal muscle is the time between initiation of stimulation and peak contraction of the muscle. a) True b) False f During contraction of all types of muscle cells, Ca++ initiates contraction by entering the cytoplasm of the muscle cell by the process of facilitated diffusion. a) True b) False t The plateau phase of the contractile cell action potential i...

Graded Potentials, Action Potentials&SynapseGraded Potentials - correct answer A small deviation from the RMP that makes the membrane either more polarized (more negative inside=hyperpolarizing) or less polarized (less negative inside=depolarizing). Hyperpolarizing Graded Potentials - correct answer When the response makes the membrane more polarized (more negative inside). Occurs in soma and dendrites of a neuron. Depolarizing Graded Potentials - correct answer When the response makes the...
