The actin filament is a polymer formed from 300 to 400 globular subunits called
______ - Answer G-actin.
A myofilament is the _________. - Answer Protein strand composed of actin or
myosin
T tubules ________. - Answer Conduct action potentials deep into the muscle cell
Arrange these structures as they participate in excitation-contraction. - Answer
Sarcolemma, T tubules, sarcoplasmic reticulum, calcium ions
A drug that interferes with the active transport of calcium ions from the sarcoplasm
back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum would result in _______. - Answer Contraction
with no relaxation
The refractory period ______. - Answer Is the time during which the tissue cannot

Cardiac muscle cells are like skeletal muscle cells in that they both ________. -
Answer have striations
A child ingested an organophosphate poison used to kill insects. Soon the child's
muscles began tetanic contractions. Predict what occurred at the synaptic cleft. -
Answer Both increased accumulation of acetylcholine in the synapse and increased
breakdown of acetylcholine in the synaptic cleft.
Predict the consequences of administration of a compound that blocks the calcium
channels on presynaptic motor neuron terminals.
A. This should ultimately inhibit the release of acetylcholine
B. This should ultimately inhibit the muscle membrane from depolarization
C. This should ultimately inhibit the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic
reticulum
D. All of the above are correct answers - Answer D. All of the above are correct
answers
Predict the consequences of administration of a compound that inhibits
acetylcholinesteras - Answer The muscle will stay contracted
Botulism food poisoning results from a toxin (poison) produced by bacteria. Death
from botulism results from the uncontrolled relaxation of the respiratory muscles
(diaphragm). Assuming that this toxin affects the neuromuscular junction, which of
the following could be a way in which this toxin could cause these muscles to relax
and no longer contract. - Answer The botulism toxin could block the release of
acetylcholine from the pre-synaptic terminal of a neruomuscular junciton.
