Textbook Question
Chapter 11, Problem 5AYKB
Predict the effect that tetrodotoxin would have on Albert’s muscle fiber action potentials (see question 3). Would it affect end-plate potentials at the motor end plate? Why or why not? (Connects toChapter 10)

Help please
Both the withdrawal reflex and the Golgi tendon reflex involve sensory signals that ultimately control the same type ofmotor neurons and both are protective. Explain how one reflex can cause muscle contraction while the other causes musclerelaxation.
Can I get a simple drawing to understand what's going on step by step

- Muscle motor unit recruitment follows the pattern of the SO (I) fibers being recruited first followed by the FOG (IIa) and then ultimately by the FG (IIb) if and when workloads require this. Muscle fatigue follows the order that the FG fibers fatigue first, followed by the FOG fibers and finally (maybe never) the SO fibers. Explain how it makes sense physiologically that the last fibers to be recruited to contract are the first to fatigue, while the first fibers to be recruited to contract would be the last to fatigue.arrow_forwardDescribe what is happening overall in the first sentence.

The brain stops sending the nerve impulse that commands the muscle to contract, interrupting communication at the neuromuscular junction 2. Acetylcholineesterase (AChE) is released into the synaptic cleft to destroy any remaining Acetylcholine 3. No mechanism is necessary. When the antagonist begins to contract, it forces relaxation and stretch of the agonist muscle. 4. Relaxation occurs as the myosin heads are "snapped" off of the thick filaments. This interrupts the crossbridge and allows for muscles to stretch 5. Relaxation only occurs if the brain sends a "stop" signal to the musclearrow_forward
