True or False:
(T/F) Balance and body position during flight would be monitored in part using hair plates located on the prothorax behind the head capsule.(T/F) When performing waggle dances in the hive, the bee would produce pulses of spund to indicate the distance to the flowers and these sounds would be detected by the dance followers using the sensory structure shown in Fig. 3.(T/F) The Central Pattern Generators for operating the indirect flight muscles are contained in the tritocerebrum of the bee's supraesophagael ganglion.

We discussed how muscle spindles allow for precision of movement as a muscle lengthens, and particular muscles which require more precise movements will contain more spindles. In addition to this precision control over muscle length, there are other differences between muscles which enable more precision in how much force is generated. Consider the two graphs below which depict force generated by two different muscles as additional motor units are recruited. Force Muscle A Load Force Muscle B Load a) Describe why the first steps for a low force contraction in both muscles are smaller than the later ones in the context of motor units and force production.arrow_forwardHow are motor neurons involved in muscle contractions? Select all that apply. The release of calcium ions into muscle fiber causes a shift in the proteins of thick filaments, allowing myosin to bind to actin. The release of calcium ions into muscle fiber causes a shift in the thin filaments, allowing myosin to bind to actin. A signal from the motor neuron leads to the release of calcium ions from the muscle fiber's sarcoplasmic reticulum. Muscle fibers respond to signals from motor neurons whose axon endings lie far from the muscle fiber.arrow_forward
- *When dynamic y-motor neurons are activated at the same time as a-motor neurons to muscle, [A] prompt inhibition of discharge in spindle la afferents takes place. [B] clonus is likely to occur.

[E] the number of impulses in spindle la afferents is greater than when a discharge alone is increased.arrow_forwardrespectively. Speculate about what this ratio difference means in terms of muscle activity potential and a possible evolutionary significance of this difference. 4. Fleas can jump up to 40 times their body length. However, calculation on the biomechanics of the leg extensor muscles, do not provide enough force to account for such jumps. If the flea's ability to jump high is not reliant upon muscle strength, how else could the leg structure be modified to assist in the flea jumping mechanism? How would you test your idea?
