- Distinguish between skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle in terms of location and whether they have sarcomeres. Use the sliding filament model to draw how thin filaments, thick filaments, and Z lines move during muscle contraction. Predict how perturbations of acetylcholine release, reception, or breakdown will influence muscle contraction. Predict how perturbations of actin, troponin, tropomyosin, myosin, or calcium would influence muscle contraction. Distinguish between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Predict how changes in stress levels or situations would affect activation of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system, levels of epinephrine and norepinephrine, and blood pressure.arrow_forwardDefine motor unit and describe its structure?arrow_forwardDescribe how each of the following factors influences motor unit recruitment: a) Increasing contraction speed b) Increasing force output c) Increasing fatiguearrow_forward
- 2. 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_forwardAccording to the free-body diagram, which forces act on both teams and rope before motion begins and in which directions?arrow_forwardDiscuss the function of Golgi tendon organs in monitoring muscle tension.arrow_forward
- Compare the force produced by a muscle over timewhen it is stimulated by a single twitch stimulus with theforce produced by multiple stimuli at low frequency, and thenwith the force produced when the stimulation frequency isincreased.arrow_forwardExplain in detail: 1) how an action potential occurs in a lower motor neuron, 2) how the motor neuron signals to the muscle fiber, and 3) the response of the muscle fiber.arrow_forwardExplain how skeletal muscle stimulation produces a sustained contraction.arrow_forward
