Skeletal muscles are under voluntary control. Explain the processes that must occur in order for a muscle like our Biceps brachi (an elbow flexor) to contract and shorten so that you can pick up a beer after taking this exam. Describe the roles that lons and molecules play in both contraction and relaxation and how the sliding filament theory enables sarcomeres to shorten. Be descriptive but answer the question in your own words.

Fish Cell Physiology
Compare and contrast the movement of salt ion in the tissues of a living fish and the tissue of a dead fish, is it similar? What goes in and goes out of the cell? Is it water or salt, discuss in both the living and the dead fish. Discuss what particular part of the cell and the mechanism of this process.

It circulates around the body in the blood and binds to receptor proteins in the cell membrane of cells to "unlock" them and allow sugar to enter the cell. In people with type 2 diabetes, the shape of the receptor protein in the cell membranes is changed due to poor diet. As a result, insulin is no longer the correct shape to bind, and sugar stays in the blood. For this assignment, I would like you to make two hand written drawings: Show insulin correctly binding to a receptor protein in a normal person's cell membrane.
