D)tropomyosin changes conformation when Ca2+ binds

E)all of the above occur during skeletal muscle contraction

4)The rapid depolarization phase of myocardial contratile cellaction potential is due to the movement of which ion(s)?

A)Ca2+ flows into the cytosol

B)K+ flow out of the cytosol

C)Na+ flow into the cytosol

5)You are a physiology graduate student asked to study theeffect of ion permeability on the initiation of action potentials.You have isolated a cell with resting membrane potential of -70mVand have determined that the cell's threshold voltage is -55mV. Youthen change the cell to make it less permeable to K+ ions(Eions=-90mV)

A)hyperpolarize; smaller

B)depolarize;greater

C)hyperpolarize;greater

D)depolarized; smaller

E)none of the above answers are possibe

6)Skeletal muscle cells are UNUSUAL in that they :

B)have no mitochondria

C)depend entirley on anaerobic respiration

D)have MULTIPLE nuclei

E)none of the baove are found in the skeletal muscle cells

7)What is the name for the autonomic nervous system synapses atthe neuroeffector?

A)electrical synapses

B)axon viscosities

C)bidirectional synapses

D)axon varicosities

E)light bulb synapse

8)Which cytokines are involvedin making cells resistant toviruses?

A)colony-stimulating actors

B)interferons

C)erythrpoietin

D)major histocompatibility complex

E)none of the above can make a cell resistant to a virus
