Ch. 12 Nervous System: Can't Stand the Heat Read the overview and complete the interactivities that follow. Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune, inflammatory disease in which the body's immune system attacks the myelin covering of the axons in the central nervous system. It can present with a variety of neurological symptoms that may come and go, but the condition progressively worsens. Experts believe the disease develops in a genetically susceptible person following exposure to an environmental trigger. Bob is a 29 year-old, hard-driving and aspiring attorney. He graduated top in his class from law school and never does things halfway. In his spare time, he enjoys outdoor sports, especially golf. Lately, however, his swing has been off and he's experienced tingling and weakness in his left leg, which seems to worsen during the hot part of the day. Over the weekend, Bob had gone with friends to the beach, and after about an hour of lying on the sand, he was so weak he could not get up without help. He went to see his doctor. Weakness Read the report and answer all questions. Bob's doctor performed a detailed neurological exam and found Bob did, in fact, have left leg weakness and an unsteady gait. There was also a mild sensory deficit over the dorsal aspect of his right hand. When the doctor asked Bob to look at a picture of a grid to check his visual acuity, Bob's left eye was fine, but when using only his right eye, he reported several missing lines and segments of the grid. A careful history revealed that Bob has had at least two similar episodes in the past three years. Since Bob's previous symptoms had disappeared, he had dismissed them as insignificant. Bob's doctor ordered a computerized tomography scan (CT) of Bob's brain. The CT findings were diagnostic of multiple sclerosis (MS). The symptoms of multiple sclerosis present when the body's immune system attacks the myelin covering of the axons in the central nervous system. Myelin is a product of the oligodendrocytes and provides insulation for the axons. Oligodendrocytes are constantly renewing and regenerating the myelin wrappings around the axons. In MS, the damage occurs at a faster rate than the oligodendrocytes can replace the myelin, leaving the axon permanently exposed. Damage to the myelin impairs the nerve cell's ability to propagate a wave of depolarization; thus, there is poor communication between neurons. The breakdown in neuronal communication is what leads to the symptoms of MS. The term multiple sclerosis refers to the scars (scleroses, also known as plaques) that are left in the white matter of the brain and spinal cord after an episode of inflammation. 1. Myelin is critical to nervous system function since it provides insulation for the neuronal axons and facilitates rapid propagation of neural impulses. a) It is the source of acetylcholine and thus critical to neuronal signal propagation. b) It provides insulation for the neuronal axons and facilitates rapid propagation of neural impulses. c) It is used by neurons as an emergency energy source during times of low blood glucose. 2.

Ch. 12 Nervous System: Can't Stand the Heat Read the overview and complete the interactivities that follow. Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune, inflammatory disease in which the body's immune system attacks the myelin covering of the axons in the central nervous system. It can present with a variety of neurological symptoms that may come and go, but the condition progressively worsens. Experts believe the disease develops in a genetically susceptible person following exposure to an environmental trigger. Bob is a 29 year-old, hard-driving and aspiring attorney. He graduated top in his class from law school and never does things halfway. In his spare time, he enjoys outdoor sports, especially golf. Lately, however, his swing has been off and he's experienced tingling and weakness in his left leg, which seems to worsen during the hot part of the day. Over the weekend, Bob had gone with friends to the beach, and after about an hour of lying on the sand, he was so weak he could not get up without help. He went to see his doctor. MS Read the report and answer all questions. People with MS can experience neurological symptoms ranging from muscle weakness to tingling and numbness (hypoesthesia), visual defects, and even memory and cognitive impairment. The symptoms of MS may come and go, sometimes with months of remission, but the disease process continues. For reasons that are unclear, higher than usual ambient temperatures lead to an exacerbation of symptoms (Uhthoff's phenomenon). Although relapses of symptoms can occur at any time, there are recognized triggers for acute attacks, among them: stress, viral infections, and pregnancy. Most researchers believe MS results from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Genes that increase the risk have been identified. Regarding an environmental factor, an interesting geographical distribution has been observed. The further one gets from the equator, the greater the incidence (number of new cases) of MS. Typically beginning in the early thirties MS progresses over a period of decades. Women are more often affected than men, and life expectancy of a person with MS is generally 5 to 10 years less than unaffected people. There is no cure for MS. Treatments are aimed at reducing the frequency and severity of attacks, recovering as much function as possible after an attack, and preventing or controlling long-term disability. Because of Bob's history of intermittent episodes with periods of remission, his condition was classified as relapsing remitting MS (as opposed to progressive forms, where there is a slow accumulation of symptoms over time). To treat his current episode, he was started on intravenous corticosteroids. Although helpful during an acute attack, steroids do not have a significant impact on long-term recovery. Bob and his doctor discussed long-term therapy and decided on a trial course of Fingolimod, an anti-inflammatory drug originally developed to prevent organ transplant rejection. In the case of MS, it seems to work by preventing immune cells from entering the central nervous system, and it might stimulate oligodentrocytes to repair the damaged myelin. Unfortunately, the medication is not without side effects, which include increased risk of infections, headaches, slow heart rate and certain kinds of skin cancer. 1. The symptoms of MS can come and go. This is because a) The astrocytes take on the job of making the myelin. b) The neurons themselves are making the myelin covering. c) The oligodendrocytes are constantly renewing the myelin sheathes, so they are able to temporarily repair some of the damage. d) The neurons are able to temporarily adapt to the absence of the myelin and use an alternate system of propagating neural impulses. 2. Triggers of acute episodes of MS include a) Infections. b) Stress. c) Pregnancy. d) All listed choices. 3. Most researchers believe MS results from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. One peculiar observation regarding environment is the fact that the incidence increases as one gets further from the equator. a) True b) False

1) 2d) All listed choices. 3a) True

Ch. 12 Nervous System: Read and answer Muscle contraction is dependent upon proper nervous system stimulation. The region where the neurological signal is transferred to the muscle is called the neuromuscular junction. A motor unit consists of a single motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers it innervates. The production of an action potential by the motor neuron results in the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Acetylcholine diffuses across the fluid-filled synaptic cleft and binds to receptors present on the motor end-plate of the muscle fiber. The resulting excitation of the muscle fiber is the first step in eliciting muscle contraction. Neuromuscular-Blocking Agents Read the report and answer all questions. Neuromuscular-blocking agents interfere with the function of either the pre- or postsynaptic membranes at the neuromuscular junction. Regardless of the specific region targeted, these agents prevent muscle contraction by interrupting the normal chain of events involved with neuromuscular signaling. Curare is the common name for a group of poisons used to coat the tips of arrows. When introduced into the blood of a victim, the main curare toxin, tubocurarine, competitively binds to and prevents the opening of acetylcholine receptors located in the membrane of the motor end-plate. Consequently, there is no end-plate potential and no contraction of the muscle. Lethal doses of curare cause paralysis of the respiratory muscles and death by asphyxiation. Botulism is an illness caused by the bacterium, Clostridium botulinum, which can enter the body through contaminated wounds, infected foods, or even the air. Once inside the body this type of bacteria produces botulinum toxin, which causes muscle paralysis by interfering with the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. Botulinum toxins are currently used in a diluted, artificially-produced form as the active ingredient in Botox®. Botox® is used for certain cosmetic procedures, such as reducing the appearance of wrinkles. When injected into the overactive muscles associated with wrinkles, these muscles are prevented from contracting, which results in a temporary reduction in the visibility of wrinkles. Treatments are typically repeated every six months when wrinkles begin to reappear. 1. Botulinum toxin causes muscle paralysis because ____________________. a) No acetylcholine enters the synaptic cleft b) Calcium is removed from the neuromuscular junction c) The acetylcholine receptors at the motor end-plate are blocked d) Sodium is removed from the synaptic cleft 2. Facial wrinkles, such as glabellar or "frown" lines, appear with aging as a result of natural, repetitive muscle contractions. Botox® helps alleviate the appearance of these wrinkles by _________________. a) Overstimulating the facial muscles to tighten their appearance b) Overstimulating the facial nerves to produce a steady contraction of the facial muscles c) Destroying the motor nerves that serve the muscles responsible for forming the wrinkles d) Relaxing the facial muscles that cause the wrinkles 3. If there was a high concentration of acetylcholine within the synaptic cleft, but little to no response at the motor end-plate, you would expect ________________ to be the responsible neuromuscular-blocking agent. a) Botulinum toxin b) Curare 4. The antidote that holds the most promise to counteract the effects of tubocurarine is one that _________________________. a) Modifies acetylcholine receptors so that they can no longer bind acetylcholine b) Modifies acetylcholine so that it is unable to bind to acetylcholine receptors c) Removes acetylcholine receptors from the end-plate d) Modifies acetylcholine receptors so that they bind acetylcholine stronger than tubocurarine

1) 2d) Relaxing the facial muscles that cause the wrinkles 3b) Curare 4)

Ch. 12 Nervous System: Neurotransmission of Graded Potentials - Read the overview and complete the interactive module. - Answer the questions below the interactive module. Changes of the membrane potential are necessary for electrical signals to be carried along a neuron's membrane. Within the receptive region, neurotransmitters bind to specific membrane receptors triggering the opening of ligand-gated ion channels. This results in the production of localized graded potentials called postsynaptic potentials, which alter the membrane potential. Postsynaptic potentials spread multidirectionally along the membrane and decrease in strength with time and distance. Read the report and answer all questions. Postsynaptic potentials occur within the receptive segment of the neuron, specifically at the cell body and dendrites. These graded potentials may be classified as either excitatory or inhibitory depending on how they affect the membrane potential. Excitatory postsynaptic potentials depolarize the membrane potential. This occurs when excitatory neurotransmitters bind to chemically gated receptors, called ligand-gated ion channels, resulting in a net influx of sodium ions. Inhibitory postsynaptic potentials hyperpolarize the membrane potential. Inhibitory neurotransmitters accomplish this by triggering the opening of ligand-gated potassium or chloride channels. Because the movement of ions is dictated by their electrochemical gradients, potassium moves out of the neuron while chloride moves into the neuron. 1. Graded potentials result from the opening of ________________. a) Ligand-gated channels b) Leakage channels c) ATP pumps d) Voltage-gated channels 2. An inhibitory postsynaptic potential results from the opening of____________________. a) Potassium and/or chloride channels b) Chloride and/or sodium channels c) Sodium and/or potassium channels

1a) Ligand-gated channels 2a) Potassium and/or chloride channels

1a) Ligand-gated channels 2c) Two EPSPs in proximity to each other

Ch. 12 Nervous System: Summation - Read the overview and complete the interactive module. - Answer the questions below the interactive module. Summation is the cumulative effect of multiple excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (PSPs) that converge in the dendrites and cell body of the postsynaptic neuron. If these PSPs cause the initial segment (also called the axon hillock) to depolarize to threshold, then an action potential occurs. Since an action potential is an all-or-none event, any subthreshold depolarizing stimuli do not result in the development of an action potential. Likewise, once threshold has been met, further depolarization has no effect on the action potential. Read the report and answer all questions. Temporal and spatial summation of all PSPs determines whether or not threshold is reached. Temporal summation refers to the amount of time between signals being sent from the same presynaptic neuron. The closer these signals are in time, the stronger the graded potential. Spatial summation refers to the relative location of multiple synapses to each other and to their relative distance from the initial segment. Certain drugs cause facilitation of a neuron. Facilitation involves an enhancement of the postsynaptic response, and caffeine is an example of a drug that leads to this phenomenon. Caffeine increases neurotransmitter release from the presynaptic neuron, thereby bringing the postsynaptic neuron closer to threshold and increasing its propensity to develop and propagate action potentials. Nicotine also causes facilitation, but by a different method. Nicotine affects neural transmission by stimulating acetylcholine receptors, which prolongs EPSPs. 1. _______________ the time between signals sent from the same presynaptic terminal increases the strength of the graded potential. This is an example of ________________ summation. a) Reducing; temporal b) Increasing; spatial c) Increasing; temporal d) Reducing; spatial 2. Substances that cause facilitation of a neuron ____________________________. a) Cause the neuron to fire that may not under the same circumstances in the absence of the facilitator b) Disable the trigger zone of the axon hillock, thereby preventing it from reaching threshold c) continually create additional ligand-gated ion channels at the receptor region d) alter the resting membrane potential of a presynaptic neuron by making it hyperpolarized 3. Assume in a laboratory you were able to isolate a neuron and remove the Acetylcholine receptors from the postsynaptic membrane. The substance _________________ would no longer cause facilitation of this neuron. a) Nicotine b) Caffeine

1a) Reducing; temporal 2a) Cause the neuron to fire that may not under the same circumstances in the absence of the facilitator 3a) Nicotine

Ch. 12 Nervous System: Excitation-Contraction Coupling - Read the overview and complete the interactive module. - Answer the questions below the interactive module. The excitation of a muscle fiber occurs when there is sufficient depolarization at the motor end-plate to produce an action potential. This electrical signal propagates along the sarcolemma and into the muscle fiber by way of the transverse tubules (T-tubules). At the triad, the electrical signal gets converted to a mechanical signal when calcium is released from channels found at the terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The Triad The triad in a skeletal muscle fiber is composed of a centrally located T-tubule flanked on both sides by the terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The spatial relationship between the DHP receptors and RyR1 embedded within at the T-tubules and SR membranes, respectively, has been the focus of scientific inquiry for several decades. It has been determined that voltage-induced conformational changes are responsible for sequentially activating these two receptors. The sequence of events involved in excitation-contraction coupling is somewhat analogous to falling dominoes. In this scenario, the action potential propagating along the sarcolemma initiates the sequence of events in the same way the movement of your hand does. Just as your hand pushes over the first domino, the voltage change across the T-tubule membrane causes a conformational change in the DHP receptor. The first falling domino knocking over the subsequent dominoes represents the conformational change of the DHP receptor initiating a subsequent allosteric change in RyR1. When RyR1 is activated, calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, leading to muscle contraction. 1. Hundreds of mutations have been identified in RyR1 that contribute to multiple muscular diseases. Assume that a new mutation was discovered that causes this receptor to continually remain open. Based on what you know about the function of this receptor, how would you expect this new mutation to impact contraction? a) This mutation will increase levels of calcium in the sarcoplasm, which will induce continued muscle contraction. b) This mutation will increase the sensitivity of the DPH receptor to voltage changes, which will induce continued muscle contraction. c) This mutation will decrease levels of calcium in the sarcoplasm, which will prevent muscle contraction. d) This mutation will decrease the sensitivity of the DPH receptor to voltage changes, which will prevent muscle contraction. 2. If it were possible to move the terminal cisternae further away from the T-tubules, it would ____________________________. a) Increase the sensitivity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, causing it to release large amounts of calcium b) Interfere with the signal required for the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum c) Prevent the voltage signal from entering the T-tubules d) Prevent the production of an action potential

1a) This mutation will increase levels of calcium in the sarcoplasm, which will induce continued muscle contraction. 2b) Interfere with the signal required for the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum

Ch. 10 Muscle Tissue: Get a Grip The condition myasthenia gravis is characterized by decreased muscle cell stimulation resulting from immunological damage to the postsynaptic surface of the motor endplate unit. This condition disproportionately affects women and on occasion is associated with a benign tumor of the thymus gland. Amy is a second-year graduate student in chemistry. She has always been physically active and enjoys running and swimming. Over the past three months, however, she has completely lost her stamina. Recently she has been troubled by double vision, experiencing it several times a day. It's even to the point now that she doesn't feel safe driving. Amy is very careful about her diet, takes a daily vitamin, and does not smoke. Her blood pressure is fine. Treatment Because a thymic tumor can be associated with myasthenia gravis, and its removal frequently helps to ameliorate the symptoms, Amy agreed to surgical removal of her thymus gland. Amy did not have immediate relief of her symptoms because the abnormal antibodies persist for several weeks. After almost six weeks, she regained much of strength and stamina. The pathologist's report was also good news; Amy's tumor was benign. Amy, however, may not be completely cured of myasthenia gravis, so she will be closely followed by her doctor. She may still require a medication that inhibits the breakdown of ACh. Medications of this type act by increasing the amount of ACh at the motor endplate and thus help sustain events of membrane depolarization. Should Amy require such a medicine, she will likely be on it the rest of her life. 1. How do medications that improve the symptoms of myasthenia gravis work? a) They directly stimulate the calcium voltage-gated channels of the sarcoplamsic reticulum to release calcium, thus initiating muscle cell contraction. b) They decrease the breakdown of acetylcholine, which results in an increased amount of ACh in the synaptic cleft and thus increased stimulus to the ACh receptors. c) They interact directly with the sodium voltage-gated channels of the muscle cell membrane to increase the intensity of the membrane depolarization. 2. Since Amy's myasthenia gravis was linked to the benign thymic tumor that was removed, why did her symptoms not immediately improve after its removal? a) Amy had developed resistance to the medications she was taking. b) The abnormal antibodies persist for several weeks, and thus her symptoms were prolonged. c) Amy's muscles had been deprived of stimulation for so long, they had withered.

1b) They decrease the breakdown of acetylcholine, which results in an increased amount of ACh in the synaptic cleft and thus increased stimulus to the ACh receptors. 2b) The abnormal antibodies persist for several weeks, and thus her symptoms were prolonged.

Ch. 10 Muscle Tissue: Sliding Filament Mechanism of Muscle Contraction - Read the overview and complete the interactive module. - Answer the questions below the interactive module. Individual muscle fibers contain hundreds to thousands of myofibrils. Each myofibril is composed of multiple concurrent sarcomeres. The specific arrangement of the thin and thick filaments within each sarcomere gives skeletal muscle its striated appearance. The sliding filament mechanism of muscle contraction describes how myosin crossbridge heads bind to and pull actin towards the center of each sarcomere, effectively shortening the muscle as it contracts. This type of muscle contraction is referred to as a concentric contraction. Rigor mortis Rigor mortis is the post-mortem stiffening of skeletal muscles. Rigor mortis can be used during forensic investigations to estimate the time of death, since the stiffening appears approximately 3-4 hours after death, peaks at approximately 12 hours after death, and disappears about 2-3 days post-mortem. Once tissues die they cease the production of ATP, which is the molecule required to detach myosin crossbridge heads from actin. In the absence of ATP, the breakage of the link between actin and myosin does not occur, and the thick and thin myofilaments remain bound to each other in an immobilized, rigid fashion. Rigor mortis persists until the muscle tissue decomposes. 1. The presence of calcium in the sarcoplasm is directly responsible for ____________________. a) Decreasing the length of the myosin myofilament b) Energizing the myosin heads c) Exposing the binding sites on actin d) The movement of actin towards the M line 2. Rigor mortis occurs after death because ____________________. a) No calcium is present to bind to the regulatory protein tropomyosin b) Detachment of crossbridges does not occur due to the lack of ATP c) The power stroke becomes stronger after death d) Actin binding sites become permanently blocked so that crossbridge formation cannot occur

1c) Exposing the binding sites on actin 2b) Detachment of crossbridges does not occur due to the lack of ATP

Ch. 10 Muscle Tissue: Get a Grip The condition myasthenia gravis is characterized by decreased muscle cell stimulation resulting from immunological damage to the postsynaptic surface of the motor endplate unit. This condition disproportionately affects women and on occasion is associated with a benign tumor of the thymus gland. Amy is a second-year graduate student in chemistry. She has always been physically active and enjoys running and swimming. Over the past three months, however, she has completely lost her stamina. Recently she has been troubled by double vision, experiencing it several times a day. It's even to the point now that she doesn't feel safe driving. Amy is very careful about her diet, takes a daily vitamin, and does not smoke. Her blood pressure is fine. Doctor's Visit Her physical exam did not initially reveal any abnormality. Her doctor had her squeeze his hand and her grip strength was just fine. However, when he had her do it five times in a row, the strength of her grip diminished with each successive effort. He gave her a hand exerciser and asked her to squeeze it completely closed as many times as she could. After just six squeezes, she could no longer close the exerciser. Her doctor ordered a blood test and a CT (computerized tomography) scan of her chest. The results of the blood tests showed that Amy's blood contained several groups of antibodies directed against the motor endplate acetylcholine (ACh) receptors, and the chest scan revealed a tumor of her thymus. Amy was suffering from the autoimmune disease known as myasthenia gravis. (The medical term is actually a union of both Greek and Latin words: myasthenia from the Greek meaning weak muscles and gravis from Latin meaning serious.) 1. Myasthenia gravis represents a type of disease called a) Nutritional deficiency. b) Neuromuscular endplate malfunction due to overuse. c) Immune mediated. d) Traumatic injury of muscle cells. e) Vascular disease of the muscle. 2. The aspect of Amy's history and physical exam that caused her doctor to pursue further tests was a) Her difficulty driving. b) Her irregular heart beat. c) Her history of recent swimming. d) Weakness and a lack of stamina developed rapidly while testing grip strength.

1c) Immune mediated. 2d) Weakness and a lack of stamina developed rapidly while testing grip strength.

Ch. 12 Nervous System: Propagation of an Action Potential - Read the overview and complete the interactive module. - Answer the questions below the interactive module. The generation of an action potential, or nerve impulse, occurs once sufficient EPSPs have depolarized the neuron to threshold. The action potential begins at the initial segment (also known as the axon hillock) and travels down the length of the axon towards the axon terminal. Each unmyelinated segment of the axonal membrane goes through a series of events which generates an action potential. These include depolarization, repolarization, hyperpolarization, and return to the resting membrane potential. Each event results in specific changes of the membrane potential caused by the opening and closing of voltage-gated sodium and potassium channels. Read the report and answer all questions. Axons are the only region of a neuron that may be myelinated. Schwann cells are the specific glial cells within the peripheral nervous system that form myelin. These cells form individual myelin sheaths that wrap tightly around the axon in regular intervals. Adjacent to the segments of myelin are exposed regions of the axon referred to as the nodes of Ranvier. Saltatory conduction in myelinated neurons is much faster than continuous conduction, which occurs in unmyelinated neurons. Myelination acts as an insulator along the axon, preventing the leakage of charge across the membrane. This allows the local currents to be maintained and transferred from one node of Ranvier to another. In contrast, the local currents do not travel as far and take longer to reach threshold in unmyelinated neurons. High concentrations of voltage-gated sodium channels are localized within the nodes of Ranvier and are generally lacking within the myelinated regions. This arrangement leads to detrimental consequences in individuals suffering from demyelinating diseases, which include any disorder that causes damage of the myelin sheath. In these diseases, an action potential does not propagate down the axon because the voltage-gated sodium channels are too far apart. Charge will leak across the membrane where the myelin once was, and the nodes of Ranvier containing the voltage-gated sodium channels will not reach threshold. Multiple sclerosis is the most common demyelinating disease. The immune system of individuals suffering from this disease attacks the myelin sheaths found in the central nervous system. This progressive disease is more common in women and is typically diagnosed between ages 20 and 40. Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare condition in which the myelin sheaths in the peripheral nervous system are attacked by the immune system. Symptoms of this disease range from slight tingling and weakness of the legs to fluctuation in heart rate and blood pressure, which can be life-threatening. Death may occur if the nerves leading to the respiratory muscles become damaged and asphyxiation results. 1. Action potentials occur ____________________________. a) In both unmyelinated and myelinated regions of an axon and the dendrites b) In myelinated regions of an axon c) In the unmyelinated regions of an axon 2. Demyelinating diseases cause a(n) ______________ in the conduction velocity of action potentials. a) Increase b) Decrease 3. If demyelination occurs, why don't action potentials occur at regions of the axon that were previously myelinated? a) A much thicker plasma membrane is present within these regions of the axon. b) A much thinner plasma membrane is present within these regions of the axon. c) These regions contain too high of a concentration of voltage-gated sodium channels to work appropriately. d) These regions lack the appropriate concentration of voltage-gated sodium channels.

Ch. 12 Nervous System: Neuron Anatomy and Resting Membrane Potential - Read the overview and complete the interactive module. - Answer the questions below the interactive module. A multipolar neuron is composed of a cell body, an axon, and hundreds of dendrites. Each neuron receives numerous inputs at the receptive region, which includes both the dendrites and cell body. Neurons send signals down the axon toward the synaptic knob. Resting neurons require a membrane potential in order to send or receive electrical signals. A typical neuronal resting membrane potential is -70 mV, indicating that the inside of the plasma membrane is more negative relative to the outside. The resting membrane potential is established by the Na+/K+ pump and by the sodium and potassium leakage channels. The leakage channels allow for ions to diffuse down their electrochemical gradients, while the Na+/K+ pump moves ions against their gradients. The Na+/K+ pump establishes the K+ and Na+ gradients, which drive the diffusion of these ions through leakage channels. Although both Na+ and K+ diffusion play a role in establishing the resting membrane potential, potassium diffusion is more important. 1. Normally, sodium and potassium leakage channels differ because ___________________. a) Sodium leakage channels are voltage-gated, but potassium leakage channels are ligand-gated b) Sodium leakage channels require ATP to transport ions, but potassium leakage channels do not c) Sodium ions diffuse through leakage channels into the cell, but potassium ions diffuse through leakage channels out of the cell d) Sodium leakage channels always remain open, but potassium leakage channels must be specifically activated to open 2. A resting membrane potential of -70 mV indicates that the ________________. a) Negative ions are only present within the cytosol and are lacking in the extracellular fluid b) Charges lining the inside of the plasma membrane are negative compared to the charges lining the outside c) Negative ions will always move into a cell d) Positive ions outnumber the negative ions within the cytosol

1c) Sodium ions diffuse through leakage channels into the cell, but potassium ions diffuse through leakage channels out of the cell 2b) Charges lining the inside of the plasma membrane are negative compared to the charges lining the outside

Ch. 10 Muscle Tissue: Get a Grip The condition myasthenia gravis is characterized by decreased muscle cell stimulation resulting from immunological damage to the postsynaptic surface of the motor endplate unit. This condition disproportionately affects women and on occasion is associated with a benign tumor of the thymus gland. Amy is a second-year graduate student in chemistry. She has always been physically active and enjoys running and swimming. Over the past three months, however, she has completely lost her stamina. Recently she has been troubled by double vision, experiencing it several times a day. It's even to the point now that she doesn't feel safe driving. Amy is very careful about her diet, takes a daily vitamin, and does not smoke. Her blood pressure is fine. Muscle Contraction Muscle contraction is the result of a complex set of events: Once the decision is made to move a muscle, a neural impulse is sent to the muscle cell. At the synaptic knob, ACh is released from the nerve axon. It traverses the synaptic cleft and binds to its receptor on the motor endplate of the muscle cell membrane. Sodium channels open on the cell membrane, allowing an influx of sodium and membrane depolarization. The subsequent opening of the voltage-gated sodium channels propagates the depolarization to the T-tubules of the muscle cell. Release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum causes the muscle cell to contract. In the case of myasthenia gravis, antibodies are made that react with the ACh receptor of the muscle cell membrane. Some antibodies block the receptor so ACh will not bind, while others cause the receptors to clump and be removed from the cell membrane. The ultimate effect is to greatly reduce the ability of the ACh to trigger the initial sodium influx and subsequent membrane depolarization. Depletion of the ACh from the nerve endings and motor endplate area result in the symptoms of myasthenia gravis. The progressive weakness that Amy experienced when she was asked to repeatedly squeeze the hand exerciser indicates the exhaustion of the ACh in the motor endplate. Likewise, the progressive weakness of the muscles surrounding Amy's eyes, those that coordinate eye movement, caused her double vision. Amy's story is quite representative of myasthenia gravis, and fortunately she did not experience life-threatening complications. In severe cases, weakness and paralysis of the muscles of respiration can lead to death. Heart muscle cells are not affected by the antibodies of myasthenia gravis, since its contraction is not dependent on ACh and the heart has its own conduction system. 1. The abnormal antibodies made by patients with myasthenia gravis interact with what portion of the motor endplate unit? a) The sodium voltage-gated channels b) The sarcoplamsic reticulum calcium gates c) Acetylcholine receptors on the motor nerve axon d) Acetylcholine receptors on the muscle cell membrane 2. Symptoms and/or complications of myasthenia gravis include all of the following except: a) Weakness of cardiac muscle contractions. b) Loss of stamina. c) Double vision. d) Death due to weakness of respiratory muscles. e) Progressive muscle fatigue and weakness.

1d) Acetylcholine receptors on the muscle cell membrane 2)Weakness of cardiac muscle contractions.

Ch. 10 Muscle Tissue: Transmissive Segment - Read the overview and complete the interactive module. - Answer the questions below the interactive module. The action potential is an electrical signal that begins at the axon hillock and travels down the length of the axon towards the axon terminal. Once the action potential enters this transmissive segment of the neuron, it causes the release of neurotransmitters by exocytosis. This series of events results in the transfer of an electrical signal into a chemical signal. Neurotransmitters are released by the presynaptic neuron into the synaptic cleft. Neurotransmitters diffuse across the synaptic cleft and bind to specific receptors on the plasma membrane of the postsynaptic neuron. The binding of neurotransmitters opens ligand-gated ion channels, which results in the production of graded potentials. Neurotransmitters cease to cause graded potentials when they are no longer bound to a receptor. Unbound neurotransmitters are removed from the synaptic cleft by several different mechanisms including: diffusion away from the receptor, uptake into the presynaptic axon terminal, or enzymatic degradation. Acetylcholinesterase is an example of an enzyme that breaks down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into acetate and choline. Choline is then transported back across the presynaptic axon terminal where it can be reused to synthesize new molecules of acetylcholine. Read the report and answer all questions. Neurons need to transfer materials back and forth between the cell body and the axon terminal to function properly. This type of intracellular transport is referred to as axonal transport. Axonal transport depends upon microtubule "tracks" that run the length of the axon and associated motor proteins. Cellular substances and organelles that are produced in the cell body travel in the anterograde direction, moving towards the axon terminal. Other materials, such as recycled membrane vesicles, growth factors, and other chemical signals, migrate back to the cell body through retrograde movement. Both anterograde and retrograde axonal transport are important and necessary to maintain the health of the neuron. Some pathogens take advantage of retrograde transport by "hitching a ride" to the cell body where they infect the neuron. Examples of such pathogens include: tetanus toxin and the herpes simplex, rabies, and polio viruses. 1. If a drug was developed that interfered with the proper functioning of the microtubules found within the axons of neurons, how would you expect this to impact axonal transport processes? a) Anterograde transport would cease. b) The production of substances within the cell body would cease. c) Retrograde transport would cease. d) Both anterograde and retrograde transport processes would cease. 2. The enzyme choline acetyltransferase catalyzes the reaction between acetyl-CoA and choline resulting in the formation of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. This enzyme is produced within the cell body of neurons, but the synthesis of acetylcholine occurs within the axon terminals. Which statement best describes the axonal transport mechanism associated with this process? a) Choline acetyltransferase is transported in the retrograde direction. b) Acetylcholine is transported in the anterograde direction. c) Choline acetyltransferase is transported in the anterograde direction. d) Acetylcholine is transported in the retrograde direction. 3. Suppose that a new virus is discovered that specifically infects motor neurons. Assume that this virus enters neurons in conjunction with choline molecules. Once inside the cell, the virus enters the nucleus and replicates. Which direction describes the axonal transport route taken by this virus? a) Retrograde transport b) Anterograde transport

1d) Both anterograde and retrograde transport processes would cease. 2c) Choline acetyltransferase is transported in the anterograde direction. 3a) Retrograde transport
