- Ca2+ dependent myosin phosphorylation

Contraction of skeletal muscle relies on ________ for modulating action myosin interaction (cross-bridge formation)

Allows the lens to become more spherical

Contraction of the ciliary muscles of the eye

In most people, which of the following functions are dependent primarily upon the Broca`s area?

Ventral roots of spinal nerves

Motor impulses are transmitted by:

- Ca2+

Repeated stimulation of a skeletal muscle fiber causes a sustained concentration (tetanus). Accumulation of which solute in intracellular fluid is responsible for the tetanus ?

Consists of large myelinated fibers

Sensory information is carried through one of two alternative sensory pathways: Dorsal columnmedial lemniscal system and anterolateral system. Which of the following statements is not true concerning the function of anterolateral system?

Brainstem

This part of the CNS contains the midbrain, pons and medulla Oblongata. It provides a pathway for ascending and descending tracts:

B+C

Use the drawing of an action potential below with time intervals labelled A-D to answer the following question: the absolute refractory period is ?

Interpret sounds

Wernicke's area in the brain is associated with the ability to:

- -70mV

What is a typical resting potential of a Neuron ?

- Intracellular organelle that stores calcium ions

What is the function of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) ?

Proprioceptors

What structure detects the amount of stretch or tension in skeletal muscles, tendons and joints ?

- Ligand-gated Cation - selective channel

What type of ion channel is enriched in postsynaptic membrane of chemical synapses and is able to bind a neurotransmitter ?

Binary (digital) representation of the neuronal information, each spike is either all (1) or known (0)

Action potential are the Neuron output. Action potentials are also known as spikes. These spikes are:

(All three) - require the actions of the brain - require the actions of the PNS - not always include an interneuron

Reflex loop:

The knee jerk reflex is an example of a stretch reflex

Regarding reflexes:

- Potassium

The outward movement of which ionic species is responsible in part for the falling phase of an action potential ?

Hypothalamus

The part of the brain concerned with water balanced, appetite and regulating body temperature is the:

central nervous system

The portion of the nervous system that integrates sensory information in the:

- By increasing the diameter of the nerve - By myelinating the nerve

The velocity of conduction of action potential along a nerve will be increased ? (more than one answer is correct)

A+C (A=transmitter is secreted C=enters the nerve terminal)

When the membrane of the axon terminal depolarises ...

- Elevation of intracellular calcium for excitation contraction coupling

Which characteristics or component is shared by skeletal muscle and smooth muscle ?

A+B (A=voltage-gated K+ channels B=voltage-gated Na+ channels)

Which of the following channels must be localised to the node of Ranvier for normal propagation of the action potential along the axon ?

Küpffer cell and neuron

Which of the following is not a central nervous system glial cell ?

Associated with the motor activities of the body

Which of the following is not an aspect of declarative memory ?

- it's never tested during a physical exam to determine the general health of the motor portion of the nervous system - the neural center of this reflex is located in the medulla
