Essay Questions. You have a large garden with a variety of fruits, vegetables, and flowers, and you have a problem with insects eating them. You decide to use Malathion, an organophosphate insecticide, but you are not terribly careful about protecting yourself as you are spraying. Worried, you decide to look up the action of Malathion and find that it is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. Explain how this chemical affects muscle contraction and include where it has its effect and why.

AChE is the enzyme that splits up acetylcholine or ACH. ACH is the neurotransmitter at the neuromuscular junction. If ACHE, or acetylcholinesterase, is blocked by the insecticide, it will no longer be at the synapse to break down ACH. The continued presence of ACH then causes continuous contractions until the muscle fatigues.

The stiffness that occurs at death, when actin and myosin molecules stay linked to each other in a contracted state, is due to a lack of

ATP.

Which of the following is one of the steps that ends a contraction?

Acetylcholine is broken down by acetylcholinesterase.

Essay Questions. While unloading the trunk of her car, Amy pulls a muscle. As a result, she has difficulty moving her arm. The attending physician in the emergency room tells her that she injured her latissimus dorsi muscle. Knowing that the latissimus dorsi was a back muscle, Amy doesn't understand what the muscle has to do with her injured arm. Explain the involvement of the muscle in Amy's injury.

Although the latissimus dorsi muscle is located across the back, it inserts on the humerus, the large bone of the upper arm. When the muscle contracts, it contributes to extension, adduction, and medial rotation of the humerus. All of these arm movements would be partially impaired if the muscle were damaged.

Essay Questions. Because Mary wants to enter a marathon, she decides to consult a trainer who happens to be a kinesiologist. The trainer advises her on what type of muscle fibers she needs to develop and how she should train for it. Which type of muscle fibers are involved? Briefly explain the anatomy and physiology of the trainer's advice.

As marathons require aerobic endurance, Mary would want to develop her slow fibers for long-term endurance. She would achieve this by engaging in activities that involve long-term mild to moderately intense workouts involving mostly leg and postural muscles, such as jogging, biking, swimming, and core exercises. Repeated long-term stimulation will help the slow fibers develop more mitochondria and a higher concentration of aerobic enzymes as well as slightly increase the size and strength of the muscles (hypertrophy).
