-There are no sarcomeres in smooth muscle. -Thick and thin filaments are arranged in various directions. Note:Smooth muscle does not have sarcomeres which allow thick and thin filaments to slide further along eachother producing greater muscle contraction. Additionally, thick and thin filaments are arranged in various directions to allow the muscle to contract in multiple directions. Calmodulin would not affect the total contraction distance or direction of contraction. While smooth muscle does not require as much ATP because of its 'latching' this also would not affect the total contraction distance or direction of contraction.

.25

If Muscle A were half the radius of Muscle B, by what factor is the force generated by A different from B, assuming a circular cross-section for the muscles?

0.25 Math: Force is proportional to cross-sectional area, so F = k*pi*R^2, where k is a constant, F is force and R is radius. Therefore: F of A / F of B = kπR^2 / kπ(2R)^2 = 1/4=0.25

the rate of diffusion for a molecule that fluxes across a 1mm x 1mm area of membrane is 5 Moles/s and the membrane has a thickness of 10 nm. What rate of diffusion (in Moles/s) would you predict if the molecular size were to double?

0.5 Note: According to Fick's Law, the rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to membrane thickness. So, a 2-fold increase in thickness generates a 1/2 change in the rate of diffusion. In other words, the final rate = (1/2) * (the initial rate).

Select the correct order of responses your body will exhibit if visiting Joshua Tree National Park when the temperature is 38C (100F). ["signal travels through ascending tract of spinal cord", "efferent pathway stimulates sympathetic nervous system", "cutaneous thermoreceptors are excited", "vasodilation of blood vessels", "hypothalamus integrates sensory info"]

1. "cutaneous thermoreceptors are excited", 2. "signal travels through ascending tract of spinal cord", 3. hypothalamus integrates sensory info"] 4. "efferent pathway stimulates sympathetic nervous system", 5. "vasodilation of blood vessels", Note: Sensory receptors recognize condition(s) first and become activated, which send an action potential into the spinal cord which then 'ascends' along the ascending tract to the brain where the hypothalamus integrates the sensory information and if it determines the current state is too far from the set point it sends out an efferent signal to the prompt some change, in this case it is vasodilation of blood vessels which allow you to dissipate heat by bringing blood to the surface of your skin.

Imagine a situation where the equilibrium potential for Na+ is equal to +122 mV. By what factor is the outside concentration of Na+ greater than the inside?

100. Math: Use formula eq potential = 61 log(base10) * ([Na] out/[Na]in) 122= 61 * log(base10) * ([Na] out/[Na]in) 10^(122/61) = 10^(logbase10 * [Na] out/[Na]in) [Na] out/[Na]in = 100

Assume that two muscles equal in length, but muscle B has 4 times the radius of muscle A. By what factor is the maximum force of B greater than A? Enter your answer in decimal notation (e.g. 44, or 0.44, not 1/4) without units.

16 Math: Muscle force is proportional to the cross-sectional area (pi*R^2) and NOT to muscle length, so F = k*pi*R^2, where k is a constant. Therefore, forceB/forceA= kπ(4R)^2 / kπR^2 = 16

Imagine two epithelial membranes that serve to transport a nutrient via chemical diffusion. Membrane A is twice as thick as Membrane B, but A is exposed to a solute concentration difference that is four-times greater than Membrane B. By what factor is the rate of diffusion for A greater than B? Hint: Solve for (rate of diffusion in A) / (rate of diffusion in B)

2 Math: The concentration difference for A is 4 times that of B, which favors a 4-fold greater rate of diffusion by A. However, B has half the membrane thickness of A, which suggests that A has 1/2 the rate of B. When we combine the two conditions we should get that A will have 4 * (1/2) = 2 times the rate of diffusion of B.

Imagine the rate of diffusion for a molecule that fluxes across a 1mm x 1mm area of membrane is 5 Moles/s and the membrane has a thickness of 10 nm. What rate of diffusion (in Moles/s) would you predict if the molecular size were to double?

Imagine you monitored your heart rate so that you could estimate the duration of the pacemaker potential. Assume that the action potential is always 300 ms long, and you recorded 36 heart beats over 18 seconds. What is the average duration of the pacemaker potential in ms?

200 Note: The total duration of a recording (T) is equal to the beat period times the number of heart beats (n) and the beat period is the duration of the action potential (AP), plus the pacemaker potential (PP), so: T=n(τAP+τPP),where τAP is the period of the AP(0.3s) andτPP is the period of the PP. So . . .18=36(0.3+τPP) τPP=18/36−0.3 τPP=0.5−0.3=0.2s=200ms

If a myocardial contractile cell has a refractory period of 250 ms, what is the fastest heart rate that it should be theoretically capable of (in beats per second)?

4 Note: At the fastest rate, the beat period would be equal to the refractory period (0.25 s). The heart rate is the inverse of the beat period, which is 1/0.25 = 4.

If a person's normal pulmonary dead space is 150 ml and tidal volume is 500 ml, what would be their tidal volume in milliliters to achieve the same volume of inhaled air reaching the alveoli if that person was breathing through a snorkel with a volume of 230 ml?

730 Notes: Remember that the trachea provides 'dead space' within the pulmonary system because air must move in through the trachea but gas exchange does not occur within the trachea, only at the alveoli. By using a snorkel you have increased the dead space of the system by adding in another tube that does not allow for gas exchange. So in order to bring the same amount of air (500ml - 150ml = 350ml) to the alveoli you would have to increase your tidal volume by the newly added dead space (500ml + 230ml = 730ml). Thus to achieve a volume in the alveoli of 350 ml while using the snorkel the person would have to maintain a tidal volume of 730 ml.

Choose the answer that best describes what a central pattern generator (CPG) is and its function. A. A group of interneurons which helps to regulate ventilation only. B. A group of interneurons that produces spontaneous oscillatory patterns. C. Produces rhythmic activity without efferent (descending) inputs.

B. A group of interneurons that produces spontaneous oscillatory patterns. Note: A central pattern generator (CPG) is a group of interneurons generally found within the spinal cord that produces a spontaneous (without descending or efferent command) rhythmic or oscillatory pattern (behavior). "A group of interneurons which helps to regulate ventilation only." is NOT correct because we have CPG's that help us walk, run and do many other functions including reflexes besides just breathing. "Produces rhythmic activity without efferent (descending) inputs." correctly describes a CPG FUNCTION but does not describe that it is a collection of interneuron(s), or 'WHAT' it is. So the best answer for this question is "A group of interneurons that produces spontaneous oscillatory patterns."

Match the function to the appropriate cardiac cell(s); autorhythmic (pacemaker) cells, contractile cells, or both. Creates heart beat through autonomous activation.: Generates force: Has `funny' (If) channels:

Creates heart beat through autonomous activation: Autorhythmic Generates force: Contractile Has `funny' (If) channels: Autorhythmic Note: Autorhythmic cardiac cells are responsible for autonomously generating action potentials at set intervals (hence the name) to then stimulate the contractile cardiac cells. The contractile cardiac cells contribute to significant force and contraction of the heart. The funny channels If are present in the autorhythmic (pacemaker) cells and allow for the pacemaker potential that gradually increases to -40mV to trigger the Ca2+ channels.

Using the above Hemoglobin-Oxygen Saturation curves answer the following question. Given that intense exercise produces lactic acid and CO2 that lowers the pH. Is it TRUE of FALSE that the blue curve (higher curve) would represent the Hb-O2 saturation curve during intense exercise and the red curve represents the conditions at rest?

False lowering pH shifts the curve to the left, lower affinity Note: The Bohr effect is the physiological phenomenon of reduced Hb-O2 saturation at low pH or high concentrations of CO2. Both of these cause a RIGHT-ward shift in the Hb-O2 saturation curve since more O2 will be released at the same partial pressure of oxygen (PO2). See the below diagram explaining the directions of the shift based off pH, CO2 and temperature (disregard the HbF and 2,3 DPG).

A carrier protein using secondary active transport hydrolyzes ATP to move molecules against their concentration gradient.. T or F

False. The electrochemical gradients set up by primary active transport store energy, which can be released as the ions move back down their gradients. Secondary active transport uses the energy stored in these gradients to move other substances against their own gradients.
