Briefly describe the "All-or-None" principle.

The All-or-None principle explains how a skeletal muscle fiber will contract in response to a stimulus completlely if a certain amount of stimulus is met. If there is not sufficent stimulus above the needed threshold, then the fiber will not fire at all, making it an all or nothing type of contraction.

Describe the anatomical differences between cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebrae.

Lastly, the lumbar vertebrae are the largest, that have a large or oval body shape, no coastal facets for the ribs, large transverse processes, short spinous processes, and no transverse foramina.

In general, explain the fate of pyruvate if there is (a) sufficient oxygen; and (b) insufficient oxygen

The fate of pyruvate depends on the availability of oxygen. If there is enough oxygen, it goes to the mitochondria to continue in the aerobic repiration pathways, with it's conversion to acetyl CoA being the first step. If no oxygen is present, the pyruvate will be converted to lactate (lactic acid), but produces far less ATP and results in an acidic environment when recycled through.
