Predict Question
Stop & Think Questions
Skeletal muscles are connected to bones by
You correctly answered: tendons.
1
Skeletal muscles are composed of hundreds to thousands of individual cells called
You correctly answered: fibers.
2
The term motor unit refers to
You correctly answered: one motor neuron and all of the skeletal muscle fibers it innervates.
3
The motor neuron and muscle fiber intersect at what is called
You correctly answered: the neuromuscular junction.
4
A twitch is
You correctly answered: one contractile response to a single action potential.
5
Predict Question: Will changes to the stimulus voltage alter the duration of the latent period?
Your answer: No, changing the stimulus voltage will not change the latent period duration.
1
What is the period of time that elapses between the generation of an action potential and
the start of muscle tension development in a muscle fiber?
You correctly answered: The latent period.
1
What occurs during the latent period of these isometric contractions?

Review Sheet Results
You correctly answered: All the steps of excitation-contraction coupling occur.
An action potential in a motor neuron triggers the release of which neurotransmitter?
You correctly answered: acetylcholine.
1
The term skeletal muscle fiber refers to
You correctly answered: an individual skeletal muscle cell.
2
The graded depolarization in the skeletal muscle fiber that is elicited in response to one
action potential from the motor neuron is called
You correctly answered: an EPP (end-plate potential).
3
Which of the following is not a phase of a skeletal muscle twitch?
You correctly answered: hyperpolarization phase.
4
A skeletal muscle twitch is
You correctly answered: one contractile response to a single action potential.
5
Which of the following correctly matches the twitch phase with its definition?
You correctly answered: the contraction phase: the time between the end of the latent
period and peak muscle tension.
6
Define the terms skeletal muscle fiber, motor unit, skeletal muscle twitch, electrical stimulus,
and latent period.
Your answer:
skeletal muscle fiber: single muscle cell that consists of skeletal muscle. motor unit: a motor neuron with the muscle fiber it innervates.
skeletal muscle twitch: response to a single action potential.
electrical stimulus: makes the muscles contract.

QUESTION 5
While tetanus is the term we use to describe summation of twitches, it is also a disease caused by the bacteria Clostridium tetani. These bacteria
produce a toxin that causes inappropriate firing in neurons. Patients infected with this bacteria can experience what is known as "lockjaw" where
the jaw gets stuck in place or violently contracts to the point where people can experience muscle tears or even shattered teeth. Given this
information about tetanus, what is the likely explanation for how this bacterial disease causes the problems described?
O The toxin causes inappropriate closing of sodium channels leading to rapid contractions that summate and eventually form a state of
tetanus.
O The toxin causes the sarcoplasmic reticulum to open inappropriately leading to contraction of the muscles and causing issues for those
infected.
O The toxin causes the muscle to repolarize slower leading to longer periods of contraction where the muscles are…
