Question
- What is affected by the electrical signal sent by the third structure? (This will be the fourth structure in the arc.)
- Where is the cell body of the fourth structure located?
- What is affected by the electrical signal sent by the fourth structure? (This will be the fifth structure in the arc.)
- What does the fifth structure do in response to that electrical signal and how does this action protect you?
- Describe a situation where a reflex arc would be activated that is not described in your lesson. Assume that the reflex arc has five components to it. Please choose a reflex that involves a body part below the neck. (If you have trouble with this, do an internet search for information on reflex arcs.)

Group of answer choices These antibodies would target nAChRs for destruction leading to lower sodium influx in muscle cells. These antibodies would target nAChRs, changing their shape to allow calcium instead of sodium through. These antibodies would target nAChRs, changing their shape to allow only potassium through. These antibodies would target nAChRs aiding acetylcholine in its binding to receptors, leading to increased sodium influx in muscle cells. pick one answerarrow_forwardChoose the type of information that the soft organ smooth muscle first order neuron are sending to the central nervous system: 1, sterogotic information 2, stretch information 3, proprioceptive information 4, temperature information This is the second time in 10 min I asked this question, the fomer one been rejected due to incompleted.

- A taser is a device used by police to control unruly criminals by delivering a large electrical current into the body. This electrical current is able to temporarily paralyze the criminal. A Biology 30 student hypothesizes that this temporary paralysis is caused by the neurons in the body all simultaneously becoming unable to engage in a refractory period. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Provide your rationale from the point of view of Na+ ion and K+ ion movement OR from the point of view of processes that do or do not occur properly in the criminal's neural synapses.arrow_forward_____ neurons carry impulses from the muscle to the CNS, while _____ neurons complete the loop by carrying impulses from the CNS to the muscle.

- The reflex arc is the fastest way the body has to move a body part from danger or away from the source of pain. Have you ever noticed your own reflex response? Did you notice that you felt the pain after you yanked your hand away from the source of pain? Which is the sequence of structures involved in a reflex response? a. motor neurons → effectors → brain → sensory neurons → interneurons b. effectors → sensory neurons → brain → motor neurons c. sensory neurons → interneurons → motor neurons → effectors d. sensory neurons → motor neurons → interneurons → effectorsarrow_forwardYou are a famous researcher working in your lab. You isolate a piece of muscle (call it Muscle A) and examine its innervations. You find a short preganglionic neuron synapsing onto a long postganglionic neuron, which synapses onto the muscle. Then you examine Muscle B and find a single neuron innervating it. Remembering your favourite physiology class, you instantly recognize what types of neuronal connections you will find on both Muscle A and Muscle B. First give 2 characteristics of the synapse onto Muscle A. Then give 2 ways in which the synapse of Muscle B will be different.arrow_forwardNeuroscience Students are celebrating the end of the year and have gotten together for a few ice-old Pepsi’s.
