You start thinking....when was my last tetanus booster shot??? We're not talking about tetanus as defined in our studies of muscle physiology, but pathological tetanus (also known as "lockjaw"). In this condition, bacteria called Clostridia tetani (found in dirt) enter the bloodstream and grow, producing tetanus neurotoxin. The result of this toxin coursing through your bloodstream is causes the prime mover and its antagonist muscle groups (doesn't just have to be muscles of the jaw) to contract at the same time. How does the neurotoxin do that? Knowing all this, and being experts on Human reflex Physiology, do you think your reflexes (like the knee-jerk) would still function if you were suffering from "lock-jaw?"arrow_forwardWhy is it possible to get a sustained muscle contraction during tetanus?arrow_forward
