- After looking at the muscle tissue samples under a microscope, a classmate claims that they must come from three different organisms since they look so different. How should you respond to this claim? (a) Yes, her claim is correct. Three must belong to different organisms because all muscle is made form the same kind of cells (b) No, her claim is incorrect. The tissues in our muscles differ depending on the muscle's function, so these could be three different types of muscle in one organism (c) Her claim is somewhat correct.

- Calmodulin is found in smooth muscle cells and performs a similar function to troponin in striated muscle fibers. However, calmodulin not only gets activated by Ca2+ but also slows the release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. How might this difference relate to the different kinds of contractions smooth muscles do in comparison to striated muscles?arrow_forwardWhich of the following step(s) about the excitation of skeletal muscle is/are incorrect? 1. Acetylcholine is released and binds to motor end plate receptors 2. An action potential is created and moves down T-tubules 3. Calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum 4. Calcium ions bind to tropomyosin to shift troponin off the binding sites for cross-bridging 5. Myosin forms cross-bridges and binds with actin to pull it towards middle of sarcomerearrow_forwardWhich if the following statements are true?
