    PHYSIOLOGY ASSIGNMENT: NERVE AND MUSCLE

    1) The energy of muscle contraction is derived from the following except:


    a- ATP.
    b- muscle glycogen.
    c- lactic acid.
    d- Creatine phosphate.
    Correct answer c,guyton edition 11,pg#67

    2- The frequency needed to produce tetanus:


    a- is increased by cooling.
    b- is decreased in red muscles.
    c- is increased in fatigue.

    d- is decreased in the pale muscles.

    Correct answer :b ,guyton pg#61


    3- Depolarization:
    a- is associated with increase in membrane permeability to Na+
    b- is terminated with closure of voltage activated K+channels.
    c- is followed by muscle relaxation.
    d- is caused by K+efflux.

    Correct answer :a’guyton pg#58


    4- Action potential:
    a- is a graded potential.
    b- is produced by sub threshold stimulus.
    c- starts with repolarization caused by outward movement of Cl-
    d- is conducted slower in thin nerve fibers.
    Correct answer :d,guyton pg#58
    5- RMP of a nerve:
    a- is caused by equal distribution of ions along both sides of the membrane.
    b- is caused by selective permeability of the membrane to the ions.
    c- Na+- K+pump has no role in RMP.
    d- is caused mainly by inward movement of Na+ions.
    Correct answer:b ,guyton pg#62

    6- As regard conduction of action potential in a nerve:


    a- in thick myelinated nerve fibers can reach up to 120 meter / second.
    b- can be increased by increase calcium.
    c- can be increased by cooling.
    d- is conducted with decrement.
    Correct answer;a,guyton pg#67

    7 - Pale (fast) fiber:


    a- contains much blood capillaries.
    b- doesn't show fatigue.
    c- contains low concentration of myoglobin.
    d- depends on aerobic oxidation.
    Correct answer:c,guytonpg#69

    8- About cellular sheath ( sheath of Schwann):


    a- It acts as an electric insulator around the nerve fiber.
    b- It surrounds the axons of all neurons inside and outside the CNS.
    c- It is responsible for the color of the white matter of the spinal cord.

    d- It is essential for regeneration of the damaged verve fibers.

    Correct answer:d,guyton pg#57


    9- Myelin sheath:
    a- Present in the myelinated and unmyelinated nerve fibers.
    b- Formed of lipoprotein complex and acts as electric insulator.
    c- It is formed of successive wrappings of the membrane of Schwann cells.

    d- It is the cause of decreased conduction of nerve impulse.

    Correct answer:b,guyton pg#55


    10- Chronaxia:
    a- is the minimal stimulus which produce response after relatively long time.
    b- is the minimal time needed by the strong stimulus to produce response.
    c- is the time required to stimulate the nerve by a minimal stimulus.
    d- is the time required to stimulate the nerve by a stimulus which is double rheobase.
    Correct answer :d,guyton pg 67
