wasting away of muscle tissue
atrophy
hypertrophy
lactic acidosis
unfused tetanus
Muscle fatigue is primarily due to a build-up of ______ during anaerobic respiration.
acetylcholine
ATP
creatine phosphate
lactic acid
occurs because there is no ATP to remove myosin cross bridges after death
atrophy
muscle spasms
myotonic dystrophy
rigor mortis
Inherited muscle-destroying diseases characterized by degeneration of individual muscle fibers (usually voluntary)
Lactic acidosis
Muscular dystrophy
Myasthenia gravis
Rigor mortis
autoimmune disease that attacks acetylcholine receptors leading to muscle weakness
Moebius disease
Muscular dystrophy
Myasthenia gravis
Sarin gas exposure
6th and 7th cranial nerve don’t develop; palsy on one (or both) side of face
lactic acidosis
Moebius disease
Muscular dystrophy
Myasthenia gravis
sudden, involuntary contraction of single muscle in large group
fasciculation
fibrillation
spasm
tic
muscles contract but have decreasing power to relax (become weak and waste away); symptoms more severe with each generation
atrophy
myasthenia gravis
myotonic dystrophy
rigor mortis
A ______ can be used to measure skeletal muscle contraction. (i.e. in the "chewing lab")
cardiogram
encephalogram
myogram
telegram
Sarin gas...
inhibits acetylcholinesterase.
inhibits the release of acetylcholine at the axon terminal.
inhibits the release of Ca+2 in the muscle cell
produces antibodies against acatylcholine receptors.
