Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

10 notecards = 3 pages (4 cards per page)

front 1

  1. The T-tubule network is important in skeletal muscle due to:

----

A.

the large size of skeletal muscle cells requiring a system to bring action potentials into proximilty with internal structures

B.

it allows a large surface area by which skeletal muscle cells can bring extracellular calcium ions into the cell to activate contraction

C.

it is the fundamental contractile unit of the cell

D.

all of the above

back 1

the large size of skeletal muscle cells requiring a system to bring action potentials into proximilty with internal structures

  1. The sarcomere

A.

is present in all types of muscle cells (cardiac, smooth and skeletal)

B.

is the contractile apparatus in all types of muscle cells

C.

stores calcium for release in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue and is what gives these tissues their striated appearance

D.

gives cardiac and skeletal muscle their striated appearance, due to the arrangement of actin and myosin proteins

back 2

  1. Motor information in the corticospinal tract decussates at

A.

the medulla and the spinal cord and thus remains on the same side of the body

B.

the medulla only

C.

the spinal cord only

D.

at the medulla or the spinal cord depending on whether it is the anterior or the lateral tract

  1. The following are the steps involved in transmission at the neuromuscular junction.-----
  2. 1. Chemically gated sodium channels on the postsynapticmembrane are activated
    2. Calcium ions enter the synaptic knob
    3. Acetylcholinesterasebreaks down acetylcholine
    4. An action potential depolarizes the synaptic knob at the presynaptic membrane
    5. The synaptic knob reabsorbs choline
    6. Acetylcholine is released from storage vesicles by exocytosis
    7. Acetylcholine binds to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane

  1. Which statement correctly describes a feature of the sympathetic nervous system?

A.

preganglinonic neurons have long axons that exit the spinal cord through the white ramus

B.

preganglionic neurons utilise the neurotransmitter acetycholine and exit the spinal cord through the gray ramus

C.

postganglionic neurons typically use the neurotransmitter noradrenaline and exit the spinal cord through the white ramus communicans

D.

postganglionic neurons cell bodies are located in either the chain ganglia, collateral ganglia or adrenal medulla and are activated by the neurotransmitter acetylcholine
