Muscular System Animations 1. How do nerve impulses cause muscle contraction? Skeletal muscle is under voluntary control. Nerve impulses that originate in the central nervous system cause muscles to contract. Both neurons and muscle tissue conduct electrical current by moving ions across cellular membranes. A motor neuron ends in a synapse with a muscle fiber. The neuron releases acetylcholine and transfers the action potential to the muscle tissue. The signal will travel through the tissue

of normal modes of oscillation and to derive some properties of normal modes of waves on a string. A normal mode of a closed system is an oscillation of the system in which all parts oscillate at a single frequency. In general there are an infinite number of such modes‚ each one with a distinctive frequency and associated pattern of oscillation. Consider an example of a system with normal modes: a string of length held fixed at both ends‚ located at and . Assume that waves on this string propagate
