In excitation-contraction coupling‚ the transverse tubules function to conduct an action potential into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. During muscle contraction‚ the I band shortens or narrows What event causes troponin to regain its original shape in muscle relaxation? return of Ca2+ into the sarcoplasmic reticulum A storage form

(1) Is affirmative action policy morally defensible? Explain. Affirmative action refers to the policy being implemented to create equality within racism‚ religion‚ sexuality and colour.It is being discussed in South Africa that the policies focus on employment‚ education and health programs that disadvanted people and women have equal opportunities in the work place. President John Kennedy of United Nations signed it on March 1961 that government employers "not discriminate against‚ any employee

Nerve Impulses ACTIVITY 1 The Resting Membrane Potential 1. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out of the neuron through the K+ leak channels. If the extracellular K+ increases then the concentration of intracellular K+ will decrease causing a decrease in the steepness of the concentration gradient and fewer K+ ions would be drawn out. 2. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value. How well did

agents produce‚ called fasciculation‚ are forceful enough to be seen. During the second phase‚ muscles stop responding to acetylcholine‚ proving that neuromuscular blockade is in effect. When depolarizing agents are used‚ they still prompt the action potential to occur; this means that the neurons will still send information. (Source) However‚ even though the neurons are still working‚ the depolarizing agent causes the effector site to become desensitized‚ allowing the block to be successful. In comparison
