of spontaneous contractions and the response to stimulating the nerves at 20 Hz with both a voltage that produced only a modest response and the voltage that produced the maximal response. 1) Briefly describe the response of the ileum when it is unstimulated and during stimulation of the nerves. It is shown that the rabbit ileum has a constant rate of contractions and relaxations‚ when it is not stimulated. However there is a significant drop in the amplitude of the contractions‚ when the ileum

Textbook: Neural Reflexes * all neural reflexes begin with stimulus that activates sensory receptor * receptor sends info in form of AP through sensory neurons to CNS * CNS: integrating center that evaluates all incoming info and selects appropriate response * Initiates AP in efferent neurons to direct response of muscles or glands (effectors) * Negative feedback: * Feedback signals from muscle or joint receptors keep CNS continuously informed of changing body position

1. Consider the equation F = DP/R. It describes the flow (F) of fluid in a tube in which there is a pressure difference (DP) between the two ends and a resistance (R) to flow. The equation indicates that(2.0 Score ) A.the flow of fluid from point A to point B in a tube depends upon the difference in pressure between A and B. B.the flow of fluid in a tube depends upon the absolute pressure at the beginning of the tube. C.the greater the resistance to flow in a tube‚ the greater the flow for any

Strychnine act on the glycine receptors‚these are inhibitory receptors when they stimulate chloride channel open‚chlorine move inside and cause hyperpolarization normally.But strychnine block these glycine receptors or acts as antagonist for these receptors.As a result chloride channel does not open and no hyperpolarization and excitatory effect on muscles is not stopped and produce forceful contractions which are of longer duration and shortly
