Nerve and Muscle Physiology — Flashcards

When the membrane potential is _____ mv the activation and inactivation gate of Na+ channel is open

The _____ refractory period refers to the period in which a conductive action potential cannot be generated

Resting membrane potential of a _____ muscle is -20 to -65 mV

Mitochondrial diseases mostly affect _____ and muscles, which are both highly aerobic

In muscle contraction, after the muscle cell is depolarized, the action potential travels down the _____ and to the dihydropyridine receptor

During ocular motility, an increased flow of innervation to the contracting muscle is accompanied by the decreased flow of innervation to the relaxing antagonist muscle, is known as _____ law of reciprocal innervation

Resting membrane potential of a _____ muscle is -90 mV

Slow twitch muscle fibers perform more _____ due to increased mitochondria

Rabies virus binds to nicotinic ACh receptors in the _____-synaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction

The Ca2+-calmodulin complex upregulates _____, which phosphorylates myosin and contracts smooth muscle.
