Skeletal muscles need nerve stimulation for contraction to occur?
Yes, they need nervous system stimulation to move. A person who has been in an accident and cut or damaged nerves to some muscles can not move those. A person who has had polio can have the same damage. The same goes for people with MS.
Synaptic vesicles are found in what?
Synaptic vesicles are found in the axon terminals of nerve cells.
What is an example of a tissue?
The answers are: 1.Epithelial Tissue2.Connective Tissue3.Muscle Tissue4.Nerve Tissue
How do skeletal and cardiac muscles differ?
cardiac is uni/binucleate, has intercalated discs, and is has branching fibers, skeletal is multinucleate and is long and cylindrically shaped.Skeletal muscle is found in the arms and legs and also other parts of your body. For skeletal muscle to contract it needs to be independly stimulated by a nerve ending. Cardiac muscle is a involantry muscle within the heart which automaticly contracts because of its self- excitable cells. It is a muscle which does NOT produce lactic acide ( normally) and it does not need a nerve to stimulate it to contract
What is a Golgi tendon organ?
True
What is sacrolemma?
The sarcolemma is the cell membrane of a muscle fiber. It surrounds and protects the muscle fiber and controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell. The sarcolemma plays a crucial role in muscle contraction and the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle fiber.
What is at the end of a skeletal muscle?
nerve
What does the Nerve Supply to a Skeletal Muscle do?
nothin
Where do nerve impulses first stimulate a skeletal muscle fiber?
The motor nerve cells control the skeletal muscle
The first step toward generating a skeletal muscle contraction is The first step toward generating a skeletal muscle contraction is?
stimulation of the muscle by a nerve ending.
The first step toward generating a skeletal muscle contraction?
stimulation of the muscle by a nerve ending.
What is the term for termination of the nerve axon on the skeletal muscle fiber?
ganglionic synapse
Which of these parts receive nerve impulses?
dendrites receive electrical and chemical signals from axon terminals.
Why are Motor nerves that supply skeletal muscle the last to be inhibited?
Because the nerve supply for muscles are mixed
What is the substance released at axon terminals?
The substance that is released at an axonal ending to propagate the nerve impulse to the next nerve or muscle is called
At what junction do nerves contact skeletal muscle fibers?
Motor neurons meet the muscle cells at neuromuscular junctions. Neurotransmitters are passed from the nerve across a synaptic cleft to the muscle to make it contract. Any damage to this nerve will mean that those cells will not contract (move).
When the what reaches the end of the axon the neurotransmitter is released?
When the _____________reaches the ends of the axon the neurotransmitter is released and it diffuses to the muscle cell membrane to combine with receptors there?Sarcolemma
