How does alcohol effect muscle reflexes?
Alcohol (Ethanol) is a CNS, or Central Nervous System, depressant. When your nerves are slowed, your muscles' reflexes will slow as well. It will cause your reaction time to be hindered.For this reason, you should not drive or operate heavy machinery under the influence of Alcohol.

Which muscle on the body does alcohol affect first?
The tongue.
Name four factors that influence contractile force and two that influence velocity and duration of contraction?
The four factors that influence contractile force are the number of muscle fibers stimulated, the relative size of the fibers, the frequency of stimulation and the degree of muscle stretch. Factors that influence the velocity and duration of contraction are the muscle fiber type, load and recruitment.
What are the causes of alcohol-related neurologic disease?
The way in which alcohol destroys muscle tissue is still not well understood. Proposed mechanisms include muscle membrane changes affecting the transport of calcium, potassium, or other minerals; impaired muscle energy.
What causes heart fibrillation death?
