Skeletal muscle has a defined contraction period, causing the full contraction of every stimulated fiber. (8 pts)
Part 1 - What determines the length of time during which the fiber contracts?
Part 2 - What ends the contraction, so relaxation can begin? (not including the termination of the NMJ stimulation)
Part 3 - Taking the previous two parts, and now adding in that the NMJ has stopped inducing depolarizations at the motor end plate, describe the events as the contraction cycle (each single twitch) ends.
Part 4 - Taking the previous three parts, and now adding in that the NMJ continues to induce depolarizations at the motor end plate, explain the generation of increased muscle tension as summation occurs.

Discussion Question
1. Larraine makes many financial choices that others are critical of: not selling her jewelry, spending her food stamps on lobster, paying for cable TV instead of saving. From Larraine’s perspective, why do these choices make sense? What do these choices mean to her? What does Matt mean when he says that Larraine spends money because she is poor and not the other way around (i.e. she's poor because of her spending)? Have you ever spent money you didn't really have on something you really didn't need? Why?

EXPERIMENT 11 CASE STUDY: BLOOD
A 52-year old man weighing 60kg is taking 100mg Iron supplement every night due to his mild Anemia. He noticed that the color of his stool became dark brown to black and tarry, with a sudden change in consistency. He decided to stop taking Iron supplements however, his condition is still the same as well as the color of his stool. He then consulted the doctor after a week, as it is accompanied by persistent abdominal discomfort and constipation.
Questions:
(1) What chemical test can be used to detect blood in the stool sample? Explain. (2 points)
(2) What is the principle and expected result of the tests? (2 points)
(3) What will be the confirmatory test for the detection of blood in the stool sample? (1 point)
(4) What is insufficient in patients with Anemia? Explain. (2 points)
(5) What are the functions of white blood cells in our body? Explain. (2 points)
