You generate a transgenic mouse that produces 10% of the normal levels of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) in the motor neurons. You perform physiological tests and find that the muscle contraction strength seems normal when you initially start the test. However, after repeated tests (e.g. running the mouse on a wheel), the rate of “muscle fatigue” seems to be higher in the mutant mice. Explain your observation in terms of what might be happening at the neuromuscular junction.

1. Which of the following pressures must always be lower than the others in order to ensure proper lung ventilation?

• Atmospheric
• Intrapleural
• Alveolar
• Intrapulmonary

2. When blood leaves tissues that are more metabolically active than when at rest, the saturation of the hemoglobin would be:

• Exactly 75%
• 100%
• 0%
• Less than 75%

3. Hemoglobin can carry both oxygen and carbon dioxide because ---------------------

• When oxygen binds to hemoglobin, the oxygen molecule is chemically altered, making it possible for carbon dioxide to bind to the oxygen molecule.
• They bind to different sites on the hemoglobin molecule.
• Both oxygen and carbon dioxide can bind to the same site on hemoglobin at the same time.
• Actually, they can’t both be carried at the same time on hemoglobin because they compete for the same binding site.

4. Which of the following is NOT likely to increase in activity in red blood cells as they travel through pulmonary capillaries in the lungs:

• Proton (H⁺) release from hemoglobin
• Carbon dioxide binding to amino acids of hemoglobin
• Bicarbonate ion movement into the cell
• Carbonic acid conversion to carbon dioxide and water

2. sensory receptor --> efferent neuron --> ventral root of spinal nerve --> ventral horn of spinal cord --> descending tract --> brainstem --> cerebrum

3. sensory receptor --> efferent neuron --> ventral root of spinal nerve --> dorsal horn of spinal cord --> ascending tract --> brainstem --> cerebrum

4. sensory receptor --> afferent neuron --> dorsal root of spinal nerve --> dorsal horn of spinal cord --> ascending tract --> brainstem --> cerebrum

sensory receptor --> afferent neuron --> dorsal root of spinal nerve --> lateral horn of spinal cord --> ascending tract --> brainstem --> cerebrum
