  1. In one terrifying second the lights in the expansive basement file room went dark.
  2. The young file clerk was instantly disoriented—unable to even see her hand in front of her face.
  3. She waited a few long seconds and she was finally able to make out the shadowy outlines of file cabinets.
  4. She then became aware of strange noises around her.
  5. Tried as she did, she was unable to discern the source of the noises or even what they were.
  6. She decided that she had to find her way out of the shadowy basement.
  7. Though she could not see her feet, she carefully put one foot in front of the other and began to walk,
  8. Her arms outstretched to avoid bumping into the filing cabinets, she slowly worked her way through the maze of cabinets.
  9. As she continued her dark odyssey, she suddenly stopped.
  10. One of those unrecognizable noises sounded terribly familiar.
  11. The sound of labored breathing, dragging chains, and a gait characterized by a terribly dragging foot on the cold concrete floor, a low moaning growl, menacingly whispering her name.
  12. She is now outside in a thick forest.
  13. Running as fast as she can the sounds of chains and moaning racing behind her.
  14. Her heart is pounding, eyes wide, a heightened sense of terror begins to consume her but she continues to run.
  15. Her legs begin to ache.
  16. It is becoming harder and harder to keep up the pace.
  17. The menacing sounds of chains and moaning is getting closer and closer.
  18. Finally, she can run no more.
  19. She falls to the ground.
  20. As she is breathing heavily, gasping for air, the terrifying sounds of her pursuer get closer and closer.
  21. She feels vibration of the ground decrease as the monster seems to move away from her.
  22. She calms, she begins planning her next moves...but then the vibrations increase
  23. She braces herself for the worst. And then…
  24. her five year old son jumps onto the bed…”Mommy it’s time to get up!!”
  25. Damn these nightmares

After Julien was stabilized and had been given antivenom, the attending physician came to talk to the Brahims. She explained that the mechanism of action for Chironex fleckeri, commonly known as the box jellyfish, is not well understood. However, based on what is known, it seems the toxin has multiple effects. One component of the toxin is thought to function as a calcium pore-forming protein that is inserted into the membrane of autorhythmic cells (and possibly other cells). Tanya thought back to her physiology course and remembered that intracellular calcium concentrations are much lower than extracellular concentrations. She knew that this ion plays a large role in cardiac cells and in muscles. When stung, Julien had felt lethargic and was having trouble breathing, and noticed something off with his heart rate. Tanya started to wonder about the pathophysiology of this venom. While she sat next to Julien she began running through various physiological scenarios in her head.

Question

11. Based on what the physician stated, how do you think this toxin would impact the action potentials and function of autorhythmic cells and the activity of the heart? State your hypothesis, and then draw a graph to accompany your predicted outcome.
