The following student answer was awarded either a “1” (partial credit) or a “0” (no credit). Which of the following is a reason the answer did not receive full credit? Select all that apply.  Student Answer: The wavelike, rhythmic, synchronized, contraction of the myocardium is the result of the desmosomes linking autorhythmic cells and myocytes that allows ions and electrical signals to move from once cell to an adjacent cell and thus migrate through the entire heart.

Complete the following sentences regarding excitation-contraction coupling 1. When an action potential arrives at the axon terminal enters through voltage-setive channels. 2. This triggers the release of from the axon terminal. 3. This diffuses from the axon terminal to the of the skeletal muscle fiber. 4. It then binds to on the motor endplate membrane, increasing their permeability to Na+ and K+ 5. More moves into the fiber at the motor endplate than moves out, depolarizing the membrane and producing a . K

Compartments A and B are separated by a membrane that is permeable to K+K+ but not to Na+Na+ or Cl−Cl-. At time zero, a solution of KCl is poured into compartment A and an equally concentrated solution of NaCl is poured into compartment B. Which would be true once equilibrium is reached?
