A motor neuron‚ a nerve ending that is attached to a muscle fiber in Petzold’s huge bicep‚ sends a message to contract. This message goes to the neuromuscular junction‚ which is the connection between the actual nerve fiber and muscle fiber. As the message to contract reaches the terminals a neurotransmitter‚ a chemical messenger for the body‚ is released into the gap between the terminal end‚ and the sarcolemma and motor end plate called the synaptic cleft. The particular neurotransmitter is called

Complete and submit Essay 4 (BIO201 LESN 10 Essay 4 N)‚ as instructed below: 1. A patient is admitted for electroconvulsive treatment (ECT). The physician orders the neuromuscular blocking agent metocurine iodide (metubine) to reduce trauma by relaxing skeletal muscles. Explain the process of muscle contraction and how a neuromuscular blocking agent‚ such as metubine‚ would interfere with muscle contraction. According to the Mayo Clinic website electroconvulsive treatment is the use of an electrical

PROPRIORCEPTION. Propriorceception is essentially the ability to sense the position‚ alignment and movement of one’s body and its parts in space. For example‚ if your eyes were closed‚ you’d still know where your hands are without much thought due to proprioreception. Also when you are standing proprioreception allows you to be aware of where your limbs are and therefore you can make any necessary adjustments if you felt out of balance. This ability to know where your body parts are in 3-dimensional

create a muscle contraction your brain sends a message (nerve impulse) to your muscles via axon extensions. The end of this axon forms a union with a single muscle fiber; this union is called the neuromuscular junction. The axon terminal and the muscle fiber don’t actually touch at this junction; they are attached by a space called the synaptic cleft. (Marieb and Hoehn‚ 2007) Inside the axons terminal there are small sacs containing the neurotransmitter ACh. When the message reaches the end of the
