There is an autoimmune disorder that specifically destroys neurotransmitter receptors at the motor end plate.  In a few complete sentences, explain what you expect to happen to the function AND control of skeletal muscles as this disease progresses.

A bundle of skeletal muscle cells is called a(n):

Use the pull-down menus to select the best terms or phrases that make these sentences correct: If an axon is myelinated, the action potential will move [blank1], because it is regenerated [blank2].  This type of action potential movement is called [blank3].

In a relaxed sarcomere, this subregion contains only thin filaments.

The degrees of freedom equal N – 1 for the t test for single samples.

Central tendency describes the central location of the set of scores.

This part of a skeletal muscle is considered the “trigger zone” for generating an action potential.

If a curve is negatively skewed, most of the scores occur at the higher values and the curve tails off toward the lower end of the horizontal axis.

If the number of raw scores is odd, the median is always the score in the middle position.

For each of the autonomic synapses described below on the left, select the BEST answer from the pull-down menus.
