Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): | Smooth muscle is fundamentally different from skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle. |
Reason (R): | Smooth muscle is an involuntary non-striated muscle. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Assertion: Cardiac tissue is described as a functional syncytium, as opposed to the true syncytium of skeletal muscle.
Reason: A syncytium is a multinucleated cell that can result from multiple cell fusions of uninuclear cells.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false.
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): | Within the A-band of a sarcomere is a paler region called the H-zone. |
Reason (R): | H-zone is the zone of the thin myofilaments in the center of the A band. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
Assertion: The T-tubules synchronise calcium release within the cell.
Reason: T-tubules bring the sarcolemma very close to the sarcoplasmic reticulum at all regions throughout the cell.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false
Assertion: Muscle contraction does not necessarily mean muscle shortening.
Reason: Muscle tension can be produced without changes in muscle length.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false.
Assertion (A): | Shortening of myofilaments leads to the shortening of the muscle. |
Reason (R): | Only the actin myofilaments shorten while the length of the myosin myofilaments remains the same during the muscle shortening. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): | Hydrolysis of ATP by myosin head is critical for the cross bridge formation. |
Reason (R): | Myosin head has ATPase activity dependent on magnesium ions |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
Assertion: Calmodulin plays an important role in excitation contraction (EC) coupling and the initiation of the cross-bridge cycling in smooth muscle.
Reason: Troponin is not found in the smooth muscles.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false.
