A flat bone present on the ventral midline of thorax is called as:
1. | Hyoid | 2. | Clavicle |
3. | Sternum | 4. | Vertebral body |
The central part of the thick filaments not overlapped by the thin filaments is called as:
1. | A band | 2. | I band |
3. | H zone | 4. | Sarcomere |
What protein is arranged along the length of actin filaments and is involved in regulation of skeletal muscle contraction?
1. | Troponin | 2. | Calmodulin |
3. | Tropomyosin | 4. | Light meromyosin |
During relaxation of a skeletal muscle:
1. | Calcium ions that are bound to troponin C now bind to troponin A |
2. | Cross bridge formation between myosin head and actin takes place |
3. | The A band of the sarcomere lengthens |
4. | Calcium ions are pumped back to the sarcoplasmic cisternae |
What type of muscles do you expect to find in the inner walls of hollow visceral organs?
1. | Involuntary, nonstriated | 2. | Voluntary, nonstriated |
3. | Involuntary, striated | 4. | Voluntary, striated |
During muscle contraction, when the myosin head releases ADP and iP it:
1. forms cross bridge with actin
2. pulls actin towards M-line
3. goes back to its relaxed state
4. gets detached from the cross bridge
Muscle weakness because of abnormal neuromuscular junction activity is seen in:
1. | poliomyelitis | 2. | myasthenia gravis |
3. | multiple sclerosis | 4. | muscular dystrophy |
Which of the following masks the active sites on actin when a skeletal muscle is relaxed?
1. | Tropomyosin | 2. | Troponin |
3. | Calmodulin | 4. | Ubiquitin |
All the following are cranial bones except:
1. | Ethmoid | 2. | Sphenoid |
3. | Temporal | 4. | Zygomatic |
During muscle contraction, the event shown in the following diagram describes:
1. cross bridge detachment
2. the power stroke or working stroke
3. cross bridge formation
4. cocking of myosin head
