$$\mathrm{ATP} \rightarrow \mathrm{ADP} + \mathrm{P_i} + \text{energy}$$

Question 1

Which of the following is NOT a function of skeletal muscle tissue?

Accepted Answer

Production of red blood cells

Question 2

Which muscle tissue type is both striated and involuntary?

Accepted Answer

Cardiac muscle

Question 3

The connective tissue layer that surrounds individual muscle fibers is called:

Accepted Answer

Endomysium

Question 4

Which organelle is found in abundance in muscle cells due to their high energy demand?

Accepted Answer

Mitochondria

Question 5

Which of the following best describes the sliding filament theory?

Accepted Answer

Actin and myosin filaments slide past each other, shortening the sarcomere

Question 6

What is stored in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle cells?

Accepted Answer

Calcium ions ($$\mathrm{Ca$$^{2+}$$})$$

Question 7

During an action potential, which step involves the rapid influx of $$\mathrm{Na$$^{+}$$}$$ ions?

Accepted Answer

Depolarization

Question 8

How many neurons typically control each skeletal muscle fiber?

Accepted Answer

One

Question 9

Which of the following best describes the role of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction?

Accepted Answer

It binds to receptors on the muscle cell membrane, triggering an action potential

Question 10

Which step in the muscle contraction cycle directly requires ATP?

Accepted Answer

Detachment of myosin from actin

Question 11

A muscle twitch is defined as:

Accepted Answer

A single, brief contraction and relaxation cycle in a muscle fiber

Question 12

Which type of muscle contraction involves the muscle lengthening while generating force?

Accepted Answer

Eccentric contraction

Question 13

Which source of ATP in muscle cells is the most effective for long-duration activities?

Accepted Answer

Aerobic respiration

Question 14

During intense exercise when oxygen is limited, which chemical is produced in muscle cells?

Accepted Answer

Lactic acid

Question 15

Which type of skeletal muscle fiber is most resistant to fatigue and is used for endurance activities?

Accepted Answer

Slow fibers (Type I)

Question 16

Hypertrophy refers to:

Accepted Answer

Increase in muscle fiber size

Question 17

Which of the following best explains how action potentials spread along a muscle fiber?

Accepted Answer

By depolarization of adjacent regions of the sarcolemma

Question 18

Which of the following is a correct sequence of events in excitation-contraction coupling?

Accepted Answer

Action potential → Calcium release → Troponin activation → Cross-bridge formation

Question 19

If a person’s muscle fibers are predominantly fast fibers, which activity would they likely excel at?

Accepted Answer

Sprinting

Question 20

Which equation best represents the breakdown of ATP during muscle contraction?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{ATP} ightarrow \mathrm{ADP} + \mathrm{P_i} + 	ext{energy}$$
