I agree. Activity two is the hardest this far. I have
1. The latent period of the skeletal muscle that was tested in this lab simulation was a. about 1 second. b. less than 1 msec. c. between 2-3 msec. d. variable, depending on the voltage that was applied to it. c. between 2-3 msec 2. True or False: Another name for a muscle cell is “myofibril.” false 3. The largest active force that could be generated in the muscle is Activity 1 was _______ grams. .8 4. Define the terms skeletal muscle fiber, motor unit, skeletal muscle twitch, electrical stimulus, and latent period. Skeletal muscle fiber: The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the skeletal muscle fiber over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Muscle fibers are formed by the maturation of myotubes. They can be classed as slow, intermediate/fast or fast. Motor unit: A motor neuron and all the skeletal muscle fibers it innervates (stimulates) Skeletal Muscle twitch: A brief contraction of all the muscle fibers in a motor unit in response to a single action potential in its motor neuron Electrical stimulus: Electrical stimulation uses an electrical current to cause a single muscle or a group of muscles to contract. Period Latent : Lasts about 2 milliseconds (msec) and is the time between stimulation of muscle cells and force generation.

Is this correct? 2. What is the role of acetylcholine in a skeletal muscle contraction? Answer: Acetylcholine diffuses onto the muscle fiber's plasma membrane (sarcolemma) and binds to receptors in the motor end plate initiating a change in ion permeability that results in a graded depolarization of the muscle plasma membrane (the end plate potential).
