The connective tissue that surrounds and separates individual skeletal muscle fibers (cells) is called epimysium.

The thick connective tissue that encircles the entire muscle tissue is called the epimysium. Typically, the epimysium is made up of several bundles (fascicles) of muscle fibers. It is a thick coating of wavy, uneven connective tissue that covers the entire muscle and shields it from contact with bones and other muscles. The endomysium and perimysium, as well as other connective tissue wrappings of the muscle, are all continuous with it. It continues with tendons as well, where it thickens and becomes collagenous. On tendons, the epimysium is regular, but it is uneven on muscles.

The layer of perimysium connective tissue separates the bundles from one another. Muscle bundles can include 50 to 300 muscle fibres per bundle, depending on their size.

Agents that paralyze skeletal muscle by simple competitive inhibition of acetylcholine at muscle receptor sites are called?
Fed [463]

Agents that paralyze skeletal muscle by simple competitive inhibition of acetylcholine at muscle receptor sites are called?

a. nondepolarizing

b. depolarizing

c. antagonizing

d. repolarizing

Answer:

a. nondepolarizing

Explanation:

As the nerve impulse arrives, the synaptic end bulbs of the motor neurons release acetylcholine in the synapse. Acetylcholine binds to its receptors present at the motor endplate. This results in the opening of an ion channel in the ACh receptor to allow the movement of the Na+ into the cell. This makes the inside of the muscle fiber more positively charged, that is, depolarized.

Depolarization triggers a muscle action potential. Drugs or chemicals that paralyze skeletal muscle by competitive inhibition of acetylcholine at muscle receptor sites are called non-depolarizing as they do not allow the acetylcholine to facilitate the depolarization of the muscle fiber.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

3. The ETC cannot establish a proton gradient to drive chemiosmotic production of ATP

Explanation:

Reduction of FAD+ and NAD+ during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle produces FADH2 and NADH respectively which in turn give their electrons to the molecular oxygen via electron transport chain (ETC). This electron transfer is accompanied by the pumping of protons towards the inter-membrane space resulting in the generation of an electrochemical gradient.

The energy of the electrochemical gradient is harnessed to drive ATP synthesis. The process is called chemiosmotic ATP synthesis. The mentioned insecticide would not allow the FADH2 and NADH to reduce oxygen and no electrochemical gradient is developed to drive the chemiosmotic production of ATP.
