Experiment Results Predict Question: Predict Question: Will changes to the stimulus voltage alter the duration of the latent latent period? Your answer : b. No, changing the stimulus voltage will not change the latent period duration.

Review Sheet Results 1. Define the terms skeletal muscle fiber, motor unit, skeletal muscle twitch, electrical stimulus, and latent period. Your answer: Skeletal muscle fibers: are attached to the skeleton and make voluntary actions such as walking and standing possible. motor unit: consists of a motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers it innervates. Skeletal Muscle twitch: is the mechanical response to a single action potential. Electrical stimulus: is used to control muscle contractions. Latent Period: is the period of time thats between the generation of an action potential in a muscle and the start of muscle contraction.
2. What is the role of acetylcholine in a skeletal muscle contraction? contraction? Your answer: Acetylcholine diffuses onto the muscle fiber's sarcolemma and binds to receptors in the motor end plate initiating a change in ion permeability that results in a graded depolarization of the the end plate potential. 3. Describe the process of excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle fibers. Your answer: The events that occur at the neuromuscular junction lead to the end plate potential. The end plate potential triggers a series of events that result in the contraction of a muscle. 4. Describe the three phases of a skeletal muscle twitch. Your answer: The latent phase is the period of time thats between the generation of an action potential in a muscle cell and the start of muscle contraction. The Concentration phase starts at the end of the latent period and ends when the muscle tension peaks. The Relaxation phase is the period from peak tension until the end of the muscle contraction. 5. Does the duration of the latent period change with different different stimulus voltages? How well did the results compare with your prediction? Your answer: In all of the tests the latent period remained the same. The results proved that I predicted correctly. 6. At the threshold stimulus, do sodium sodium ions start to move into into or out of the cell to bring bring about the membrane depolarization? Your answer:
