At the Clinic
1)Alcohol disrupts connections between the visual and muscle control areas of the brain,
making it hard for drunk people to make any sort of coordinated movement.
2)Milk and other dairy products contain high levels of calcium, which are needed for building
strong bones. In addition, calcium helps to prevent muscle cramps and aids the proper
functioning of the nervous system. If blood calcium is too low due to a lack of diary, then a
person will likely have muscle spasms and feel nervous.
3)The bacterium Clostridium botulinium and the poliovirus both inhibit the normal function of the
muscles by compromising the nerves that assist in their normal function.
4)The rotator cuff muscles are located in the shoulder and are heavily used in the throwing
motion.
5)The hamstrings run all the way down from the hip to the knee along the posterior side of the
leg. They are composed of the Biceps Femoris, Semitendinosus, and Semimembranosus, all of
which can be injured playing football.
6)Mr. Ahmadi tore his achilles tendon, because it connects the heel to the calf muscle, which
are no longer connected on his leg.
7)Chemical A would be the best muscle relaxant because chemical B would release myosin,
which causes muscles to contract, the opposite of what we want.
8)ATP is needed to pump calcium ions into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Without ATP, calcium
can’t be pumped and the muscles remain contracted.
9)Anabolic steroids can cause shrinking of the testes and higher risk for heart attack and stroke.
10)The pectoral and the latissimus dorsi muscles
11)The biceps is the primary muscle involved in elbow flexion. The triceps is the muscle that
extends the elbow.
12)Smooth muscle is found in sheets or layers that contract unconsciously. Cardiac muscles are ...
