Reading quiz questions for week 2 of BIOL 220 (June 30 to July 3)
For July 1 (46.4)
The parasympathetic nervous system and the sympathetic nervous system are the two main
divisions of the
Central Nervous System (CNS)
Afferent Peripheral Nervous System
Efferent Peripheral Nervous System
Somatic Nervous System
Autonomic Nervous System – YES
The occipital lobe, at the rear of the brain, is responsible for
Hearing
Vision – YES
Controlling muscles
Learning and memory
Speech
Major functions of the brain stem include
Autonomic control of the heart and lungs – YES
Coordination of complex motor patterns
Memory
Planning and decision-making
Mathematical calculations
The hypothesis that specific neurons store specific memories is supported by experiments in
which
Removing large sections of the brain impairs recall
Stimulation of precise areas triggers specific flashback-like memories – YES
Memory worsens following sleep deprivation
Memory worsens following exhaustive exercise
Certain visual cues trigger a sense of "déjà vu"
In the context of learning, synaptic plasticity can be defined as
A switch in the neurotransmitter released by the presynaptic neuron
Pairs of neurons’ ability to change size and shape
Changes in the nature or strength of the connection between presynaptic neurons and
postsynaptic neurons - YES
Migration of the presynaptic neuron so that it can connect to other neurons

For July 2 (48.1-48.2)
A single muscle cell is also known as a(n)
Muscle tissue
Actinomycete
Muscle fiber – YES
Myofibril
Sarcomere
Which of these muscle proteins binds calcium?
Actin
Myoglobin
Myosin
Troponin – YES
Tropomyosin
Muscle contraction is triggered by calcium entering the cytoplasm. In skeletal muscles, where
does the calcium come from?
Outside the cell membrane
mitochondria
The sarcoplasmic reticulum – YES
peroxisomes
It is synthesized in the cytoplasm from carbon and water
Which of the following is NOT present in both cardiac and skeletal muscle tissue?
Intercalated discs – YES
Multiple nuclei
Striations
Sarcomeres
Actin and myosin
T tubules are
straws through which you drink tea
Invaginations of the cell membrane – YES
The endoplasmic reticulum in muscle cells
Proteins that help chromosomes separate during mitosis
Proteins rich in the amino acid threonine

For July 3 (45.5)
In the fish circulatory system,
Blood passes by the gills and then goes straight to the other tissues without returning to
the heart first – YES
The heart has 2 ventricles
Circulation to the gills is a lower-pressure circuit than circulation to the body
The heart has 2 atria
In mammalian circulatory systems, oxygenated blood is returned to the heart via the
Vena cava
Aorta
Pulmonary artery
Pulmonary vein – YES
In mammalian circulatory systems, the heart chamber that pumps blood out to the whole body
is designated as the
Left atrium
Left ventricle – YES
Right atrium
Right ventricle
Myocardium
The delay in electrical conduction at the AV node is useful to the heart because it
Prevents bradycardia
Promotes tachycardia
Lets the ventricles fill with blood before contracting – YES
Avoids hyperpolarization of the ventricles
A typical systemic diastolic blood pressure for a healthy human is
8 mm Hg
25 mmg Hg
70 mm Hg – YES
120 mm Hg
150 mm Hg
