For GTA Chelsea's last week, GTA Elizabeth is making her a playlist that she can listen to on her drive to Kansas. Many of the songs picked are great headbanging rock songs that the neighboring cars will hear. Consequently, she correctly realizes that Chelsea's cochleaA: will have lots of V-gated Ca+2 channels being openedB: Will have movement of the Ca+2 based stonesC: Both correctD: Neither correct

A: will have lots of v-gated Ca=2 channels being opened

While preparing for the 2020 Phys Phab Olympics somersault competition, Phys Phab Kaitlyn rolled down the hill by her house. Unfortunately, she could never do more than seven somersaults before feeling extremely nauseous. She thinks at least ten somersaults will be needed to win the gold. Consequently, she is now doing research to develop a medicine that will either (blank) the viscosity of the water within her vestibular system or cause her cerebral cortex to respond as if she was(blank).A. Decrease-Buoyant in waterB. Increase-Bouyant in waterC. Decrease- stuck in quicksandD. Increase- Stuck in quicksand.

increase- bouyant in water

In preparing for this exam, Student X hits play to listen to lecture recordings via headphones. Unfortunately, the volume was still set very high so Dr. Bronson was "screaming".

Less - sodium

more - potassium

During an Intro Bio Lab, Brutus Buckeye was touched with one or two fine wire tips by his lab mate and asked to state whether he was feeling one or two touches. At a test location on his back, he left one touch but his lab mate said two occurred. He correctly realized that ______ that area ____ the difference.A. His large receptive fields in -- were not causing itB. The overlap of fields in-- was causingC. The cerebral interpretation for--was not causing itD. Lateral inhibition in-- was not causing

C. the cerebral interpretation for - was not causing it

Which is a correct statement about the blind spot in our eyes?A. There are receptors present in this areaB. It exists because the receptors are closest to the lensC. There are not more cones than rods in this areaD. The brain does not interpret an image for this area

C. There are not more cones than rods in this area

Phys Phab Chloe is cold while working in the party room. She tries to increase the temperature at the the thermostat but reads there that she must download an App to control the temperature. She correctly realizes that this scenario is analogous to ____ receptor design presented in lecture that results in increased ____.A. Second--modality B. Second--adequacy C. First--modality. D. First--adequacy

B. second - adequacy

C. Corpus Callosum

You observe a four-cell system. Cells A and B both synapse on Cell C which synapses on Cell D. Cells A and C both cause large hyperpolarizations. Cell B causes a small depolarization. When you simultaneously cause action potentials on the axons of Cells A and B, you correctly observe A. The Vm of Cell D will change.B. Cell C might experience an IPSP.C. Temporal Summation occurring.D. No change in Cell C's resting potential.

D. no change in cell c's resting potential

Having completed his investigation of action potentials. Junior creates Toxin X that specifically causes the simultaneous closing of sodium and potassium channels.

Both statements are correct.D. Neither statements are correct.

D. neither statement is correct

The Question Reads:Neuron X's membrane potential is currently greater than threshold potential in a section of its axon. Consequently, you correctly state that:A. Sodium channels MUST be open in that sectionB. That section is definitely causing graded potentials in both adjacent sections of the axon.C. Both are correctD. Neither Are correct

C. both are correct
