Question 1

The importance of the plateau phase of the action potential of myocardial cells is in
◦ preventing tetanus.
◦ regulating Ca2+ availability to the cells.
◦ preventing overstretching of the cells.
◦ enhancing the efficiency of oxygen use by the cells.
◦ preventing fibrillation.

Question 2

Autorhythmic cells can generate action potentials spontaneously because they have
◦ L-type Ca2+ channels.
◦ prolonged Ca2+ influx.
◦ a net influx of Na+.
◦ unstable membrane potentials.
◦ channels for Na+ and K+ that are always open.

Cutaneous mucormycosis is a rare fungal infection that has been fatal in at least 29% of cases, and in as many as 83% of cases, depending on the patient's health prior to infection. It has occurred often after natural disasters such as tornados, and early treatment is essential.

Did you know?

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
