Question 1

Put these myofibers in the order they would be recruited as the body moves from a weak to a strong stimulus:
1. glycolytic fast-twitch fibers
2. fatigue-resistant oxidative fast-twitch fibers
3. fatigue-resistant slow-twitch fibers
◦ 1, 2, 3
◦ 1, 3, 2
◦ 2, 3, 1
◦ 3, 2, 1
◦ 3, 1, 2

Question 2

An important difference between single-unit and multiunit smooth muscle is the
◦ numerous gap junctions in single-unit smooth muscle, which allow many cells to work together as a sheet.
◦ ability of single-unit fibers to change into multiunit fibers when needed.
◦ closely controlled individual fibers in single-unit smooth muscle to allow fine control and graded contractions by selective activation.
◦ longer actin and myosin filaments in multiunit smooth muscle, which allow coordination of contraction.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
