Which of the following is correct about the given figure?
The length of the thick and thin myofilaments has changed.

During muscular contraction, which of the following events occur?
(i) H-zone disappears
(ii) A band widens
(iii) I band shortens
(iv) Width of A band is unaffected
(v) M line and Z line come closer
(i),(iii),(iv) and (v)
(i),(ii) and (v)
(ii),(iv) and (v)
(i),(ii) and (iii).
Which of the following is true for the labelled parts in the figure below?
A - Z-line - located at centre of I - band
B - Thin filament - occurs in A-band only
C - Thick filament - confined to I-band
D - H-zone - located at centre of M-line
The H-Zone in the skeletal muscle fibre is due to
the central gap between actin filaments extending through myosin filaments in the A-band
extension of myosin filaments in the central portion of the A-band
the absence of myofibrils in the central portion of A-band
the central gap between myosin filaments in the A-band

tendon reflex
ipsilateral reflex
flexor reflex
patellar reflex
Gerdy fibres are
ligament of neck
ligament of ankles
ligament of palm
ligament of face.
Consider the diagram given below.
Parts labelled as A, B, C, D, E and F respectively indicate.
Sacrum, ilium, pubis, femur, tibia and fibula
Ilium, pubis, sacrum, femur, fibula and tibia
Sacrum, pubis, ilium, femur, tibia and fibula
Ilium, sacrum, pubis, femur, tibia and fibula
In old age, stiffness of joints is due to the
hardening of bones
inefficiency of muscles
decrease in synovial fluid
enlargement of bones
Oxygen content reduction makes the glycolyse (glycogenesis) intensity increased due to
increase of ADP concentration in cell
increase of NAD+ concentration in cell
increase of ATP concentration in cell
increase of concentration of peroxides and free radicals
Pick out the correct match
Sternum - 14
Pelvis - 3
Ribs - 20
Face - 5

The functions of tropomyosin in skeletal muscle include:
Release Ca+2 after initiation of contraction
Acting as "relaxing protein" at rest by covering up the sites where myosin binds to actin
Generates ATP
Ca+2 bind ________ in the skeletal muscles and leads to exposure of the binding site for ________ on the filament _______:
Troponin, myosin, actin
Troponin, actin, relaxin
Actin, myosin, troponin
Tropomysin, myosin, actin
Following is the figure of actin (thin) filaments. Identify A, B and C:
A - Tropomyosin, B - Troponin, C - F-actin
A - Troponin, B - Myosin, C - Tropomyosin
A - Troponin, B - Tropomyosin, C - Myosin
A - Troponin, B - Tropomyosin, C - F-actin
The above figure is related with myosin monomer (meromyosin). Identify A to C:
A - head, B - cross arm, C - GTP binding sites
A - head, B - cross arm, C - Ca+2 binding sites

The action potential that triggers a muscle contraction travels deep within the muscle cell by means of:
Sarcoplasmic reticulum
Transverse tubules
Synapse
Motor end plates
ATP provides energy for muscle contraction by allowing for:
An action potential formation in the muscle cell
Cross-bridge attachment of myosin to actin
Cross-bridge detachment of myosin from actin
Release of Ca+2 from sarcoplasmic reticulum
