How might Barney's EMG measurements change after ingestion of this toxin? Please select all of the answers that apply to Barney's situation. Barney's EMG will decrease because the chelator does not affect the electrical events at the NMJ Barney's EMG will not change because the chelator does not affect the electrical events at the NMJ Barney's EMG will increase because the chelator does not affect the electrical events at the NMJ Calcium is involved in the EMG signal, so it does affect the EMG Calcium is partially involved in the EMG signal, so it partially affects the EMG Calcium is not involved in the EMG signal, so it does not affect the EMG

How might Barney's skeletal muscle function change? Please select all of the answers that apply to Barney's situation. Barney is recruiting fewer motor units Troponin activity will be reduced Ca2+ is not involved in crossbridge formation, so they should show muscle weakness Barney's crossbridges would be stuck in the "power stroke" Barney is recruiting more motor units Ca2+ is involved in crossbridge formation, so they should show muscle weakness Ca2+ is involved in crossbridge formation, so they should show increased muscle tone Barney's crossbridges would be stuck in the "cocked state" Barney is recruiting the same number of motor units Barney's crossbridges would be stuck in the "rigor state" Troponin activity will be enhanced

In response to stress, the hypothalamus increases the release of CRH, which increases__________ from the anterior pituitary and__________from the adrenal cortex. These hormones prolong the response to stress provided by the nervous system.

TRH, GNRH, CRH, etc., are known as_______________________ hypothalamic hormones that regulate the function of the__________ pituitary. These hormones are released into capillary beds and carried directly to the pituitary by the_______ _______ _______ .

Prolactin is unique in that the main ventral hypothalamic hormone regulating its secretion,______________ inhibits its release.____________ (hormone) increases prolactin release. Very high levels of this hormone during pregnancy actually block the effect of prolactin on milk production.

In a cross-sectional design, generation effects pose a problem because Multiple Choice multiple testing effects cannot be eliminated. sometimes participants die or move away. it is not possible to effectively control for covariates. the fact that participants in different age groups were born in different decades may provide an alternative explanation for the observed effects.

In a cohort-sequential developmental you can identify potential generation effects by comparing Multiple Choice participants from different cohort groups of the same age. participants from the same cohort groups of different ages. behavior across multiple observations of participants within a cohort group. the reasons why participants dropped out of the study across age groups.

A cohort-sequential developmental design includes Multiple Choice experimental and correlational components. covariates and quasi-independent variables. cross-sectional and longitudinal components. pretests and posttests.
