KROK 1 2012 – Question 27 · KROK (Medicine) · Physiology
A sportsman was examined after an intensive physical activity. The examination revealed disorder of movement coordination but the force of muscle contractions remained the same. It can be explained by retarded speed of excitement conduction through:
- A. Central synapses
- B. Neuromuscular synapses
- C. Efferent nerves
- D. Conduction tracts
- E. Afferent nerves
Hint
Ask which link of the pathway from receptor to muscle conducts slowest and tires first, bearing in mind that the force of the muscle itself stayed unchanged.
The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
