Graduate Skin, Skeleton, and Muscles
Skin is sometimes referred to as the largest organ of the body. Why is skin considered to be an organ and not a tissue or some other structure?
  1. Skin consists of multiple cell types functioning as a single integrated unit.
  2. Skin consists of multiple tissue types that cooperate to perform a specific task.
  3. Skin is a vital component of multiple organ systems
  4. Skin consists of a single cell type.

Graduate Skin, Skeleton, and Muscles
Which of the following statements regarding whole-muscle contraction is true?
  1. The order of recruitment of motor units in a muscle is such that the last units recruited are the first to experience fatigue
  2. The order of recruitment of motor units in a muscle is such that the first units recruited generate the most tension
  3. Motor units whose motor neurons have small-diameter cell bodies contract first, followed by motor units with larger-diameter motor neurons
  4. Both the order of recruitment of motor units in a muscle is such that the last units recruited are the first to experience fatigue and the order of recruitment of motor units in a muscle is such that the first units recruited generate the most tension are true
  5. Both the order of recruitment of motor units in a muscle is such that the last units recruited are the first to experience fatigue and motor units whose motor neurons have small-diameter cell bodies contract first, followed by motor units with larger-diameter motor neurons are true

  2. Slow oxidative fibers are the smallest diameter fibers.
  3. Slow oxidative fibers have a low resistance to fatigue.
  4. Fast glycolytic fibers produce their ATP by glycolysis.
