Advanced Pathophysiology
A runner has depleted all the oxygen available for muscle energy. Which 
of the following will facilitate his continued muscle performance? - answer-Answer: Anaerobic glycolysis 
What causes the rapid change in the resting membrane potential that 
initiates an action potential? - answer-Answer: Sodium gates open, and 
sodium rushes into the cell, changing the membrane potential from 
negative to positive. A 12-year-old male is diagnosed with Klinefelter syndrome. His 
karyotype would reveal whic...
