The disease poliomyelitis (po′le-o-mi′˘e-li′tis) destroys motor neurons, causingloss of muscle function and even flaccid paralysis. Some patients recoverbecause axon branches form from the remaining motor neurons. Thesebranches innervate the paralyzed muscle fibers to produce motor unitswith many more muscle fibers than usual. How does this reinnervation ofmuscle fibers affect the degree of muscle control in a person who hasrecovered from poliomyelitis?
Poorly conditioned, middle-aged peoplemay suffer a rupture of the calcaneal tendonwhen the foot is suddenly dorsiflexed, asin hitting the ground when jumping downfrom a height. Explain each of the followingsigns of a ruptured calcaneal tendon: (a)a prominent lump typically appears in thecalf; (b) the foot can be dorsiflexed fartherthan usual; and (c) the patient cannot plantarflex the foot very effectively

Since neurotransmittersare not consumed in thesynaptic process, what are themechanisms to reduce theirconcentrations in the synapticcleft after they have beenused?
Almost all subjects will show a declining force (pseudo-fatigue), while their eyes are shut, that isvery similar to fatigue. This is, however, not true fatigue, because the full 50% force can be exerted easily, as can be seen when the subject's eyes are opened again. What explanations can you think of for pseudo-fatigue?

Savannah and her 59-year-old grandfather spent a long daygardening. Pulling weeds, raking, and planting left both ofthem a bit sore. However, Savannah’s grandfather was morestiff and sore, and it took him much longer to recover thanSavannah. Why did Savannah and her grandfather react tothis exertion differently?
Parkinson disease is the result of decreased levels of theneurotransmitter dopamine in the brain. However, thesepatients can’t take dopamine in drug form because the drugcannot reach the brain. What anatomic structure preventsthe drug from reaching the brain? How could these sameanatomic structures be beneficial to an individual underdifferent circumstances?
