Sodium ions rush into the fiber during depolarization, and the membrane potential becomes with respect to the outside of the fiber. becomes more negative more positive

Explanation / Answer

39.C. Eversion of the foot.

40.A. Hamstring muscle are responsible for flexing of the knee.

41.A. Tibialis Anterior muscle. The gastrocnemius muscle function is plantar flexing the foot at the ankle joint and flexing the leg at knee joint. Whereas the Tibialis anterior muscle acts to dorsiflex and inversion of the foot. It acts as antagonist to plantar flexors of the posterior compartment such as gastrocnemius muscle.

42.C.The fourth one is rectus femoris

43.B.Gluteus minimus.

44 A. Quadriceps femoris group acts antagonist to hamstring muscle as it acts to extend the leg.

45.B.thin filaments contains actin protein not the myosin.

46.D.
