molecule _______________________ can quickly produce ATP to maintain muscle contraction.
Question: Anaerobic - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔_____________ respiration supports intense
muscle contraction for up to 2-3 minutes, does not require oxygen, and results in the

result in a change in length of the muscle is called a(n) ____________ contraction.
Question: Blood-brain Barrier - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔The supportive glial cells known as
astrocytes participate along with blood vessels to form a permeability barrier in the CNS, known
as the _____________ barrier.
Question: Threshold - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔If the local potential change at the axon hillock is
high enough, above ____________ value, the opening of more sodium channels will be
triggered and an action potential generated.
Question: Axon Hillock - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔The __________________ region of the neuron
