A single Na+/K+ ATPase pump is present in the plasma membrane of an artificial cell with an initial cellular environment of 500 molecules of Na+ and 1000 molecules of ATP inside the cell, 500 molecules of K+ outside the cell, and a net charge differential across the plasma membrane of 0. Assuming the only changes in the cellular environment are a result of the pump's actions, what would be the number of Na+, K+ and ATP molecules inside the cell after 10 cycles of the pump and what would be the net charge differential (inside - outside) across the plasma membrane?

a. 300 Na+; 200 K+; 100 ATP and -100 charge differential (inside - outside)
b. 470 Na+; 20 K+; 990 ATP and -20 charge differential (inside - outside)
c. 30 Na+; 20 K+; 900 ATP and -10 charge differential (inside - outside)
d. 470 Na+; 480 K+; 10 ATP and +100 charge differential (inside - outside)
e. 30 Na+; 480 K+; 10 ATP and +20 charge differential (inside - outside)

Choose the incorrect statement (a) the motor end plate membrane is only capable of generating graded potentials, but it is contiguous with the skeletal muscle sarcolemma, which can generate action potentials. (b) propagation of an action potential through the t-tubules into the sarcoplasmic reticulum triggers the release of ca++ into the cytoplasm of a skeletal muscle fiber. (c) the generation of suprathreshold endplate potentials in multiple muscle fibers could be due to the increased frequency of action potential generation at the axon hillock of a single motor neuron. (d) a greater amount of ach would be found in the presynaptic vesicles of a motor unit that fired several action potentials after exposure to botulinum toxin, than in a motor unit that fired several action potentials after exposure to the venom of the krait snake (which contains α-bungarotoxin).
