Question 1 A patient with severe kyphoscoliosis presents with increasing dyspnea consistent with a decrease in chest wall compliance. With contraction of the external intercostal muscles during inspiration, the Golgi tendon organ (GTO) provides the central nervous system information about which of the following?
A. The length of the muscle being moved B. The velocity of the muscle movement C. The blood flow to the muscle being moved D. The tension developed by the muscle being moved E. The change in joint angle produced by the movement

Question 2 A 32 y/o man sees his physician after collapsing suddenly without any other physical distress. Lab results demonstrate an elevated serum concentration of K+ and he is diagnosed with periodic hyperkalemic paralysis, a clinical condition in which a sudden increase in extracellular K+ concentration results in muscle weakness. Which of the following is most likely to cause muscle weakness as a result of increased extracellular K+ concentration?
A. Hyperpolarization of muscle cells B. Inactivation of sodium channels in muscle cells
