Question
Rigor mortis is caused by:
the loss of ATP without oxygen from breathing
the buildup of lactate acid in the muscles
bacterial decomposition sets in
the slow leakage of Ca++ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
final volley of action potentials in the motor neurons at the time of death
I have tried these combination of answer which have all been wrong.
B and D
A,B,D,and E
E and A
a.the loss of ATP without oxygen from breathing
b.the buildup of lactate acid in the muscles
c.bacterial decomposition sets in
d.the slow leakage of Ca++ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
e.final volley of action potentials in the motor neurons at the time of death
Explanation / Answer
Answer:A and D
The loss of ATP without oxygen from breathing,The slow leakage of Ca++ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Rigor mortis is a condition in which the joints of the body stiffens a few hours after death of a person.
This happens due to the partial contraction of skeletal muscles where the muscles are unable to relax and so the joints become fixed in place.
