    1. The document contains a 20 question quiz on the muscular system. Questions cover topics like motor neuron characteristics, the stages of an action potential, muscle functions, names of specific muscles, descriptions of muscle tissues components, and the neuromuscular junction. 2. The answers identify things like hyperpolarization as the characteristic of an inhibited motor neuron, the stages of an action potential, that muscle does not produce red blood cells, specific muscles like the rectus abdominis, and descriptions of structures like the epimysium and sarcomere components. 3. The final question is about the components of the neuromuscular junction, identifying the presynaptic terminal, postsynaptic terminal, and synaptic cle
