Select the correct statement with respect to disorders of muscles in humans
- Rapid contractions of skeletal muscles causes muscle dystrophy
- Failure of neuromuscular transmission in myasthenia gravis can prevent normal swallowing
- Accumulation of urea and creatine in the joints cause their inflammation
- An overdose of vitamin D causes osteoporosis
Correct answer: Failure of neuromuscular transmission in myasthenia gravis can prevent normal swallowing
Solution
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disorder that disrupts neuromuscular transmission, leading to muscle weakness. If the muscles involved in swallowing are affected, normal swallowing can be difficult or impossible.
