Name the types of muscle
Skeletal
Smooth
Cardiac
The _________ is the connective tissue that surrounds each muscle fiber (cell). (innermost)
Endomysium
The __________ encircles a group of muscle fibers, forming a ____________. (middle)
perimysium & fascile
The __________ encircles all the the fasicles to form the complete muscle. (outermost)
Epimysium
A _______ is a cordlike extesion of 3 muscle linings (Endo, peri, and epimysium). It extends beyon the muscle tissue to connect the muscle to a bone or to other muscle
Tendon
A _____________ is a flat broad extension the the 3 muscle linings and serves the same function as a tendon
Aponeurosis
Define sarcolemma
also known a plama membrane of the muscle cell, is highly invaginated by transverse tubules that permeate the cell
Stiated muscle cells are ____________. The nuclei lie along the _________ of the cell.
Mulitnucleated
periphery
Define myofibrils
A slender striated strand of muscle tissue. Myofibrils occur in groups of branching threads running parallel to the cellular long axis.
Myofibrils consist of two types of filament, name them
Myosin (thick filament)
Actin (thin filament)
Actin contains two importand molecules that covers special binding sites, name them
Troponin & Tropomyosin
Myosin has a protruding head which is instrumental is what?
It is the binding head that attaches to actin.
(forming cross bridges)
______ binds to a myosin head and forms ________
(energy)
ATP
ATP+Pi
When ATP binds to the myosin head it is converted to __________
ADP and Pi
__________ exposes the binding sties on the actin filaments.
Ca2+
Ca2+ binds to the _________ molecule causing ____________ to expose positions on the actin filament for the attachment of myosin heads.
Troponin
Tropomyosin
__________ ________ between the myosin heads and actin filaments form.
Cross bridges
When the attachment sites on the ______ are exposed, the ___________ heads bind to the ______to form crossbridges
Actin
myosin
actin
________ and _____ are released and sliding motion of actin results.
ADP
Pi
______ causes the cross bridge to unbind
ATP
Without the addition of new ATP molecule, the cross bridge remain attached to the actin filaments. This is the cause of what?
Rigor Mortis
_________ or _________ separates the neuron from a muscle cell or another neuron
Synapse or synaptic cleft
Action potential generates the release of ______________
acetycholine
When an action potential of a neuron reaches the ______________ __________, the neuron sceretes the neurotransmitter________, which diffuses across the synaptic cleft
neuromuscular junctiion
acetycholine (Ach)
Action potential is generated on the _________ ____ ______ and throughout the __ ______.
Motor end plate
T tubules.
___________ on the motor end plate, a highly folded region of the sarcolemma, intiate and _________ _________.
Receptors
action potential
The actiion potential travels along the sarcolemma througout the ________ ________ of __________
transverse
system
tubules (T tubuels)
The _________ ____________ release _____. As a result of the AP troughout the T tubules
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum
Ca2+
The _______ released by the sarcoplasmic reticulum binds to ________ molecules on the actin helix prompting _______ molecules to expose ________ sites for ______ crossbridge formation.
Ca2+
Tropon
Tropomyosin
bindings
mysoin
