Group of muscle fibers surrounded by a perimysium?
|
fasicle
|
|
Each fascicle is subdivided into _________ surrounded by _________
|
-muscle fibers
-endomysium |
|
the ability to be stretched or extended.
|
Extensibility
|
|
the ability of a muscle fiber to resume its resting length.
|
Elasticity
|
|
region between two successive Z lines.
|
Sarcomere
|
|
protein that anchors in the thick filaments and allows elastic recoil of muscle.
|
Titin
|
|
I bands
|
contain only thin filaments
|
|
A bands
|
contain both thick and thin filaments
|
|
H bands
|
are the center of the A band with no thin filament overlap.
|
|
Z lines
|
are found in the center of each I band
|
|
M lines
|
are found in the center of each A band and help hold down thick filaments.

|
Troponin complex and tropomyosin are ________ proteins
|
regulatory
|
|
__________ blocks the myosin binding site on actin
|
Tropomyosin
|
|
Calcium binds to __________. This causes a conformational change of __________ allows myosin to bind actin
|
-troponin-c
-tropomyosin |
|
precision of muscle movement is indicated by
|
Indicated by number of muscle fibers per motor unit
|
|
Slow oxidative fiber - type 1
|
•Smallest, lots Myoglobulin
•Slow contraction rate •Longer peak reach tension •Aerobic respiration- ATP synthesis •Fatigue resistant-jogging |
|
-largest, low myoglobulin
-most powerful contraction -Glycolysis-ATPsynthesis -Strong & rapid contraction -Intense movement - weight lifting -Rapidly fatigued |
Fast glycolytic fiber - type 2
|
|
•Medium sized, lots Myoglobulin
•Fast contraction rate • walking/sprinting •Aerobic respiration & Glycolysis- ATPsynthesis •Moderate fatigue resistant |
fast oxidative-glycolytic fiber - type 2b
|
|
type 1 fibers increase with increasing
|
type 1 fibers increase with increasing endurance actiivity
|
|
type 2a fibers decrease with increasing
|
type 2 fibers decrease with increasing endurance activity
|
|
type 2b fibers remain constant and drop off with increasing
|
endurance activity
|
|
isotonic contraction?
two types? |
tension remains constant while length changes
2 types: eccentric and concentric |
|
eccentric isotonic contraction
|
muscle increases in length with contraction
|
|
concentric isotonic contraction
|
muscle decreases in length with contraction
|
|
