What are the 3 types of muscles?
|
skeletal-voluntary, cardiac-invol.,smooth-invol.
|
|
2 proteins that the muscle is composed of:
|
actin and myosin
|
|
this covering surrounds the whole muscle and is made from dense irregular
|
epimysium
|
|
a group of muscle fibers, inside of these is muscle cells or fibers
|
fascicle
|
|
this covers around fasicle?
|
perimysium
|
|
long cylindrical, multinucleate found within the fascicle
|
muscle fiber or cell
|
|
plasma membrane of muscle fiber
|
sarcolemma
|
|
this is the cytoplasm of muscle
|
sarcoplasm
|
|
this is a structure within the muscle fiber and is made from actin and myosin
|
myofibrils
|
|
connective tissue that surrounds each muscle fiber
|
endomysium
|
|
each muscle contains a ____ and a ____ each entering and exiting at the same place
|
nerve and artery/veins
|
|
these are contorted when muscle is relaxed or contracted
|
capillaries
|
|
when ____ the muscle shortens
when____ the muscle is long |
contracted
relaxed |
|
these are sticks of protein
|
myofibrils
|
|
which band is thicker A band or I band
|
A band
|
|
this band changes during contraction
|
I band
|
|
this zone is lighter strip in middle of A band...relaxed muscle only
|
H zone
|
|
this line bisects H zone and A band
|
M line
|
|
this disc bisects I band
|
Z disc
|
|
this is the region between Z disc
|
sarcomere
|
|
the thick filaments form the length of the __ band
|
A
|
|
the thin filametns form the length of the __ band
|
I
|
|
this protein forms the Z disc, anchors thin filaments
|
nebulin
|
|
fine protein strands that form M line, hold adjacent thick filaments together
|
desmin
|
|
this protein has two heads and 2 twisted tails
|
myosin
|
|
the heads have two purposes what are they?
|
bind w/ actin
ATP |
|
has a twisted double strand and stiffened by two strands of tropomyosin-blocks active site for myosin
|
actin
|
|
Tropomin has three proteins that make it up what are they and what does each one do?
|
TnI-bonds actin
TnC-binds calcium ions TnT-binds to tropomyosin and positions it on actin |
|
this surrounds each myofibril, network of tubules,terminal cisternea
|
sarcoplasmic reticulum
|
|
terminal cisternea releases
|
Ca
|
|
these are wrapped around each myofibril and conduct nerve impulses
|
t-tubules or transverse tubules
|
