|
Action potential is initiated and propagates along the motor neuron axon to axon terminal.
|
STEP 1 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Action potential triggers the exocytosis of acetylcholine (ACh)from the synaptic vesicles present in the axon terminal.
|
STEP 2 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
ACh diffuses across the synaptic cleft and bind to Ach receptors on the motor end-plate.
|
STEP 3 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Motor end-plate depolarizes and propagates the action potential along the sarcolemma.
|
STEP 4 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Transverse tubules (infoldings of sarcolemma) depolarize.
|
STEP 5 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Depolarization of the transverse tubules triggers the release of calcium from the terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
|
STEP 6 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Calcium binds to the troponin of the thin filaments.
|
STEP 7 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Tropomyosin moves from its blocking position, uncovering binding sites on the actin molecules.
|
STEP 8 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Myosin heads bind to actin.
|
STEP 9 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Myosin heads swivel, detach and reattach to another binding site on actin.
|
STEP 10 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
Step "10" is repeated numberous times, until thin filaments are pulled in towards the "M" line of each sarcomere.
|
STEP 11 Contraction: Skeletal Muscle
|
|
When the muscle fiber contracts: "I" bands shorten; "H" zone disappears, "A" band remain the same length and the sarcomere shortens.
|
