When muscle contracts upon stimulation, calcium ions bind to __________, which exposes the binding sites for the myosin cross‐bridges to attach to. |
|
Phosphate |
In order to make ATP (adenosine triphosphate) in muscles, creatine phosphate (CP) transfers __________ to adenosine diphosphate (ADP). |
|
Anaerobic |
Lactic acid, a byproduct of cellular respiration, is typically produced during __________ respiration. |
|
CP, anaerobic respiration, aerobic respiration |
correct sequence for the production of ATP for muscle contraction? |
|
sarcoplasmic reticulum |
Calcium ions will cause the troponin/tropomyosin complex to move in such a manner as to expose the actin binding sites. The calcium ions are released from the __________ |
|
Actin |
The binding sites for the cross‐bridges are located on __________. |
|
aerobic respiration |
Which reaction produces the most ATP for muscle contraction? |
|
The next muscle contraction will be greater than the previous muscle contraction. |
What will occur if calcium ions are not completely reabsorbed? |
|
Creatine phosphate * https://courses.lumenlearning.com/nemcc-ap/chapter/muscle-fiber-contraction-and-relaxation/#m46447-fs-id2164808 |
A molecule that can store energy in its phosphate bonds. |
|
Depolarization |
Caused when sodium channels open, which elicits an action potential that propagates along the cell |
|
Repolarization |
The stage of an action potential in which the cell experiences a decrease of voltage due to the efflux (flowong out) of potassium (K+) ions along its electrochemical gradient. |
|
Repolarization |
This phase occurs after the cell reaches its highest voltage from depolarization. |
|
Myosin |
Refers a protein that makes a thick filament |
|
Actin |
Refers a protein that makes a thin filament |
|
Actin |
Consists of troponin and tropomyosin |
|
Myosin |
Consists of meromyosin |
|
Actin |
Surface is smooth |
|
Myosin |
Surface is rough |
|
Myosin |
Forms cross bridges |
|
Actin |
Found in A and I bands |
|
Myosin |
Found only in A bands of the sarcomere |

Do not slide during contraction |
|
Actin |

|
All or none law |
Principle that states that the strength of a response of a nerve cell or muscle fiber is not dependent upon the strength of the stimulus. If a stimulus is above a certain threshold, a nerve or muscle fiber will fire. |
|
Lactic Acid Fermentation |
This process breaks down glucose into two lactate molecules. Then, lactate and hydrogen form lactic acid Happens when no more O² is availible |
