12.24 Flashcards
Which of the muscles are the slowest to contract and to relax
smooth muscles
Action potentials in the axon terminal are followed by?
Muscle twitch
What are skeletal muscles classified by?
Speed and fatigue Resistance
What do slow twitch fibers (ST or type 1) rely on?
Rely primarily on oxidative phosphorylation
Which fibers develop tension faster and split ATP more rapidly
Fast-twitch fibers
Function of fast twitch fiber
Develop tension faster
Split A T P more rapidly
Pumps Ca2+ more rapidly into the SR
What pumps Ca2+ into sarcoplasmic reticulum more rapidly/
Fast-twitch fibers
Which fiber Use oxidative and glycolytic metabolism?
Fast-twitch oxidative-glycolytic fiber (F O G or type IIA)
Which fiber Relies primarily on anaerobic glycolysis
Fast-twitch glycolytic fibers (F G or type IIB/X)
what does Fast-twitch glycolytic fibers (F G or type IIB/X) rely on
anaerobic glycolysis
What binds oxygen in muscle so it is readily available for aerobic processes
Myoglobin
Myoglobin
binds oxygen in muscle so it is readily available for aerobic processes
Which fibers have more myoglobin?
oxidative fibers
Which muscle has large amount of red myoglobin, numerous mitochondria, and extensive capillary, blood supply, in contrast to fast-twitch glycolytic muscle?
Slow-twitch oxidative muscle
