260
Q

contraction of skeletal muscle by mechanism is described in the sliding filament theory. what are those steps from beginning to end?

A
  1. a nerve impulse travels down a motor nerve axon
  2. Acetylcholine is released into the synaptic cleft, transmitting the impulse to the sarcolemma
  3. Impulse is conducted into the T tubules and to the sarcoplasmic reticulum
  4. Calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
  5. Calcium binds to troponin, which causes a change in the conformation of tropomyosin
  6. this change exposes the myosin binding sites on the actin
  7. ATP is hydrolyzed, providing the energy required for contraction
  8. Myosin binds to actin, forming cross-bridges
  9. Myosin shortens, brings Z bands closer together
    9a. cross-bridges detach, move, and reattach
    9b. myosin continues to attach, pull and detach, which moves the actin toward the center of the sarcomere during this active phase of muscle contraction
