Q

Short fibers create greater force in a pennate muscle, so the greater the force…

A

The lower the velocity, thus long fibers create greater velocity

Q

What stage of a push-up is hardest and why?

A

The start because when muscles are really stretched or shortened, they will be weaker as they need to get to the other “side” of their extreme

16
Q
  1. Power Stroke
A

Pi released= tightens binding
-myosin head conformation change
-reposition angle of attachment
Myosin pulls actin towards M-line

17
Q

Sliding Filament Model Review

A
  1. ATP bound to myosin
  2. ATP hydrolysis, energy stored in myosin head
  3. Loose binding between myosin and actin
    -ATP broken down to ADP+ Pi + Energy
  4. Pi is released -tightens binding
  5. Conformational change of myosin head
  6. Starts pulling of actin towards M-line (cross bridge movement)
  7. Myosin drops ADP as it moves
  8. New ATP binds to myosin
  9. Release of myosin head from actin (cross bridge disassociates)
18
Q

Actin, Myosin, and ATP Review

A
  1. Myosin head bound to ATP
  2. ATP hydrolysis, energy stored in globular head
  3. Myosin loosely interacts with actin
  4. Pi released, myosin and actin bonds tightens
  5. Myosin cross bridge movement starts to creature sliding motion
  6. ADP released
  7. Myosin bins with new ATP, acctomyosin complex dissasociates
19
Q

What are regulatory proteins? (2)

A

Troponin and Tropomyosin

20
Q

What is steric blocking

A

Inhibitory action of regulatory proteins

21
Q

Physiological mechanism of excitation- contraction coupling

A

Electrical discharge at muscle initiates chemical events at cell surface
SR releases intracellular Ca2+
Ca2+ combines to Troponin Troponin pulls tropomyosin off active actin sites (removes inhibitory)
Allows actin to combine with myosin

22
Q

Relaxation of Muscle Process:

A

Ca2+ is actively pumped out and back into the SR by SR ATPase
-removal of Ca2+ restores inhibitory action of Troponin- tropomyosin
Troponin allows tropomyosin to interfere with actin- myosin interaction

23
Q

If a muscle fibre has greater SR ATPase what characteristic would it demonstrate?

A

Fast twitch/ Type 2 properties as it fatigues faster

24
Q

EC Coupling and Sliding Filament Model: Step 1

A

Depolarizationn of T-tubule system causes Ca2+ release from lateral sacs of SR
-Ca2+ binds to Troponin- tropomyosin in actin filaments, releasing inhibition that prevented actin from combining with myosin
Actin combines with myosin

25
Q

EC Coupling and Sliding Filament Model: Step 2

A

Energy produces myosin cross bridge (myosin tightens bond with actin) -creates tension
New ATP binds to myosin cross bridge -breaks actin -myosin bonds
-allows cross bridge disassociation and sliding of thick and thin filaments (muscle shortens)

26
Q

EC Coupling and Sliding Filament Model: Pt 3

A

Cross bridge activation continues when Ca2+ concentration remains high enough to inhibit Troponin- tropomyosin system
When muscle stimulation stops, intracelular Ca2+ concentration decreases fast as Ca2+ moves back into lateral sacs of SR from active transport

27
Q

EC Coupling and Sliding Filament Model: Pt 4

A

Ca2+ removal restores inhibitory action of Troponin- tropomyosin
Actin and myosin remain in disassociated, relaxed state

28
Q

Possible Effects of Caffiene

A

Enhances motor neuronal excitability
CNS stimulant
Increase calcium release from SR, and calcium sensitivity
Improves aerobic endurance performance

29

-deep fascia

30
Q

Epimysium

A

Around entire muscle
-deep fascia

31
Q

Perimysium

A

Around bundles of fibers

32
Q

Endomysium

A

Around individual fibers (between)

33
Q

Full step by Step of muscle contraction

A
  1. Stimulation of muscle signals SSR to release calcium
  2. Calcium binds to Troponin
  3. Troponin pulls/ lifts tropomyosin off actin sites (releases inhibition)
  4. Myosin binds to actin
  5. Myosin cross bridge movement (thick and thin start to slide)
  6. Myosin (actomyosin complex) binds with ATP and causes disassociation of actin and myosin (completes slide)
  7. Calcium is removed (restores inhibition)
  8. Muscle relaxes
