chapter 10 muscles tissues Flashcards
list the functions of the muscles tissues
Producing movement
Maintaining posture and body position
Supporting soft tissues
Guarding body entrances and exits
Maintaining body temperature
Storing nutrients
Collagen fibers of epimysium, perimysium, and endomysium come together
At ends of muscles to form?
tendon and aponeurosis
Surrounds muscle fiber bundles (fascicles)
Contains
Collagen fibers
Elastic fibers
Blood vessels
Nerves
which layer is this one ?
Perimysium
Layer of collagen fibers that surrounds the muscle
Connected to deep fascia
Separates muscle from surrounding tissue which layer is this?
Epimysium
Surrounds individual muscle cells (muscle fibers)
Contains
Capillary networks
Myosatellite cells (stem cells) that repair damage
Nerve fibers
what layer is this ?
Endomysium
Lengthwise subdivisions within a muscle fiber
Responsible for muscle contraction
Made of bundles of protein filaments (myofilaments)
Two types of myofilaments
Thin filaments
Composed primarily of actin
Thick filaments
Composed primarily of myosin
what part is this of the muscles skeleton fiber ?
Myofibril
Smallest functional units of a muscle fiber
Interactions between filaments produce contraction
Arrangement of filaments accounts for striated pattern of myofibrils
what part is this ?
Sarcomeres
Contain F-actin, nebulin, tropomyosin, and troponin proteins
which filament does this belong
thin filament
Dark region
Where thick and thin filaments overlap
what part of the a band is this?
zone of overlap
Holds F-actin strand together
which filament is this one?
Nebulin
Covers active sites on G-actin
Prevents actin–myosin interaction
what filament is this
Tropomyosin
A globular protein
Binds tropomyosin, G-actin, and Ca2+
which filament?
Troponin
def the motorneuron control
a stimulus arrives at the axon terminal
Excitation in contraction what does it release and where does is go into?
release the ach into the synaptic cleft, later into the sacrolemma
release of calcium ions function, where does it travel, where does it relase ca2+
travel down to the sarcolemma and to the t tubules, triggers the release of calcium to the cisternae to the sacroplasmic reticulum
what goes on during the contraction phase, when ca2+ arrvies
ca2+ binds to troponin, creating a cross bridge formation
sarcomere shortening what going on
thick and thin filament are interacting, both ends of the muscles are shortening
what are the steps of the contraction phase in arrival of ca2+
- Contraction cycle begins
- Active-site exposure
3. Cross-bridge formation (myosin binds to actin) - Myosin head pivoting (power stroke)
- Cross-bridge detachment
- Myosin reactivation
