Q

sliding filament theory

A

actin filaments at each end of the sarcomere slide inward on myosin filaments pulling the z-lines toward the center of the sarcomere and thus shortening the fiber

Q

What is the resting phase

A

little Ca is present in the myofibril, few myosin are bound to action, muscle is at rest

30
Q

what is the excitation phase

A

contraction coupling

31
Q

contraction coupling

A

myosin must bind to actin, Ca released from the SR and binds to troponin

32
Q

the amount of force produced by any muscle is directly related to

A

the number of myosin cross bridge heads bound to actin

33
Q

contraction phase

A

energy for cross bridge flexion comes from hydrolysis of ATP to ADP

34
Q

the contraction phase will continue as long as ____ is present

A

Ca

35

47
Q

how do type IIa and type IIx differ?

A

in their capacity for aerobic-oxidative energy supply

48
Q

proprioception

A

specialized sensory receptors located within

49
Q

Muscle spindles

A

provide info concerning muscle length and rate of change in length

50
Q

GTO

A

activated when the tendon attached to an active muscle is stretched

51
Q

Primary roles of CVS are to

A

transport nutrients and remove waste products while maintaining homeostasis

rest of the body

54
Q

each pump has ___ chambers

A

two

55
Q

Atrium

A

left and right atria deliever blood to the left and right ventricles

56
Q

ventricles

A

left and right ventricles supply the main force for moving blood through the pulmonary to the periphery
