25
Q

membrane of myocytes; capable of propagating AP to all sarcomere via transverse tubules

A

sarcolemma

26
Q

myosin cross bridges bind to actin and the corssbridges then flex to slide actin

A

contraction

27
Q

myosin filament bind to and move actin filaments; basis for contraction of stimulated skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles

A

sliding filament theory

28
Q

bring action potential into skeletal muscle fibers so the wave of depolarization passes close to the SR stimulating the release of Ca+2

A

transverse tubules

29
Q

located on the SR and and allows Ca+2 calcium release into cytosol

A

ryanodine receptor

30
Q

binds to calcium causing conformational change in tropomyosin

A

troponin

31
Q

pulls tropomyosin of the myosin bind site of actin

A

calcium-troponin complex

32
Q

point of synaptic contact between the axon-terminal of a motor neuron and the muscle fibers it controls

A

neuromuscular junction

33
Q

force generated by muscle on object

A

tension

34
Q

force generated on the muscle

A

load

35
Q

muscle length stays the same tension increase rapidly and dissipates slowly

A

isometric contraction

36
Q

tension does not change; shortening occurs slowly only after taking up elastic tension and the relaxing muscle quickly returns to its resting length

A

isotonic contraction

37
Q

partial dissipation of elastic tension between subsequent stimuli

A

unfused tetanus

38
Q

no time for dissipation of elastic tension between rapidly reoccurring stimuli

A

fused tetanus

39
Q

actin filaments lack room to slide so little tension can be developed

A

short sacromere

40
Q

lots of actin and myosin overlap and plenty of room to slide

A

optimal length sacromere

41
Q

acting and myosin don’t overlap much so little tension developed

A

long sarcomere

42
Q

lose in ability to maintain tension despite stimulation

A

fatigue

43
Q

contract slowly and respond to repetitive stimulation without fatigue

A

slow-oxidative muscle; type 1

44
Q

responds quickly and to repetitive stimulation with intermediate rate of fatigue

A

fast-oxidative glycolytic muscle; type IIa

45
Q

used for quick burst of strong activity

A

fast glycolytic muscle; type IIb

46
Q

proportion of the body size dependent on how many interneurons it has

A

motor homunculus

47
Q

muscle acts as a single unit; synchronous contractions

A

single unit smooth muscle

48
Q

cells respond independently

A

multi-unit smooth muslce

49
Q

A

channel that allow current to flow form one cell to another
