Q

CBC: What happens after Myosin head is attached to F-site?

A

Tension in head is used as energy and pulls at F-site to bring Z-discs closer together and slide actin filament to the right [contraction]

25
Q

What is a H band

A

Only Myosin

26
Q

What is a Myofibril
*how many makes up a muscle fiber
*Less or more for fine motor movement muscles

A

Contain actin and myosin; 200 or more per muscle fiber; less for more fine motor movement muscles

27
Q

What is Rigor Mortis, per lecture?

A

Stiff muscles from no ATP [myosin heads stuck on F-sites]

28
Q

What is Active Tension?
*Shape on graph

A

Tension from contracting muscle with AP
*upside U or V shape

29
Q

Contraction of Myofibril: What happens to the I band

A

I band shrinks; the part where no overlap of actin and myosin is the part where the muscle shrinks during contraction

30
Q

How do skeletal muscles get proteins down the muscle for rebuilding?

A

Skeletal muscles are one of the only muscles that are multi-nucleated, allowing for proteins to be produced throughout the muscle

31
Q

Ocular Muscle Muscle Contraction

A

short lived, but rapid start [less myoglobin and mitochondria]

32
Q

What does a ligament connect
*3 examples

A

Bone to Bone [patellar, ACL, MCL]

33
Q

L-T Relationship: D Fiber Stretching

A

Overstretched = no force produced

34
Q

What is an I band

A

Band of only Actin

35
Q

What is Myoglobin
*how does it help mitochondria
*affinity for O2

A

Protein that contains iron and helps O2 unload from blood to muscle
*helps by giving O2 so mitochondria can use it as energy to create ATP
*high affinity for O2

36
Q

What is the Troponin Complex?
*3 Parts with Function

A

3 proteins stuck together to help with binding of F-site and myosin head
* Trop I - Actin
*Trop T - TropoMyosin
* Trop C - 4 binding sites for Ca++ to allow for rotate/unravel for F-sites to be seen/bound

37
Q

Essential Light Chain vs Regulatory Light Chain

A

Essential - Gives Myosin head ATPase activity
Regulatory - helps with specific functions

38
Q

7 things muscle does for the body

A

Locomotion
Expression
Communicate
Body temp
Store glycogen
Effectors from CNS
Stores ions, fluids, proteins

39
Q

Large mu’s
*Reason
*which order are they activated and are they easy or hard to activate

A

Larger motor movements
*Activated 2nd, harder to excite

40
Q

L-T Relationship: Original A fiber

A

Cardiac Ventricle; Frank Starling; little understretched to allow for big stretch and push blood out

41
Q

CBC: How does the Myosin Head look in the “ready to go” state

A

Cocked in perpendicular angle with ADP and Pi attached

42
Q

How many Myosin Molecules per Myosin Filament

A

200

43
Q

What is a motor unit

A

1 or more collection of muscle fibers that is controlled by a single motor neuron

44
Q

What do Tendons Connect
*Which tendon connects muscle to muscle

A

Muscle to bone
*Intermediate tendons connect muscle to muscle

45
Q

Example of Type 1 and Type 2 Skeletal Muscles

A

Type 1: Duck and Goose breast; dark meat
Type 2: Chicken breast; white meat

46
Q

Sarcomere Anatomy

A
  1. Z-Disc
  2. I Band [actin only]
  3. A Band [actin + myosin]
  4. H Band [myosin only]
  5. Titin

  2. Striation from Actin and Myosin
48
Q

Muscle Cell Wall name

A

Sarcolemna

49
Q

Type 1 Skeletal Muscle
*Color [and why]
*Speed and duration of contraction
*Myoglobin and Mitochondria

A

Red, b/c of the iron found in myoglobin
*Slow onset but long, sustained contraction
*Lots of Myoglobin and Mitochondria

50
Q

Contraction of Myofibril: What happens to the Z discs

A

The Z-discs move closer together

51
Q

More than 1 group of muscle cells

A

Fasciculus

52
Q

CBC: How to get Myosin head unattached?

A

Has to come in contact with ATP

53
Q

What is the F-Site in Actin

A

Binding sites for Myosin Head

54
Q

What is an A band

A

Band of both actin and myosin [overlap of filaments = produce force]

55
Q

Describe Actin color and thick or thin

A

White and thin

56
Q

CBC: Last step before “recocking” myosin head back to ready state

A

ATP metabolized into ADP and Pi, allowing for Myosin to be reset and in the ready to go state

57
Q

Muscle is made up of _

A

Many Fasciculi

58
Q

Small mu’s
*Reason
*which order are they activated and are they easy or hard to activate

A

Fine motor control, less skeletal muscle cells
*activated 1st, easy

59
Q

What is total tension?

A

Active + Passive Tension

60
Q

How many chains does a Myosin Filament have?

A

6 total
*2 Heavy
