Q

The Anatomy of Skeletal or Striated Muscle

A
  • Skeletal muscle cell surrounded by sarcolemma
  • Fasciculi: bundles of fascicles
  • Fascicles: individual bundles of muscle fibers
  • Perimysium: surrounds each fascicle
  • Epimysium: covers the perimysium
  • Fascia: covers the epimysium•Myosin: A bands
  • Actin: I bands
  • Z lines
  • H zone
  • Sarcomere: between two adjacent Z lines–Actual contraction process occurs here
  • Sarcotubular system–T system and sarcoplasmic reticulum

Q

The Physiology of Muscle Contraction: Neuroelectrical Factors

A

•Na+ higher concentration outside muscle cell
•K+ higher concentration inside muscle cell
•Resting potential: charge outside positive and inside negative
•Electrical potential: rush of Na+ inside cell
•K+ moves outside cell attempting to balance
•Action potential
–Calcium released
–Troponin and tropomyosin action inhibited
–Activated myosin links to actin filaments

Q

The Physiology of Muscle Contraction: Chemical Interactions

A
  • Myosin heads contain ATP
  • ATP releases energy upon myosin/action link
  • Energy released used to pull action
  • Sodium: potassium pump pumps out sodium
  • Resting potential restored
