16
Q

Titin

A

springy anchors the thick filament to z disk

17
Q

Nebulin

A

twists around thin filament for structure

18
Q

Tropomodulin

A

Caps the - end of the thin filament

19
Q

CapZ

A

anchors + end of thin filament to the z disk

20
Q

Muscle myosin moves towards the:

A

+ end

21
Q

“twitch” vertebrate muscles are innervated by:

A

1 motor neuron

22
Q

What ensures depolarization in skeletal muscles

A

T-tubules - increase SA and allows for deep depolarization OR multiple innervations like tonic muscles

23
Q

DHPR opens:

A

Extracellular Ca

24
Q

RyR

A

physically linked to DHPR, RYR allows Ca to exit the SR

25
Q

Ca ATPase

A

Ca out of cell

26
Q

NaCaX

A

out of the cell

27
Q

SERCA pumps

A

Ca back into SR

28
Q

Troponin TnC

A

Binds to Ca

29
Q

Toponin TnI

A

Inhibitory: binds to actin

30
Q

Troponin TnT

A

binds to tropomyosin

31
Q

Why does summation happen

A

Increased calcium contraction when another stimuli is present

32
Q

When force was so high velocity is

A

zero

33
Q

Myogenic

A

contract in response to input from other muscle cells

34
Q

Cardiomyoctyes use what type of calcium releasee

A

Calcium induced, why? because RyR is not physically linked to DHPR

35
Q

Why is there sustained membrane potential in Cardiomyocytes

A

DHPR says open longer

36
Q

Myogenic uses

A

Gap junctions Neuro

37
Q

Neurogenic

A

stimulated by nerves

38
Q

parvalbumin

A

cytosolic calcium buffer that reduces calcium concentration in the cell
