d) all of the above
what suffix is commonly use to describe an enzyme
ase
using this suffix name the enzyme that is involved in the reaction where ATP is broken down for energy
ATPase
which protein interacts with myosin during muscle contraction
actin
which 2 proteins are involved in the blocking of myosin to prevent muscle contraction
troponin
tropomyosin
see diagrams
true or false
there are three main fiber types: fast (Iix), intermediate (IIa) and slow (I)
true
true or false
the fiber types an individual posses is determined by genetics and cannot be changed
false
true or false
Type I fibers are the fastest contracting fibers in humans
false
true or false
strength training leads to a conversion of slow fibers to fast fibers
false

what are considered contractile proteins
actin and myosin
what are considered regulatory proteins
troponin and tropomyosin
which protien binds calcium
troponin
what is bordered by z discs
sarcomere
what protein blocks binding sites on actin
tropomyosin
what protein controls speed of contraction
ATPase
after muscle contracts, what ion must be removed from the cytoplasm of your muscle cells before muscle relaxation can occur
calcium
put in following steps in the process of contraction in proper order
-myosin binds to actin
-muscle relaxes
-calcium binds to troponin
-ATP broken down
-dissociation of actin and myosin
-calcium is removed from troponin
-troponin lifts off tropomyosin off actin
calcium binds to troponin
troponin lifts tropomyosin off actin
myosin binds to actin
ATP broken down
dissociation of actin and myosin
with which type of muscle contraction can you generate the most force
eccentric
