Q

Why does the sarcolemma have T Tubules

A

Allow the muscle action potential to spread to all parts of the muscle quickly.

Q

What is the thick filament made up of

A

Myosin

17
Q

What does tropomyosin do?

A

Blocks the ‘binding’ site at rest

18
Q

What does troponin do?

A

Supporting structure for tropomyosin and changes shape when in contact with a calcium ion therefore the actin and myosin can bind and contract the muscle.

19
Q

What muscle fibre angle produces the most force?

A

short, slanted fibers therefore large diameter

20
Q

What muscle fibre angle produces the most velocity?

A

Long, straight fibers therefore small diameter.

21
Q

How many actin filaments surround a myosin filament?

A

6

22
Q

What axes goes through the belly button?

A

Sagittal

23
Q

What axes goes through both iliac crests?

A

Frontal

24
Q

What axes goes through the top of your head downwards?

A

Longitudinal

25
Q

What is it called when you move your ankle inwards and outwards?

A

Inversion Eversion
