Q

The thick filament of the sarcomere Is made out of ___________

A

Myosin

26
Q

The thin filament of the sarcomere Is made out of ___________

A

Actin

27
Q

The thin filament of the sarcomere is associated with these 2 regulatory proteins

A

Troponin and tropomyosin

28
Q

This describes how the sarcomere shortens

A

The sliding filament model of muscle contraction

Thin filaments slide past thick filaments towards the M line

29
Q

Number the process from (1-6)

Myosin head on thick filament binds to thin filament

And results into what?

A

3.

Cross bridge formation

30
Q

Number the process from (1-6)

Myosin head re-cocks

Continue to pull as long as ATP is available and binding sites are exposed

A

5.

31
Q

Number the process from (1-6)

Calcium released from SR binds to troponin

A

1.

32
Q

Number the process from (1-6)

Myosin head uses the power of ATP to pull filaments towards the M line

A

4.

33
Q

Number the process from (1-6)

Z discs move closer together and sarcomere shortens

A

6.

34
Q

Number the process from (1-6)

Shape changes shape tropomyosin

A

2.

35
Q

What regulates the cross bridge formation between thick and thin myosin

A

Troponin and tropomyosin

36
Q

This wraps around the thin (actin) filament and covers myosin (thick filament) binding sites

A

Tropomyosin

37
Q

This moves tropomyosin to expose myosin binding sites on the actin filament

A

Troponin

38
Q

Occurs when calcium ions bind to ________

A

Troponin

39
Q

This occurs when muscles can no longer contract

A

Muscle fatigue

40
Q

What are the multiple causes of muscle depletion

A

Lack of ATP

Lactip acid and ADP build up

Impaired ion movement

Inadequate release of calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum

41
Q

Type of muscle fiber
Contracts slowly
Weakest
Produces ATP via aerobic respiration
Fatigues the slowest
Maintains posture and stabilizes joints

A

Slow oxidative muscle fiber

42
Q

Slow oxidative muscle fiber is red because of the presence of __________

A

Myoglobin

43
Q

This type of muscle fiber has
Fast contractions
Strongest
Produces ATP via glycolysis
Stores glycogen in higher amounts
Fatigues quickly
Is used for fast powerful movements

A

Fast glycolytic muscle fibers

44
Q

Posseses characteristics of both SO AND FG
Contracts quickly
More fatigue resistant than FG fibers
Used for walking

A

Fast oxidative muscle fibers

45
Q

Fast oxidative muscle fibers are also known as _________

A

Intermediate fibers

46
Q

Force generated by muscle contraction

A

Muscle tension

47
Q

When a muscle contracts but does not move a load

A

Isometric contraction

48
Q

When a muscle contracts and moves a load

A

Isotonic contraction

49
Q

Muscles lengthen and moves a load

A

Eccentric contraction

50
Q

Muscles shorten and moves a load

A

Concentric contraction

51
Q

Singular contraction of a muscle cell

A

Twitch

52
Q

Displays the amount of tension produced by a twitch over a period of time

A

Myogram

53
Q

Action potential is propagated along the sarcolemma and calcium ions release from SR

No contractions occur during this phase

A

Latent phase

54
Q

Cross bridges have formed and sarcomeres shorten

Peak of tension

A

Contraction phase

55
Q

Calcium ions are pumped back to SR an cross bridge cycling stops

Tension decreases

A

Relaxation phase

56
Q

Run the length of the muscle fiber and attach to the sarcolemma

A

Myofibrils

57
Q

Region spanning the length of the thick filament

A
