Muscle Tissue Flashcards
3 Type of Muscles
Skeletal, Cardiac, Smooth
Myo
Muscle
Sarco
Flesh
Epimysium
Exterior, Connected to Deep Fascia
Perimysium
Surrounds Muscle Bundles (fascicles) Contains BV and Nerves
Endomysium
Surrounds Individual Muscle Cell Capillarities, Nerve Fibers, Stem Cells
Structure of Muscles
Muscle Tissue, Connective Tissue, Nerves, BV
Muscle Fibers
Fusion of Myoblasts, Hundered of Nuclei
Sacroplasm
Cytoplasm of a MF
Sacrolemma
Cell Membrane of a MF
T-Tubles
Transverse Tubules, A Extension of Sarcolemma, Transmits Action Potential
Sacroplasmic Reticulum (SR)
Smooth ER of Muscle, Membrane Structure Surrounding the Myofibril (Storage of ca2+)
Triad
Terminal Cisternae (Enlarged SR) + TTubule= Diffusion (communicate)
Myofibril
Made of Myofilaments
Thin Filaments
Protein Actin
Thick Filaments
Protein Myosin
F-Actin
Whole Molecule, 2 Strands of G-Actin
G-Actin
Globular Protien
Structure of Myosin
Tail: Binds The Myosin Together
Head: Reaches For Actin
Sarcomere
Functional Unit of a Contraction, Z-Line to Z-Line
Z-Line
End of a Sacromere, made of actin and thin filaments.
M-Line
Middle of Sacromere, Stabilizes Myosin
A Band
Dark, Entire Myosin Range (Never Moves)
H Band
Only Myosin, (center) Thick Band, Thick Filaments
I Band
Only Actin, Thin Filaments
Zone of Overlap
H,I Bands
Titin
Tip of Myosin Filament to the Z-Line, Stabilizes Thick
Nebulin
Holds the F-Actin Together
Tropomyosin
Prevents Actin-Myosin Interaction (rest)
