Q

Muscle spindles also known as

A

encapsulated proprioceptors

18
Q

Muscle spindles are collectively called

A

intrafusal fibers

19
Q

Muscle spindles are innervated by

A

sensory nerves

20
Q

Skeletal muscle energy is obtained from

A

FA and glucose

* also must have deposits of energy to cope with bursts of activity , thus energy is available from glycogen granules.

21
Q

Type 1

A

slow oxidative fibers (lots of myoglobin)

enerygy derived from oxidative phosphorylation of fatty acids

22
Q

Type IIa

A

Fast oxidative glycolytic fibers

contains myoglobin and stores of glycogen

23
Q

Type IIb

A

fast glycolytic fibers

much less myoglobin

rapidly metabolized glucose from glycogen stores to lactate

24
Q

Cardiac cells branch to form

A

complex junctions

25
Q

Holds cardian muscle cells at their ends for stability and is the anchoring site for actin filaments of terminal sarcomeres

A

Fascia Adherens (Zonula adherens)

26
Q

Fascia Adherens (Zonula adherens)

A

Cardiac muscle cell stability

Anchors actin of terminal sarcomeres

27
Q

Runs parallel to myofilaments

A

Gap junctions

28
Q

Cardiac muscle cells posses diads that consists of

A

one t-tubule and one SR

29
Q

Cardiac energy metabolism

A

aerobic

FA main fuel source

Small amount of glucose is present and can be used in time of stress

30
Q

ANF secreted by RA

A

responds to high blood pressure

effect is to lower blood pressrue

31
Q

Purkinje fibers are innervated by

A

parasympathetic and sympathetic

32
Q

Smooth muscle cells are enclosed by

A

basal lamina

reticular fibers

33
Q

smooth muscle cells

A

are fusimform

single central muclus

34
Q

Caveolae

A

act like t tuble of SM

SM no t tubules

35
Q

Two types of dense bodies of SM

A
  1. Membrane associated
  2. Cytoplasmic

analogous to Z-line

36
Q

alpha actinin

A

actin anchoring protein

37
Q

Myosin interacts with actin only when

A

myosin light chain is phosphorylated

38
Q

What activated MLCK

A

Calcium calmodulin complex

39
Q

SM is innervated by

A

sympathetic and parasympathetic

receives both adrenergic and cholinergic endings that act antagonistically

40
Q

SM cells regerate by

A

hyperplasia and hypertrophy

viable cells can undergo mitosis
