muscle fascicles and perimysium
27
The fascicles are composed of
Muscle fibers/ muscle cells
28
Each muscle fiber is surrounded by a connective tissue layer called
endomysium
29
Muscle fibers contain groups of protein fibers called
myofibrils
30
Myofibrils are composed of protein filaments
myofilaments
31
Muscle fiber consists of a plasma membrane ____, cytoplasm ____, ____ and ____
Sarcolemma, sarcoplasm, nuclei and myofibrils
32
The sarcoplasmic reticulum has enlarged sacs called
terminal cisternae
33
Two terminal cisternae lie on either side of inward extensions of the sarcolemma called
Transverse tubules/ T tubules
34
The two terminal cisternae plus the T tubule which forms a ?

45
What are the three componets that make up the actin myofilaments
Globular actin, troponin, tropomyosin
46
It has an active site for myosin binding durign muscle contraction
Globular actin
47
Long, fibrous protein that lies in the groove along the fibrous actin strand
