Q

How are the various connective tissue layers of the muscle connected to each other?

A

Fibers from the endomysium and perimysium are woven into each other.

All three come together at the end of the muscle to form a tendon or aponeurosis

Q

Perimysium

A
  • Surrounds muscle fascicles
  • Connective tissue with collagin and elastic fibers
  • Contains nervs and blood vessels

Q

Treppe

A

Muscle gets stimulated quickly enough that the peak of the contraction phase keeps getting higher, but the muscle is allowed to fully relax inbetween twitches.

Q

22
Q

What is the border between sarcomeres called?

23
Q

Line where actin filaments are attached

24
Q

Steps in cellular respiration

25
Which part of the sarcoplasmic reticulum is in contact with the transverst tubules?
The Terminal Cisterna
26
Basic formula for cellular respiration
O2 + glucose → ATP + CO2 + H2O
27
How does calcium get from the sarcoplasmic reticulum to the myofibrils?
Voltage gated calcium channels
28
Endomysium
* Surrounds individual muscle cells (fibers) * Contains satellite cells, capillaries, and nerves * Areolar connective tissue
29
Stretchy molecule that binds the tips of the Myosin molecules to the Z line
Titin
30
Incomplete tetanus
Muscle stimulation comes quick enough that the relaxation period starts getting shorter.
31
How does calcium allow actin to pull the myosin along?
Calcium (Ca2+) binds to Troponin complex, pulling Tropomyosin out of the way of the Myosin binding sites on the Actin.
32
What are the steps of the "sliding fillament thingy" that use ATP?
Unactivated Myosin + ATP → activated Myosin Activated Myosin + Actin → MOVEMENT Post movemente Myosin + ATP → unactivated Myosin
33
M-Line
Where Myosin molecules are bound together
34
Label the things!
35
What are thin filaments made of?
Two strands of Actin, twisted with Tropomyosin, smattered with Troponin
36
Tetanus
Stimulation rate increases until the relaxion phase disapears
37
Basic unit of muscle contraction
Sarcomere
38
Actin and Myosin are:
Myofilaments
39
Connective tissue connecting muscle to muscle
Aponeurosis
40
Pump that maintains normal membrane potential
Na+/K+ ATPase (maintains higher sodium outside and higher potassium inside)
41
bundle of muscle fibers controlled by the same nerve
motor unit
42
Epimysium
* Surrounds muscle organ * Connected to deep fascia * Dense irregular CT
43
Holds actin strands together
nebulin
44
Band with myosin
A-band
45
Cell membrane of a myocyte
Sarcolemma
46
Muscle contraction where length does not change
isometric
