what is the sarcoplasm composed of?

A

has cell organelles like lysosomes, ribosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum (called sarcoplasmic reticulum)

20
Q

what does the sarcoplasmic reticulum do?

A

stores calcium ions and releases ions as needed for muscle contraction

21
Q

what are the transverse tubules?

A

each muscle fiber is primarily composed of myofibrils

Q

what are thick myofilaments?

A

myosin

23
Q

what are thin myofilaments?

A

actin
