16
Q

Break down of ACh to enzyme

A

Inflow of NA ions down concentration gradient

17
Q

Sliding filament mechanism

A

Shortening of sarcomeres causes shorting of muscle fibers

18
Q

ATP contraction

A
  1. ATP splits because of myosin and becomes energised
  2. Myosin head attaches to actin forming a cross bridge
  3. Cross bridge generates force at it moves towards center of sarcomere
  4. Myosin detached from actin and ATP splits agin and returns to original position to bind to a new site in the a fib to continue the contraction cycle
19
Q

Agonist muscles

A

Produces desired action

20
Q

Antagonist

A

Opposite action

21
Q

Synergist

A

Removes unnecessary movement/ reduces them

22
Q

Fixator

A

Stabilises origin for more efficient move

23
Q

Origin

A

Attachment to stable bone origin form scapula
