Q

Presence of H zone: relaxation or contraction?

A

Relaxation

18
Q

Absence of H zone: relaxation or contraction?

A

Contraction

19
Q

Space between actin?

A

H zone

20
Q

network of protein fibers forming an attachment site for actin filaments.

A

Z disc

21
Q

consists only of actin filaments that spans each Z disk and ends at myosin filaments.

A

I band

22
Q

central region of sarcomere that extends the length of myosin filaments.

A

A band

23
Q

dark-staining band that is the center of the sarcomere

A

M line

24
Q

framework that holds myosin and actin filaments

A

Titin filamentous molecules

25
Q

contains the M line and myosin filaments which is the space
between ends of actin filaments

A

H zone

26
Q

also called visceral
muscle

A

Smooth Muscle

27
Q

it forms the muscular component of visceral structures such as blood vessels, gastrointestinal tract, uterus and urinary bladder

A

Smooth Muscle

28
Q

also described as involuntary muscle because it is under inherent autonomic and
hormonal control.

A

Smooth Muscle

29
Q

2 Structure of smooth muscles

A

Caveolae
Dense bodies

30
Q

structural and
functional characteristics
intermediate between those of
skeletal and smooth muscle

A

Cardiac Muscle
(myocardium)

31
Q

composed of elongated,
branched individual cells that lie parallel to each other.

A

Cardiac Muscle
(myocardium)

31
Q

have been regarded as the anchoring sites for actin filaments, similar to the Z-disks in striated muscle

A

Dense bodies

31
Q

Flask-shaped plasmalemma invaginations on cell membrane to mediate transport of fluid and macromolecules across the cell via invagination, budding, docking and fusion.

A

Caveolae

32
Q

specialized intercellular
junctions which not
only provide points of
anchorage for the
myofibrils but also
permit extremely rapid
spread of contractile
stimuli from one cell to
another.

A

Intercalated discs

33
Q

What intercellular junction can you find in intercalated disc of cardiac muscle?

A

Gap junctions/Macula Communicans

Q

What type muscle:
(Non-striated, Fusiform)

A

Smooth

36
Q

What type of muscle:
(Cylindrical, striated, branched)
