Muscupar Vocab Flashcards
Connective tissue that seperates skeletal muscle from adjacent muscle
Fascia
Bundles of muscle fiber
Fascicles
Made of muscle fiber
Fasciculus
Muscle fiber,Many nuclei, mitochondria within the cytoplas, surrounded by sarcolemma
Sarcoplasm
Sarcolemma
Muscle cell membrane
Mytofibrils
Within sarcolemma, thread like structures
Myosin
Thick filament
Actin
Thin filament
Sarcomere
Span between one Z line and the next Z line, functions; unit of muscle
I band
Actin space actin…
A band
Actin, myosin, etc.
H zone
Space, myosin, space, myosin, etc.
Sliding filament theory
Pivot causes myofilaments to move towards another
Muscle contractions
Shortening of muscle sarcomere
Troponin/tropomyosin complex
2 other protein filaments blocking binding sites
