1
Q

sliding filament theory steps

A

1)an AP crosses the NMJ
2) Ca2+ channels open ( released from the SR
3) Ca2+ unlocks tropomyosin exposing ht emyosin head binding sites
4) ATP binds to the myosin heads –> ADP +P “ COCK & BIND)
-power stroke occurs
*requires more ATP to do again

25
return after excitation:
Ap--> alog the sarcolemma--> t-tubules---> vg Ca2+ on SR open moves ca@= back--> needs ATP to occur
26
sources of ATP
- creatine phosphate= #1 when muscles at rest the excess ADP + P transfers the p to creatine when muscle =active kinase removes hte p from creatine phosphate---> ATP - anerobic metabolism: breakdown of c6h12o6 #2
27
connective tissue components:
- epi/peri/endomysium -tendons: muscle bone to bone, fibrous/rigid -tendon sheaths: doubed walled tubes of ct (ankle) ligaments: bone to bone, fibrous/rigid fascia: the ct surrounding an organ under the subq

colles fracture is a fracture of the ____
distal radius
55
fracture healing process
1) blood pools, hematoma forms, inflammation(week 1) 2) soft cartillage forms (week 2-3) 3) calus forms stablizing the bone(week 4-26) 4) osteoblasts/clasts continue remodeling (week 17)
56
compartment syndrome:
damage to muscle tissue causing major bleeding trapped within the fascia, too tight and can not expand, increased swelling compresses BV/nerves---> ischemia

77
what does dystrophin dysfunction do?
affects the power stroke of actin and myosin, causes poor tendon reflexes, fat deposits in muscles, cardiomyopahty, khyphois/scoliosis
78
kids who toe walk at age 3 with poor reflexes, and unstable pelvis most likely have
duchenes muscular dystrophy
79
fibromyagia
occurs in women more, ages 20-50, no obvious inflammation, no common patho, Soft tissue pain, tendons but no bones/joints, 18 trigger points to promote episodes, headaches, sleep disorders, N/V
80
compact bone:
outer layer surroundign bone and majes u the hard matrix
81
osteoblasts_____ & osteoclasts______? (functions)
Build boney matrix & breakdown boney matrix

84
endosteum
lines the inside of the compact bone in diaphysis of long bone
85
medullary cavity
inside of diaphysis
86
bone growth
occurs along the ephyseal plate, cells start as chondrocytes in cartillingous matrix, cartillingous tissue ossfies, bone remodelling & balance of osteoblasts/clatss.
87
Ca2+ homeostasis
low--> osteoclast---> reabsorb more boney matrix under influence of PTH and Vit d high--> osteoclast stopped by calcitonin---> osteoblasts ++ matrix production
