structures found in skeletal muscle fiber
actin filaments, sarcoplasmic reticulum, sarcoplasm, myofilaments, gap junctions
acetylcholinesterase is an important molecule in neuromuscular junctions because:
degrades acetylcholine, aids in relaxation
the connective tissue that surrounds a bundle of muscle fibers
perimysium
the sliding-theory of muscle contraction states that
sarcomeres shorten during contraction
the difference in charge across the plasma membrane of an unstimulated muscle cell is known as
the resting membrane potential
calcium ions diffuse into the cytoplasm surrounding the myofilament proteins from the ———-.
sarcoplasmic reticulum
the proteins that cover the active sites on the thin filaments and are responsible for regulating when a muscle can contract are
tropomyosin and troponin
define elasticity and why its important
elasticity gives muscles the ability to bounce back to their original shape after contraction or extension. this helps retain the shape of muscles and conserves energy since a muscle will return to its original shape passively and retain its optimum length
what is the role of ATP in muscle relaxation
ATP is the energy source for the calcium pump that removes calcium from the sarcoplasm and puts it back in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. sodium potassium pumps are required to return the muscle fiber to resting membrane potential
