myofibril

A

long, cylinder organelle composed of muscle proteins

26
Q

myofillament

A

muscle proteins that make up myofibril in fiber

27
Q

sarcomere

A

basic muscle fiber unit

28
Q

actin

A

thin filament consisting of many subunits, bind to myosin head to make filament

29
Q

myosin

A

club shaped protein in fiber, cells are motille

30
Q

troponin

A

2nd regulatory protein, holds tropomyosin in place

31
Q

tropomyosin

A

long ropelike regulatory protein, covers active sites

32
Q

titin

A

darker , block light , appear darker

36
Q

h zone

A

slightly lighter middle

Q

m line

A

dark line running through middle

38
Q

zone of overlap

A

overlapping filaments, tension generated during muscle contraction

39
Q

neuromuscular junction

A

where neuron communicates with fiber

40
Q

axon terminal

A

knoblike structure at end of axon containing synaptic vessels with neurotransmitters

41
Q

neurotransmitter/ach

A

chemical messenger produced by neurons communicating with target cells

42

A

small space between axon terminal of presynaptic neuron and target cell

43
Q

motor end plate

A

contains receptors for ach

44
