16
Q

Zone of overlap

A

When sarcoma rest of a muscle fiber are stretched to a longer length, the zone of overlaps shortens and fewer myosin heads can contact with thin filaments

17
Q

A band

A

Dark band of the muscle sarcomere that corresponds to the thick myosin. The A band is situated on either side of the H zone. The area where contraction and relaxation occurs.

18
Q

I band

A

The light band on either side of the Z line. Thin (actin) filaments are not overlapped by thick myosin filaments

19
Q

Z-line

A

The borders that separate and link sarcomere said within a skeletal muscle.

20
Q

Tendons

A

Connect muscle to bone

21
Q

M-line

A

A fine line in the center of the A band of the sarcomere of striated muscle myofibrils.

22
Q

H band

A

A pale zone sometimes seen traversing the center of the a band of a striated myofibril.

23
Q

Actinin

A

Necessary for the attachment of actin filaments to the Z-line in skeletal muscle.

24
Q

T-tubule

A

Continuous with sarcolemma and transmit electrical signals.

25
Sarcoplasmic reticulum
Specialized type of smooth ER that regulates Ca ion concentration in the cytoplasm of striated muscles.
26
Triad
A structure formed by a t-tubule with sarcoplasmic reticulum known as the terminal cisterns on either side.
27
F-actin
Linear polymer microfilament
28
G- actin
Monomer (globular)
29
Nebulin
Actin-binding protein which is localized to the thin filament of the sarcomeres.
30
Tropomyosin
Protein involved in muscle contraction. Occurs together with troponin.
31
Troponin
Protein involved in muscle contraction. It occurred with troop myosin in the thin villi nets of muscled tissue.
32
Myosin
A fibrous proteins that forms the contractile filaments of muscle cells and is also involved in motion.
33
Titin
A large fibrous protein that connects thick myosin filaments to Z discs in the sarcomere.
34
Properties of skeletal muscle
1. Excitability 2. Conductivity 3. Contractility 4. Extensibility 5. Elasticity
35
Myoblasts
Muscle stem cells. Divide and merge with others.
36
Satellite cells
Can "wake up" during injury.
