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
Q

Sarcoplasmic reticulum

A

Specialized type of smooth ER that regulates Ca ion concentration in the cytoplasm of striated muscles.

26
Q

Triad

A

A structure formed by a t-tubule with sarcoplasmic reticulum known as the terminal cisterns on either side.

27
Q

F-actin

A

Linear polymer microfilament

28
Q

G- actin

A

Monomer (globular)

29
Q

Nebulin

A

Actin-binding protein which is localized to the thin filament of the sarcomeres.

30
Q

Tropomyosin

A

Protein involved in muscle contraction. Occurs together with troponin.

31
Q

Troponin

A

Protein involved in muscle contraction. It occurred with troop myosin in the thin villi nets of muscled tissue.

32
Q

Myosin

A

A fibrous proteins that forms the contractile filaments of muscle cells and is also involved in motion.

33
Q

Titin

A

A large fibrous protein that connects thick myosin filaments to Z discs in the sarcomere.

34
Q

Properties of skeletal muscle

A
  1. Excitability
  2. Conductivity
  3. Contractility
  4. Extensibility
  5. Elasticity
35
Q

Myoblasts

A

Muscle stem cells. Divide and merge with others.

36
Q

Satellite cells

A

Can “wake up” during injury.
