structure of skeletal muscles Flashcards
which kind of muscles are branched
cardiac
largest muscle
skeletal
which muscle has the entire sarcomere apparatus absent
smooth muscle
t tubules are absent in
smooth muscles
which muscles never tetanize
cardiac muscles
summation is seen only in
skeletal muscles
resting membrane potential is unstable in
smooth muscles
in smooth muscles calcium binds with
calmodulin
which muscle has neurogenic and myogenic control
skeletal and cardiac respectively
which muscle contracts fastest
skeletal
souce of calcium in smooth muscles
extracellular
multinucleate muscle fibres in
skeletal muscles
which layer covers the epimyesium
fascia
what is a muscle bundle or fasciculi
a group of musscle cells surrounded by perimyesium
what is aponeurosis
tendon that is flat stretched out and tough
are sarcolemma and endomysium separate
yes
groups of myofibrils are known as
cohnheim’s areas
which band is also known as Q disc
+dark band
basic contractile unit of muscle
sarcomere
length of sarcomere
2-3u
length of sarcomere
2-3u
m line is formed by
myosin binding proteins
what is h line
light region in dark band where only myosin is present
serial order of muscle arrangement from largest to smallest
fascia- epimysium- muscle- perimysium- fasciculus- endomysium- sarcolemma- muscle fibre- myofibril - myofilament( actin and myosin)
