23
Q

what is h line

A

light region in dark band where only myosin is present

24
Q

serial order of muscle arrangement from largest to smallest

A

fascia- epimysium- muscle- perimysium- fasciculus- endomysium- sarcolemma- muscle fibre- myofibril - myofilament( actin and myosin)

25
sliding mechanism is also known as
ratchet mechanism
26
lateral processes from myosin filament
cross bridges
27
which class of myosin in present in sarcomere
Myosin II
28
how many myosin molecules in one myosin filament
200
29
how many chains in one myosin molecule
2 heavy chain and 4 light chain
30
2 parts of each myosin molecule
head part and tail part
31
what is myosin tail formed of
two heavy chains that are helically twisted around each other
32
in which part is myosin head absent
h zone
33
what are the two attachment sites in myosin head
one is for ATP and other is for actin filament
34
f actin is a polymer of
G actin
35
what attaches to active site of actin molecule
myosin head
36
which protein masks the active site of actin
troponin
37
three subunits of troponin
I,T,C
38
which protein connects actin to Z line
actinin
39
which protein runs in close association with actin and parallel to it
nebulin
40

titin
44
which protein connects actin to dystroglycan
dystropin
45

dystrophin
46
sarcoplasmic reticulum is what type of sarcoplasmic tubule
L tubule
47
ECF runs through the lumen of which tubule
t tubule
48
which tubules are close and open
L tubules are closed and T tubules are open(open to exxterior)
49
what are terminal cisternae
a pair of dilated L tubules surrounding T tubule
50
what is a triad in skeletal muscle
a t tubule surrounded by a pair of cisternae
51
function of T tubule
transmission of action potential to interior of myocyte
52
haemogobin analogue in muscles
myoglobin
53
functions of L tubule
storage and release of calcium
54
muscle composition
75% water, 25% solids (20% protein)
