week 4 skeletal muscle Flashcards
what is the function of skeletal muscle
posture, breathing, force production , locomotion , endocrine organ, heat production
muscles are attacheted to bones by what
tendons
what is the epimysium
surrounds muscle
what is the perimysium
surround the fascicles
what is the endomysium
surrounds individual muscle fibres
what is basement membrane
just below the endomysium
what is sarcolemma
muscle membrane
what is myofibrils
contains contractile proteins
actin is what filament
thin
myosin is which filament
thicccck
what are the 5 sections of the sarcomere
Z LINE, H ZONE, A BAND, I BAN DAND M LINE
What is transverse tubules
extend from the sarcolemma to the sarcoplasmic reticulum
what is a satellite cell
cells help with growth and repair- increase nuclei in mature muscle fibres
what is the myonuclear domain
the volume of sarcoplasm surrounding nucleus
the more myonuclei means
more protein synthesis
muscle hypertrophy means a what in myonuclei
increase
how are skeletal muscles made
myoblasts fuse together
