Q

components of a biological control system

A
  1. stimulus excites receptor

16
Q

describe action potential

A

action potential leads to synapse, Ca^2+ channel opens, Ca goes into cell, ACh either binds to nicotinic receptor or gets broken down by enzyme acetylcholinesterase

23
Q

binds to actin in thin myofilaments to hold the troponin-tropomyosin complex in place

A

troponin I

24
Q

binds to tropomyosin, interlocking them to form a troponin-tropomyosin complex

A

Troponin T

25
Q

binds to calcium ions

A

Troponin C

26
Q

filamentous actin, whole picture

A

F actin

27
Q

what makes the myosin head bind and perform perfect stroke

A

Calcium

28
Q

elastic elements in I band, helps with stretching

A

Titin

29
Q

links together adjacent myofibrils

A

Desmin

30
Q

protein assemblies in striated muscle that physically couple filaments to sarcolemma

A

costamere

31
Q

most important costamere

A

dystrophin

32
Q

finish this sentence: the more sarcomeres,

A

the greater force you produce

33
Q

what is activated by membrane depolarization?

A

DHP (dihydropyridine receptor)

34
Q

then what happens?

A

DHP reacts with ryanodine receptor to release Ca into cytosol from SR to activate contraction

35
Q

slow twitch fibers

A

type 1 fibers: slow-twitch, oxidative, MHC I

36
Q

Fast twitch fibers

A

type IIx fibers: fast-twitch, glycolytic, MHC IIx

type IIa fibers: intermediate fibers, oxidative and glycolytic, MHC IIa

37
Q

number of mitochondria

A

type IIx: low
type IIa: high/mod
type I: high

38
Q

resistance to fatigue

A

type IIx:low
type IIa: high/mod
type I: high

39
Q

predominant energy system

A

type IIx: anaerobic
type IIa: combination
type I: aerobic

40
Q

myosin ATPase activity:

A

type IIx: highest
type IIa: high
type I: low

41
Q

Vmax

A

type IIx: highest
type IIa: intermediate
type I: low

42
Q

what muscle type creates the greatest force?

A

pennate because more sarcomeres = greater force

43
Q

peak power ratio of type IIx:IIa:I

A

10:5:1

44
Q

hypertrophy:

A

making muscle fibers bigger

45
Q

protein right after exercise:

A

increases muscle protein synthesis

46
Q

sensory fiber Ia:

A

muscle spindle: muscle length

47
Q

sensory fiber Ib:

A

golgi tendon organ: muscle tension

48
Q

III and IV:

A

free nerve endings, pain and temp

49
Q

what happens when Golgi Tendon Organ is stimulated?

A

antagonist is activated and agonist is inhibited

50
Q

what are the 2 main causes of DOMS

A

muscle damage and inflammation

51
Q

prostaglandin

A

increases inflammation and hypertension

52
Q

histamine

A

causes leaky capillaries, edema

53
Q

what enzyme produces prostaglandins

A

cyclooxygenase (COX)

54

how can you reduce DOMS?

A

heat muscles to 40d C day before exercise

produce DOMS
