Q

Transverse Tubules (T-Tubules) Function

A

Conducts nerve impulse quickly from sacrolemma through muscle fiber

17
Q

Muscle fiber primarily composed of?

18
Q

Myofibrils

A

Run the length of muscle, as long as muscle fiber

19
Q

Myofibril composed of?

20
Q

Myofilaments

A

Need to run length of muscle. Protein filaments

21
Q

Thick Myofilaments name?

22
Q

Thick Myofilament

A

Each thick myofilament surrounded by six thin myofilaments

23
Q

Thin Myofilaments name??

24
Q

Light Bands Name

25
I Band Components
Thin Myofilaments only Thin doesn't block light Shortens when contracted
26
Dark Bands Name
A Bands
27
A Bands Components
Thick and Thin Myofilaments Can block more light Doesn't shorten
28
Dark structure in the middle of an I Band?
Z Disc
29
Z Disc
Dark structure in the middle of an I Band Thin myofilaments attach Doesnt Shortens when contracted
30
H Zone
Lighter, Central Region in the Middle of A Band | Shortens when contracted
31
What kind of filaments are in H Zone
Thick Myofilaments
32
M Line
Dark Line in middle of H Zone | Doesnt Shortens when contracted
33
What kind of Filaments attach to M Line
Thick Myofilaments
34
Sacromere
Runs from Z Disc to Z Disc Muscle will contract from one Z Dick to Another Many Sacromeres along length of muscle fiber Shortens when contracted
35
Sliding Filament Model of Contraction
Thick and thin myofilaments slide over one another When muscles contract, they begin to overlap Sacromeres shorten, H Zones Narrow, I Bands Narrow
36
Muscle Components from smallest subunits to the largest
``` Myofilament Myofibril Muscle Fiber Fascicle Muscle ```
