25
where is creatine phosphate stored
in muscle
26
Z line
perpendicular to actin filaments where these filaments join up
27
H zone/ band
only thick filaments- the darkest parts where where the parallel A and I bands overlap
28
sacroplasmic reticulum
specialised endoplasmic reticulum of a muscle fibre, containing high conc of Ca2+ ions
29
actin
globular protein that thin filament are made of
30
what forms the I band
actin
31
what is the joining part of cardiac cells called
intercalated discs
32
do cardiac muscle fatigue
no
33
what do gap junctions do in cardiac muscle
allow impulses to spread quickly bc ions pass
34
why is there so much cardiac muscle
to provide ATP for respiration
35
which organelles are packed into cardiac cells
mitochondria and myoglobin- unload any oxygen to muscle cells
36
what form do muscle cells take- shape
branched
37
is cardiac muscle striated
yes
38
are cardiac cells involuntary
yes
39
is smooth muscle involuntary
yes
40
which part of the PNS innervates SM
autonomic
41
is SM striated
no
42
is skeletal muscle involuntary
no
43
is skeletal muscle striated
yes
44
what is bigger myofibril/ muscle fibre
muscle fibre
45
does skeletal muscle fatigue
yes
46
nuclei of skeletal muscle
multinucleated
47
which muscle is striated and stimulated by conscious, vol control
skeletal
48
how many muscle fibres in a muscle
thousands
49
what attaches muscle to bone
tendon
50
are the mitochondria inside the myofibrils
no
51
can you see filaments with a light microscope
no
52
which filament has heads on it
myosin
53
where are myosin tails arranged to point towards
the centre of the sarcomere
54
where do the myosin heads point towards/away
the sides of the myofilament band, away from M line
55
role of tropomyosin
reinforce the structure of actin
56
what can't adrenaline pass through cell membranes
it is hydrophobic therefore
57
why is adrenaline described as a hormone
chemical messenger binds to the receptors on the surface of hepatocyte triggering a chain reaction inside the hepatocyte
58
what is activated when adrenaline binds to the receptor
adenylyl cyclase
59
describe the action of adrenaline
app rec site fuses to rec site activating adenylyl cyclase enz enz conv ATP to cyclic AMP, which acts as a 2nd mess that actvates other enz tht in turn onv glycogen into glucose
60
main function of adrenaline during fof
trigger hepatocytes to undergo glycogenolysis to that glucose is released into the blood stream
61
what does the releasing of glucose into the bloodstream allow
respiration to increase so more energy is available for muscle contraction
62
how does more glucose in the blood increase respiration
.
63
first messenger
a hormone that transmits a chemical signal around the body- adrenaline
64
second messanger
transmits a chemical signal intracellularly-cyclic AMP
65
suggest what happens to the polysccharides in the hepatocyte as a result of the action of adrenaline
glycogen broken down into glucose by hydrolysis | glycogen phosphorylase stimulates conversion of glycogen to glucose
66
describe and explain how the activation of the fof aff voluntary, invol and cardiac muscle
.
67
where is adenylyl cyclase present
cell membrane
68
what is one cardiac cycle equal to
one heart beat
69
myogenic
cardiac muscle can initiate its own pacemaker, dx need NS/ES
70
BLTR
bicuspid valve left | tricuspid valve right
71
cardiac output
stroke volume x heart rate
72
units of CO
cm3/min
73
SV units
vol
74
HR units
bpm
75
stroke volume
vol of blood leaving left ventricle w/each beat
76
centres in the medulla oblongata linked to SAN in heart by motor neurones
cardiovascular-acceleratory system | cardio-inhibitory system
77
cardiovascular-accelatory system
connected by accelatory nerve through sympathetic NS | inc HR and CO
78
cardio-inhibatory system
linked by vagus nerve, impluse though parasympathetic NS decreases HR and CO
79
effects of exercise on CO (neg feedback loop)
inc metabolic activity, inc co2 conc bc of a.resp, dec blood pH centre in med(cas) inc freq of impulses 2 SAN via symp NS, SAN inc HR, inc blood flow removed co2 quicker, co2 conc returns to optimum
80
why is it essential that HR inc
to prov extra ox req for inc respiration
81
what is HR controlled by
autonomic NS
82
is HR vol/invol
involuntary
