Ch 48: Musculoskeletal Systems Flashcards
(42 cards)
Vertebrate muscle for voluntary movement…
Skeletal
Three types of vertebrate muscle…
- skeletal
- cardiac
- smooth
Vertebrate muscle for heart beat…
Cardiac
Vertebrate muscle for involuntary movement of internal organs
Smooth
Skeletal muscle cells are called…
-large and multinucleate
Muscle fibers
Muscle fibers form from fusion of embryonic…
Myoblasts
One muscle consists of many muscle fibers bundled together by…
Connective tissue
2 contractile proteins:
- actin
- myosin
Thin filaments
Actin
Thick filaments
Myosin
- each muscle finer has several…
- bundles if actin and myosin filament
Myofibrils
Each myofibril consists of…
- repeating units of overlapping actin and myosin fibers
- create distinct banding pattern
Sarcomeres
Each sarcomere is bounded by…
-anchor actin
Z lines
Parts of sarcomere
- Z lines
- A band
- H zone and I band
- M band
- Center of sarcomere
- contains all myosin
A band
- part f sarcomere
- no overlap of actin and myosin
- (light)
H zone and I band
- part of sarcomere
- located within H zone
- contains proteins that help hold myosin filaments in regular arrangement
- (dark)
M band
- Largest protein in the body
- runs the full length if the sarcomere (from Z line to Z line)
Titin
Bundles of myosin filaments are held in the center of the sarcomeres by…
Titin
When muscle contracts, sarcomeres ….. and band pattern …..
Shorten, changes
…… of muscle contraction depends in structure if actin and myosin molecules
Sliding filament model
Myosin molecule has ……. coiled together, engine in a globular head
2 polypeptide chains
Myosin moodle clue has 2 polypeptide chains coiled together, ending in a …..
Globular head
Myosin filament is many molecules in ….
