myofibrils are made up of

Answer 36

sarcomeres

Question 37

sarcomeres are the

Answer 37

smallest contractile unit

Question 38

how do sarcomeres shorten

Answer 38

bc within they have protein myofilaments

Question 39

skeletal muscle filaments

Answer 39

thick myosin thin actin elastic titin

Question 40

thick filaments

Answer 40

flexible tail with hing between two heads so we can wrap around

Question 41

thick filament cross bridge

Answer 41

contraction allow heads to bind to thin filaments

Question 42

when muscle is rest

Answer 42

actin covered up by tropomyosin and then troponin

Question 43

troponin decides

Answer 43

if tropomyosin binds or un binds

Question 44

sliding filament theory states

Answer 44

thick and thin filaments must slide past eachother due to formation of cross
