Q

What are the 4 phases for a twitch contraction?

A
  • latent phase- waiting for calcium ions to enter channel
  • contraction phase- cell depolarizes, making charges equal on both sides
  • refractory phase- cell is completely depolarized, “at the refractory phase the cell has lost its membrane potential and can’t respond to a stimulus from another neuron”
  • repolarization (relaxation) phase- ATP pumps sodium out of the cell, restoring the membrane potential
