Q

which filament is A bands?

A

thick filaments

21
Q

which filament is I bands?

A

thin filaments

22
Q

2 components of thin filament

A
  • tropomyosin
  • troponin
23
Q

what can tropomyosin do?

A

Blocks active site on G-actin

24
Q

what can troponin do?

A

Binds tropomyosin to F-actin regulated by Ca2+

25
thick filament contain _________ strands that recoil after stretching
titin
26
Ca2+ bind to receptor on ________ molecule during cross bridge formation
troponin
27
exposure of active site of F-actin casue _______ to bind
myosin
28
events during sliding filament theory
- thin filament: move toward M line - A zone: same length - Z line: move closer together
29
what happen to Ca2+ during relaxation?
- concentration drop - detaches from troponin
30
Rigor Mortis
A fixed muscular contraction after death
31
what caused rigor mortis?
Ion pumps cease to function
32
Tension produced by a fiber depends on:
* number of pivoting cross-bridges * resting length at the time of stimulation * The frequency of stimulation
33
A single neural stimulation produces a single contraction =
twitch
34
wave summation?
Increasing tension or summation of twitches
35
Tension produced by entire muscle depends on:
* Internal tension produced by muscle fibers * External tension exerted on elastic fibers * Total number of muscle fibers stimulated
36
Multiple muscle fibers controlled by a single _____ _______
motor neuron (motor unit)
37
Recruitment
multiple motor unit summation
38
Muscle tone
The normal tension of a muscle at rest
39
Muscle Hypertrophy
* Increases diameter of muscle fibers (not number) * Increases number of myofibrils
40
Muscle Atrophy
Lack of muscle activity -> Reduces muscle size, tone, and power
41
Muscle Fatigue
no longer perform a required activity
42
Muscle Performance
- force - endurance
43
Force
tension produced during contraction
44
Endurance
amount of time an activity can be sustained
45
Skeletal muscles consist of a mixture of 3 fiber types:
* Slow oxidative (SO) fibers – Type I * Fast oxidative (FO) fibers – Type IIa * Fast glycolytic (FG) fibers – Type IIb
46
Slow oxidative (SO) fibers – Type I
Small, aerobic, fatigue resistant
47
Fast oxidative (FO) fibers – Type IIa
Intermediate
48
Fast glycolytic (FG) fibers – Type IIb
Large, anaerobic, only contract for short burst
