The third, innermost layer

17
Q

(“Within
the muscle”)

18
Q

surrounds and reinforces every
muscle fiber.

19
Q

_____ can allow proteins to bind or unbind with other stuff

A

Changing shapes

20
Q

gives
skeletal and cardiac muscle tissues that
STRIATED or STRIPED, appearance.

A

repeating pattern of overlapping
filaments in lots of sarcomeres

21
Q

are also players in
smooth and cardiac tissue, though the
control and organization of the filaments
and fibers is different.

A

ACTIN and MYOSIN

22
Q

describes
how during contraction the two ends of a
sarcomere come closer and the thin
filaments slide past the thick ones so actin
and myosin overlap more.

A

The sliding filament of muscle

23
Q

Is a king of molecular currency

24
Q

transmits AP deeply into the muscle fiber
to the vicinity of all separate myofibril.
- cause release of Ca ions in the immediate
vicinity of all the myofibrils (excitation-
contraction coupling)

A

ROLE OF T-TUBULES OF SARCOPLASMIC
RETICULUM

25
ROLE OF T-TUBULES OF SARCOPLASMIC RETICULUM
transmits AP deeply into the muscle fiber to the vicinity of all separate myofibril. - cause release of Ca ions in the immediate vicinity of all the myofibrils (excitation- contraction coupling)
26
removes Ca ions from the myofibrillar fluid.
Calcium pump
27
heart has one T- Tubule networks for each sarcomere, located near each end of myosin filament.
Mammalian cardiac
28
protein in the SR for storage of calcium ions
CALCEQUESTRIAN
29
When stuff binds to protein, The proteins _______
Change shape
30
TROPONIN COMPLEX
TROPOMYOSIN
31
Regulates the interaction between active sites on actin and myosin
TROPOMYOSIN
32
has inhibitory effect on muscle contraction but could be inhibited by the presence of calcium ions.
TROPOMYOSIN
