55
action potential current travels to
motor neurons, connect to specific fibers
56
motor unit

t tubules
sarcoplasmic reticulum
58
sliding filament theory: when troponin is moved due to calcium activity, ___ can attach to ___ forming a cross bridge via its myosin head
myosin, actin
59
ATP is split at the ____ attachment site, which releases energy and allows the ___ head to pull the ___ to shorten/contract the muscle fiber
myosin-actin
myosin
actin
60
principle that says a muscle fiber is either in a state of producing max tension or not producing any tension
all or none principle
61
two types of motor unit firing patterns
synchronized, asynchronous
62
synchronized firing
employed during high-output demands involving fast-twitch fibers and warranting significant fiber recruitment
63
employed during endurance activities involving slow-twitch fibers which conserve motor unit potential, allowing prolonged work
asynchronous firing
64
agonist-antagonist relationships help facilitate smooth
force production
65
agonist-antagonist relationship
one muscle contracts while the muscle on the opposite side of the joint relaxes
66
agonist
muscle that contracts/shortens during a given exercise
67
antagonist
muscle that relaxes and lengthens during a given exercise to accommodate contraction of the agonist
68
tension remains constant while joint angles change
isotonic
69
concentric
occurs during the acceleration phase of a lift as the muscle shortens
70
eccentric
occurs during the deceleration phase of a lift as the muscle lengthens
71
isometric
tension is created but no joint angle changes
72
isokinetic
involves a constant speed of movement
73
