Q

muscle fiber

A

long thin shaped cells

19
Q

sarcolemma

A

plasma membrane of muscle fiber

20
Q

sarcoplasm

A

cytoplasm of muscle fiber

21
Q

transverse tubules

A

hollow inward extensions of sarcolemma surrounding myofibrils, filled ecf

22
Q

sarcoplasmic reticulum

A

specialized smooth endoplasmic reticulum of a muscle fiber storing calcium ions

23
Q

terminal cisternae

A

enlarged regions of sacroplasmic reticulum where it contatcs t tubules

24
Q

triad

A

a t tubule and 2 adjascent terminal cisternae in fiber

25
myofibril
long, cylinder organelle composed of muscle proteins
26
myofillament
muscle proteins that make up myofibril in fiber
27
sarcomere
basic muscle fiber unit
28
actin
thin filament consisting of many subunits, bind to myosin head to make filament
29
myosin
club shaped protein in fiber, cells are motille
30
troponin
2nd regulatory protein, holds tropomyosin in place
31
tropomyosin
long ropelike regulatory protein, covers active sites
32
titin
thinnest elastin fillament, stabilizes myofibril structure
33
I band
light region, thin, allows light to pass through
34
z line (disc)
dark line in I band, anchor, attachment point
35
a band
darker , block light , appear darker
36
h zone
slightly lighter middle
37
m line
dark line running through middle
38
zone of overlap
overlapping filaments, tension generated during muscle contraction
39
neuromuscular junction
where neuron communicates with fiber
40
axon terminal
knoblike structure at end of axon containing synaptic vessels with neurotransmitters
41
neurotransmitter/ach
chemical messenger produced by neurons communicating with target cells
42
synaptic cleft
small space between axon terminal of presynaptic neuron and target cell
43
motor end plate
contains receptors for ach
44
synaptic vesicle
mebrane enclosed in axon containing transmitters
