An anchoring protein for actin, coextend with actin and appears to play a regulatory role in mediating actin and myosin interactions. |
Connective tissue sheath surrounding each fasciculus |
A plasma membrane surrounding individual muscle fibers. |
The motor units within a given muscle appear to be ranked. |
The process by which the tension of a given motor unit can vary from that of a twitch to that of tetanus by increasing the frequency of stimulation of that motor unit. |
Composed of the plasmalemma and the basement membrane. |
The basic funtional unit of a myofibril and the basic contractile unit of muscle. |
A gelatin-like substance that fills the spaces between and within the myofibrils. |
A longitudinal network of tubules found within the muscle fiber. |
Located between the plasmalemma and the basement membrane. Involved in growth development of skeletal muscle and muscle's adaptation to injury, immobilization, and training. |
A mechanism that may partially explain the principle of orderly recruitment. |
When the myosin cross-bridges are activated they bind with actin, resulting in a conformational change in the cross-bridge, which causes the myosin head to tilt and to drag the thin filament toward the center of the sarcomere. |
Muscles acting without moving. Happens when the muscle generates force but its length remains static (unchanged). |
A series of three stimuli in rapid sequence, prior to complete relaxation from the first stimulus, can elicit an even greater increase in for or tension. |
A state of continued stimulation at higher frequencies. |
Stabilizes the myosin filaments along their longitudinal axis. They are filaments that extend from the Z-disk to the M-line. |
Extensions of the plasmalemma that pass laterally through the muscle fiber. Allowing nerve impulses received by the plasmalemma to be transmitted rapidly to individual myofibrils. |
One of Three Protein molecules that make each actin filament. |
One of Three Protein molecules that make each actin filament. |
The smallest contractile response of a muscle fiber or a motor unit to a single electrical stimulus. |
Muscle fiber that takes 110 ms to reach peak tension in stimulation. |
Muscle fiber that takes 50 ms to reach peak tension in stimulation. |
What thinner filaments are composed primarily of. |
Arrives at the a-motor neuron's dendrites, specialized receptors on the neuron's cell body. |
Located on the myosin head, splits the ATP to yield ADP, inorganic phosphate, and energy. |
Molecule that binds with myosin for muscle contraction to occur because ATP supplies needed energy. |
When there is joint movement is produced, concentric contractions are considered dynamic. |
The action of muscles exerting force even while lengthening. |
A sheath of connective tissue that covers each muscle fiber. |
The complex sequence of events that triggers a muscle fiber to contract. |
Small bundles of fibers wrapped in a connective tissue sheath. |
A single a-motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it directly signals are collectively a motor unit. |
each fiber is a muscle cell that are multinucleated. |
Skeletal muscles and the bones of the skeleton make up this system |
Small fibers made up of the basic contractile elements of skeletal muscle- the sarcomeres. |
What the thicker filaments are made of primarily. |
