Muscles

Teacher: LeShawn Palmer
Horizontales
ability to forcibly shorten
Thick myofilaments (has cross bridges)
Surrounds fibers(a cell which is a bunch of parallel myofibrils)
the fibers plasma membrane
Middle region where there is only myosin
Is the specific voltage that any cell has across it's plasma membrane during its resting state
A tubular network (analogous to the endoplasmic reticulum) found inside a fiber...it surrounds and contacts all the individual myofibrils
Functions: Movement, posture, heat
Refers to a muscle receiving a second threshold stimulus before it has relaxed, therefor creating a greater second stimulus as added to the first
ability to receive and respond to a stimulus (neural or hormonal)
Thin myofilament made mostly of protein ( attached to z-line )
A chain of sarcomeres made of parallel myofilaments
voluntary/striated involved in movement and posture
Verticales
Outermost dense connective tissue wrapping. It binds muscle into functional groups (like the biceps brachii) while separating them from each other
A muscle protein that binds with and stores oxygen
High in myoglobin (thus stores oxygen)
Is the force produced by a muscle when it contracts
Region where there is only actin and the z-line
the fibers cytoplasm
One in which the tension develops but resistance is too great and contraction is minimal
Run transversely through a fiber connecting the sarcolemma and the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Muscle contraction where the tension is sufficient to move the load
Low in myoglobin
The ends where actin is attached
ability to return to original length after contracting or being stretched
is the force exerted on a muscle due to weight
Uses full aerobic pathways(Krebs/electron transport) thus requires lots of oxygen and are red and slower to fatigue
A muscle cell
