Skeletal muscle cell(key terms: striated, contracting proteins, contractions, nucleus location)
The function (or job) of a muscle cell is:
One of the primary characteristics of all muscle tissue is contractility, the ability to shorten
(contract) and lengthen (relax). You've identified the various components of a myofibril above.
Now, use the table below to indicate what occurs to each band, line, or zone when the muscle
contracts vs. relaxes.
What occurs to this region / structure during contraction/relaxation?
Region / Structure
A-Band
H-Band
I-Band
M-Line
Z-Line
Zone of Overlap
Sarcomere
No change
Shortens
Lengthens
Muscle Contraction
Muscle Relaxation
Describe the process of skeletal muscle contraction, beginning with an action potential in a motor neuron and ending with the relaxation of the muscle. Your answer should include the following words: neuromuscular junction, T tubule, sarcoplasmic reticulum, calcium, thin filaments, binding sites, thick filaments, sarcomere, Z disc, and active transport.

- Compare and contrast the connective tissue types of loose, cartilage, dense, bone, and blood. Explain, in detail, the process of a muscle contraction at a microscopic level (including the sliding filament model). Please make sure responses are in your own words as possible as you can. Thanks for the help.arrow_forwardWhich of the following are aspects of the structure of skeletal muscle? Select all that apply. The muscle fibers are parallel to one another and have a striated appearance. They have more mitochondria than other types of muscle cells. Each fiber contains many units of contraction and protein filaments. Cells are branched or unbranched with single nuclei. It consists of cylindrical cells called muscle fibers that have multiple nuclei.arrow_forwardAfter death, a person no longer makes ATP, and calcium stored in the specialized endoplasmic reticulum of muscle fibers diffuses down its concentration gradient into the muscle cytoplasm. The result is rigor mortis—an unbreakable state of muscle contraction. Explain why the contraction occurs and why it is irreversible.arrow_forward
- Fill in the appropriate type(s) of muscle: Contracts rhythmically and spontaneously:_______ ;is controlled voluntarily:________ ; contains orderly arrangements of fibrous proteins, giving a striped appearance:_________ ; is under involuntary control:________; is found in the walls of the digestive tract:_______; moves the skeleton:________ .arrow_forwardIn an isometric contraction, how can the muscle stay the same length when the muscle is contracting? Can choose more than one - The muscle is not able to generate more (or the same amount) force than the load, preventing shortening of the muscle. - Calcium stops entering the sarcoplasm when the desired length is reached. - Elastic elements of the muscle stretch in response to the contraction of the muscle, so that the muscle stays the same size despite shortening sarcomeres. - The myosin heads detach from actin when they reach the desired length.arrow_forwardYou can choose one or more than one option About human skeletal muscle contraction, what are the correct statements? PHYSIOLOGY basi:. A muscle fiber is made by the parallel apposition of sarcomers. Generation of force relies on the formation of cross-bridges between actin and myosin filaments. In the process of contraction, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is required both to drive the actin-myosin association-dissociation cycle and to recycle calcium back to the endoplasmic reticulum. Each muscle fiber is innervated by one neuron only tubules are plasma membrane imaginations of the sarcolemma that allow excitation-contraction coupling Arginase is an enzyme that : BIOCHEMISTRY advanced is expressed in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes shows two isoenzymes in mammals. found in the liver and other tissues catalyzes the formation of urea and ornithine from arginine. induces hyperammonemia when it is overexpressed is inhibited by basic amino acids such as lysine and ornithine.…arrow_forward

An action potential is created and moves down T-tubules 3. Calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum 4.
