- Transmission of electrical signals in nerve and muscle cell is mediated by opening and closing of: 1) ion channels in the nuclear envelope 2) ion channels in the plasma membrane 3) the electron transport chain 4) the sodium potassium ATPase in the plasma membranearrow_forwardWhy is adenosine triphosphate (ATP) used for muscle contraction?arrow_forwardA few hours after the death of an animal, the corpse will stiffen as a result of continued contraction of muscle tissue (this state is called rigor mortis). This phenomenon is the result of the loss of ATP production in muscle tissue. (a) Consult Figure 7.48 and describe, in terms of the six-step model of mus- de contraction, how a lack of ATP in sarcomeres would result in rigor mortis. (b) The Ca* transporter in sarcomeres that keeps the [Ca*)-10-7 M requires ATP to drive transport of Ca* ions across the membrane of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. How would a loss of this Ca* transport func- tion result in the initiation of rigor mortis? (c) Rigor mortis is maximal at - 12 hrs after death, and by 72 hrs is no longer observed. Propose an explanation for the disappearance of rigor mortis after 12 hrs.arrow_forward

- If you were to watch muscle tissue contract: Under a light microscope, would you see the muscle fibers get narrower, or the striations get thinner? Explain. At the EM level, focusing on one sarcomere, you would be able to see a region of thick filaments overlapping two regions of thin filaments. Use the structure of the thick filaments to explain how ONE region of thick filaments is able to pull in microfilament in two opposite directions (both toward the center of the sarcomere).arrow_forwardWhy is the movement of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasm into the sarcoplasmic reticulum classified as active transport?arrow_forwardWhat key ATPase is important for maintaining this positive (outside) and negative (inside) transmembrane potential?arrow_forward
