Practice Worksheet B
Sequence of muscle contraction
Number the following statements in their proper sequence to describe the contraction mechanism in a skeletal muscle cell.
_____ A. Acetylcholine is released into the neuromuscular junction by the axonal terminal.
_____ B. The action potential, carried deep into the cell, causes the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release calcium ions.
____ C. The muscle cell relaxes and lengthens.
_____ D. Acetylcholine diffuses across the neuromuscular junction and binds to receptors on the sarcolemma.
____ E. The calcium ion concentration at the myofilaments increases; the myofilaments slide past one another, and the cell shortens.
_____ F. Depolarization occurs, and the action potential is generated.
_____ G. As calcium is actively reabsorbed into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, its concentration at the myofilaments decreases.

Speculate about what this ratio difference means in terms of muscle activity potential and a possible evolutionary significance of this difference. 4. Fleas can jump up to 40 times their body length. However, calculation on the biomechanics of the leg extensor muscles, do not provide enough force to account for such jumps. If the flea's ability to jump high is not reliant upon muscle strength, how else could the leg structure be modified to assist in the flea jumping mechanism? How would you test your idea?
