Tropmyosin and Troponin are called the regulatory proteins in muscle contraction. Describe the myofibril organization and specific structural and functional role of these two proteins in muscle contraction-relaxation cycle.
For the following five events, which is the correct sequence that describes the excitation and contraction of a skeletal muscle fiber? 1. Tropomyosin shifts, exposing the myosin-binding sites on actin. 2. Calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and binds to the troponin complex. 3. An action potential is propagated down the transverse tubules. 4. Cycles of myosin cross-bridge formation and breakdown cause the thin filaments to slide toward the center of the sarcomere. 5. An action potential in a motor neuron causes the axon to release acetylcholine, which triggers an action potential in a muscle fiber.     1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5     3 → 2 → 4 → 1 → 5     2 → 1 → 3 → 5 → 4     5 → 3 → 2 → 1 → 4     4 → 3 → 1 → 2 → 5
Which of the following is NOT true of fast oxidative skeletal muscle fibers? O All of the above describe fast oxidative muscle fibers There muscle fibers are surrounded by a high number of capillaries There muscle fibers contain many mitochondria There fibers can be converted to slow oxidative fibers during periods of no training There is a high myoglobin content in these types of fibers
