|
Term
|
Definition
Contractile unit/ cell membrane of muscle cell/ Parts of the sarcomere include: actin, myosin, myosin heads, regulatory protein ( troponin) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1) action potential moves along the sarcolemma ca2+ ions are released from the sacrocoplasmic reticulum 2) calcium ions bind to troponin/regulatory proteins that protect myosin binding sites) and cause them to change shape and position. 3) the movement of these regulatory proteins exposes myosin binding sites 4) cross bridges (myosin heads) attach to exposed myosin binding sites on the filaments 5) ATP provides energy- as cross bridges bind, heads snap towards center of sarcomere, pulling the thin filamens along 6) ATP provides energy to release the myosin heads. 7) myosin heads reattach to next binding site- process continues and thin filaments move closer together |
|
|
Term
Sliding filament theory 2 |
|
Definition
When the action potential ends, calcium ions are reabsorbed into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and regulatory proteins resume original position, preventing myosin binding |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1) action potentials arriving at the presynaptic terminal causensynaptic vesicles to release neurotransmitter molecules, such as ACh 2) neurotransmitter molecules diffuse from the presynaptic cleft 3) neurotransmitter molecules combine with their receptors and cause Na channels to open. Na+ diffuses into the cell and cause depolarization. If depolarization reaches threshold, an action potential is produced in the posynaptic cell |
