Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR)
|
|
Definition
In the Muscle Fiber
They are canals wrapped around the myfibril
They hold calcium Ions which are released to make the muscle contract |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
This is what really contracts in a muscle cell. There are many of these that contract.
they have myofilaments which are actin, troponin, tropomyosin,and myosin |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| These are the thin fiaments which the myosin grab on to when it is exposed. |
|
|
Term

consist neuron muscle fiber it innervates (to communicate nervous energy to: stimulate though nerves)
This is where the muscle gets a message from the brain to contract or relax. it also involves the neuromuscular junction. |
