New cards

myosin head binds to ATP

cross bridge formation

2
New cards

ATP becomes hydrolized

cross bridge formation

3
New cards

ATP turns into ADP and phosphate group

cross bridge formation

4
New cards

ADP and phosphate groups stays on myosin head

cross bridge formation

5
New cards

allows myosin head to bind to actin

cross bridge formation

6
New cards

cross bridge formation:

  • myosin head binds to…

ATP

7
New cards

cross bridge formation:

  • ATP becomes …

hydrolized

8
New cards

cross bridge formation:

  • ATP turns into….

ADP and phosphate group

9
New cards

cross bridge formation:

  • ultimately allows myosin head to bind to…

power stroke

11
New cards

causes head to bend backwards motion

power stroke

12
New cards

drags thin filaments towards center of sarcomere

power stroke

13
New cards

power stroke:

  • myosin head …

releases phosphate group and ADP

14
New cards

power stroke:

power stroke:

  • drags….

thin filaments towwards center of sarcomere

16
New cards

new ATP binds to myosin head

bridge detachment

17
New cards

head detaches from actin

bridge detachment

18
New cards

without ATP myosin head doesnt know if they can detach from actin

bridge detachment

19
New cards

bridge detachment:

  • New ATP binds to…

myosin head

20
New cards

bridge detachment:

  • allows head to …

detach from actin

21
New cards

bridge detachment:

  • without ATP…

myosin head doesnt know if it can detach from actin or not
