GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!
Epimysium
Dense irregular connective tissue, surrounds the whole muscle, outermost layer
Troponin
Regulatory protein that turn contraction on and off
Conductivity
Ability to propagate electrical signals over membranes
Titin
Structural protein; anchors thick filament to M line and Z disc
Endomysium
Separates individual muscle cells
Sarcoplasm
The muscle cell cytoplasm and contains large amounts of glycogen
Excitability
Respond to chemicals released from nerve cells
Sarcoplasmic reticulum
Encircles each myofibril, stores calcium ions in relaxed muscles
Sarcolemma
The plasma membrane of the cell
Troponin, tropomyosin, Actin
Thin filaments are made up of
Smooth
Which type of muscle tissue is found in your GI tract?
Myomesium
Connects adjacent thick filaments to one another
Sarcoplasmic reticulum
System of tubular sacs similar to smooth ER in nonmuscle cells
cardiac, smooth, skeletal
What are the types of muscle cells
Sarcoplasmic reticulum
Stores Calcium in a relaxed muscle
Myosin
Functions as a motor protein, push or pull various cellular structures to achieve movement
Nebulin
Helps to align the thin filaments in the sarcomere.
Thermogenesis
Involuntary contractions of skeletal muscles; heat generation
Cardiac
Which type of muscle tissue is only found in the heart?
Elasticity
Property allowing muscle tissue to return to its original shape
Contractility
Property allowing muscle to shorten forcefully when stimulated by an action potential
Perimysium
Dense irregular connective tissue, surround bundles of 10-100 muscle cells
Extensibility
Ability to be stretched without damaging the tissue
Dystrophin
Helps transmit the tension generated by the sarcomeres to the tendons

what type of muscle tissue is this
sarcolemma
what is the plasma membrane of the cell
sarcoplasm
what is the muscle cell cytoplasm and contains a large amount of glycogen for energy production (synthesis of atp) and myoglobin for oxygen storage
sarcoplasmic reticulum
what is a system of tubular sacs siilar to smooth ER in nonmuscle cells that stores CA+2 in a relaxed mode
myosin
functions as a motor protein, push or pull various cellular structures to achieve movement by converting chem energy in ATP to the mechanical energy of motion
Slow Oxidative fibers (slow twitch)
least powerful type of muscle fiber, red, generate ATP by aerobic cellular respiration, resistant to fatigue, prolonged contractions for long term activities
muscle tone
involuntary contraction of a small number of motor units (alternately active and inactive in a constantly shifting pattern). Keeps muscle firm even though relaxed and does not produce movement
muscle tone
small amount of tension in the muscle due to weak involuntary contracts of its motor units at rest. Essential for blood pressure maintenance
hypotonia
decreased or lost muscle tone (muscles are flacid, loose, and affected limbs are hyperextended)
hypertonia
increase in muscle tone (increased stiffness associated with tendon reflexes)
motor recruitment
increase in the number of active motor units. Prevents fatigue and helps provide smooth muscle contraction.
fire asynchronously, some active some relaxed, delays muscle fatigue so contraction can be sustained
smaller units = smaller contractments
oxygen debt (EPOC)
refers to added oxygen taken into body after exercise.
extra oxygen: 1. converts lactic acid back to glycogen in the liver 2. re-synthesize creatine phosphate and ATP in muscle fibers 3. replace oxygen removed from myoglobin
