What would you expect to happen to a resting skeletal muscle if the sarcolemma suddenly became very permeable to calcium ions?
Do both skeletal and cardiac muscle have a striated appearance? Explain?
After death, a person no longer makes ATP, and calcium stored in the specialized endoplasmic reticulum of muscle fibers diffuses down its concentration gradient into the muscle cytoplasm. The result is rigor mortis—an unbreakable state of muscle contraction. Explain why the contraction occurs and why it is irreversible.
