Statements TRUE FALSE Hematopoiesis would most likely take place in the hyoid bone. A muscle triad consists of sarcoplasmic reticulum, a T tubule, and a terminal cisternum. Actin is found only in the striated fibers of cardiac and skeletal muscles. A sarcomere is the region of a myofibril that lies between two consecutive Z lines. Slow twitch muscle fibers are more resistant to fatigue than other muscle fiber types. Thin myofilaments are primarily composed of myosin proteins. An action potential in a muscle fiber is initiated by stimulation across the neuromuscular junction.arrow_forward

- The changes related to muscle mobility are the most obvious in older adult. There can be measurable differences in muscle strength, endurance, range of motion, coordination, elasticity, and flexibility of connective tissue. Regular exercise is necessary to prevent a decrease in muscle strength. Exercise helps to strengthen muscles and keeps joints, tendons, and ligaments more flexible, allowing for a more active lifestyle. Please research and describe some activities you could recommend to an elderly patient to stay active to help them maintain muscle massarrow_forwardName one toxic myopathy and explain why it develops.arrow_forwardexplain the basis of muscle fatigue and soreness;arrow_forward
