Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The muscle is a soft tissue that works to build power and movement. Muscle cells produce actin and myosin protein filaments that move through each other through a contraction that alters the cell's length and shape. Calcium ions build interactions between myosin and actin proteins.

When we recruit more motor units, what is happening at the organ/cell/molecular level? more myofibrils within a muscle cell are activated more muscle cells are excited the rate of crossbridge cycling is increased the number of myosin heads bound to actin within a muscle cell is increased more Ca++ is released into the cyoplasm of the muscle cellarrow_forward
- For the skeletal muscle, hydrolyzation of ATP: Group of answer choices At the myosin head gives rise to the generation of power stroke. At the actin G-molecule gives rise to the generation of power stroke. At the myosin head give rise to the rotation of myosin head to the "cocked back" position. At the actin G-molecule give rise to the rotation of myosin head to the "cocked back" position.arrow_forwardSkeletal muscle will be released in its contracted (rigor) state when: Group of answer choices ATP is hydrolyzed into forming ADP and inorganic phosphate. ATP binds to the myosin head. ADP is dissociated from the myosin head. ATP binds to the actin G-molecule.arrow_forwardIn the process of muscle contraction, which of the following steps immediately comes after the propagation of an action potential down the t-tubules of a myofiber? sliding of tropomyosin causing exposure of actin binding of myosin head to actin's active site release of calcium from the terminal cisternae binding of acetylcholine to its receptor influx of sodium at the sarcolemmaarrow_forward
- In a skeletal muscle if calcium levels in the cytosol increase, as calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR,) how would this affect the position of the actin and myosin filaments? Group of answer choices Calcium released from the SR binds to calmodulin. Calmodulin activates myosin light chain kinase, causing cross bridge formation. Calcium released from the SR binds to troponin, moving tropomyosin and allowing for cross bridge formation. Calcium released from the SR binds to troponin, moving tropomyosin and inhibiting cross bridge formation. Calcium released from the SR binds to troponin, causing actin to detach from myosin. pick one answerarrow_forwardOrder the events leading to muscle contraction. Ca ions bind to troponin myosin binds to actin Nerve cell releases acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction troponin pulls tropomyosin, exposing the mysoin binding site ATP causing myosin to move (pull) actin toward the center of the cell the sarcolemma membrane depolarizes and triggers the sarcoplamic reticulum to release Ca ionsarrow_forwardWhich of the following correctly states the importance of an action potential to muscle contration? The SR will only release Ca2+ if it has been electrically stimulated. Sarcomeres require a negative electrical charge to start sliding. Actin and myosin must be electrically charged to create a cross-bridge. ATP cannot be split into ADP and Pi without an action potential.arrow_forward
- Indicate which of the following are true. Chronically shortened muscles will lose sarcomeres in series in order to maintain ideal amounts of myofilament overlap. Contractile force is proportional to the length of a muscle. Muscle organ contraction is all or nothing. Muscle cells are surrounded by an endomysium. Actin is the thick filament and Z-lines are where the cross-bridges zig-zag to adjacent actin filaments. Muscles with fewer motor units are weaker, i.e., capable of less force. A nerve impulse, calcium, and ATP are necessary for muscle contraction. Tendons attach bones to bones and help to limit the range of motion at joints. Muscle tissue is very dynamic and will respond to chronic stress by becoming stronger (making more myofilaments), chronic contraction by becoming shorter (losing sarcomeres in series), and stretching by becoming longer (adding sarcomeres in series). Myofilaments are actually long strands of proteins.arrow_forwardWhich of the following step(s) about the excitation of skeletal muscle is/are incorrect? 1. Acetylcholine is released and binds to motor end plate receptors 2. An action potential is created and moves down T-tubules 3. Calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum 4. Calcium ions bind to tropomyosin to shift troponin off the binding sites for cross-bridging 5. Myosin forms cross-bridges and binds with actin to pull it towards middle of sarcomerearrow_forwardWhich of the following does not occur during the excitation contraction coupling of skeletal muscle? Opening of ryanodine receptor calcium channels Calcium binding to troponin Tropomyosin shifting away from myosin binding sites on the actin An end plate potentialarrow_forward
