Sequence of Events for Muscle Contraction
Practice Worksheet
See if you can place the events that occur during muscle contraction and relaxation in their proper order. Insert numbers in the paces provided to order the events in the proper sequence.
_____ A. An electrical impulse travels over the sarcolemma and inward along the T-tubules, causing sacs in the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release calcium.
____ B. The release of ACh stops and acetylcholinesterase breaks down any remaining ACh.
_____ C. Troponin and tropomyosin prevent the myosin heads from grasping the thin filament, and the muscle fiber relaxes.
_____ D. An electrical impulse causes small vesicles at the end of a motor neuron to release the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh).
_____ E. Calcium binds with the troponin on the actin filament, exposing attachment points.
_____ F. ACh diffuses across the synaptic cleft, where it stimulates receptors in the…
Fatigue is not well understood. Some factors that have been proposed to explain the fall in force duringfatigue include: changes in the 'sense of effort', loss of 'central drive', failure of neuromuscular propagation, reduction in calcium release in excitation- contraction coupling, metabolic changes in the muscle, and reduction in muscle blood flow owing to compression of blood vessels.
1. Do your experiments help to decide which factors are important?

Real life problem. You are a trainer and are called on to the field where a player is down with a severe cramp of his right hamstring (biceps femoris) muscle. You know that cramps are caused by over-active motor nerve activity to the muscle. Your associates want to stretch the cramping hamstring, but you say, “No!
