Term
| Sliding filament model: list steps of skeletal muscle contraction |
|
Definition
| 1. Motor neuron releases acetylocholine at neuromuscular junction 2. calcium ions are released out of the sarcoplasmic reticulum into muscle cell body 3. calcium ions bind to troponin and tropomyosin, uncovering active sites on actin 4. mysoin heads form bridges on and with active sites on actin 5. ATP broken down for energy 6. actin pulled over myosin as heads move like paddles |
|
|
Term
| Sliding Filament Model: List steps of skeletal muschle relaxation |
