---|---|---|---|---|---|
Muscle Cell is at rest, the SR are pumping calcium ions into sacs | Step 1
🗑
|
||||
The motor neuron signals the release of acetylcholine (ACH) into the neuromuscular junction (synaptic cleft) | Step 2
🗑
|
||||
ACh stimulates the receptors on the sarcolemma and initiates the electrical impulse | Step 3
🗑
|
||||
The nerve impulse travels along the sarcolemma and down the T-tubules | Step 4
🗑
|
||||
The impulse triggers the release of calcium into the sarcoplasm | Step 5
🗑
|
||||
Calcium binds to troponin (which is the protein that holds the protein tropmyosin in place over activ=ns binding site) | Step 6
🗑
|
||||
Tropomyosin shifts exposing the active site on actin | Step 7
🗑
|
||||
The head of myosin (energized by ATP) binds to actin (cross-bridge) abd pulls the thin filament (attach to Zplates of sacromere) past them (power stroke) | Step 8
🗑
|
||||
In the presence of ATP, each myosin head releases actin and then binds to the next active site (muscle fiber shorten/contract as think and thin filaments slide past eachother) | Step 9
🗑
|
||||
The sarcoplasmic reticulum starts actively pumping calcium ions back into the storage sacs. | Step 10
🗑
|
||||
As calcium is removed from troponin, this allows tropomyosin to again block the active sites on actin and the muscle relaxes | Step 11
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
