PA - Skeletal Muscle Adaptations to regular PA

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
muscle fibers are regulated in subgroups activated by a single motor neuron called a :   motor unit  
🗑
what is a neuromuscular junction?   where nerve meets the muscle ending  
🗑
if the nerve ending is cut, what will happen?   muscle won't contract  
🗑
influx of sodium (Na+) is called   depolarization  
🗑
efflux of potassium (K+) is called   repolarization  
🗑
impulse from motor neuron results in...   release of ACh into the neuromuscular junction  
🗑
why isn't ACh a hormone?   b/c its released on site & only effects neuromuscular junction  
🗑
after ACh is released..what happens?   sodium comes in  
🗑
after the sodium comes in then...   the action potential travels and releases calcium  
🗑
after calcium is released then it...   binds to troponion & form cross bridges  
🗑
where is calcium stored?   sarcoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
thin filament is known as   actin  
🗑
myosin   thick filament  
🗑
__ and __ work together so muscle can contract   actin & myosin  
🗑
as long as calcium is involved...   you have muscle contraction  
🗑
muscle fibers relax when...   no more calcium is being released  
🗑
after cross bridges are form. troponin moves troporhysin & exposes __   actin  
🗑
after actin gets exposed so does everything else. the last step is __   calcium returns to SR  
🗑
