🗑
Each sarcomere extends from one ____________ to another __________. Each _______________ is an attachment site for _____________.   show
🗑
What gives a sarcomere its banded appearance?   show
🗑
show I band; actin  
🗑
The ____________ extends the length of the myosin. It is the darker central region in each sarcomere.   show
🗑
What's in the center of each sarcomere? What does it consist of?   show
🗑
What is the dark staining band in the center of the sarcomere?   show
🗑

🗑
Motor neurons   show
🗑
show synapse; formed by an enlarged nerve terminal resting in an identation of the muscle cell membrane  
🗑

🗑
Enlarged nerve terminal   show
🗑
show the sliding of actin myofilaments past myosin myofilaments during sontraction; H and I bands shorten, but A bands do not change in length  
🗑
Muscle twitch   show
🗑
Threshold   show
🗑
Lag phase   show
🗑
show where the muscle remains contracted without relaxing  
🗑
show recruitment

🗑
show ADP plus phosphate  
🗑
show adenosine triphosphate  
🗑

🗑
show with oxygen (more efficient)  
🗑
show when ATP is used during muscle contraction faster than it can be produced  
🗑
isometric   show
🗑
show refers to constant tension produced by muscles of the body for long periods of time. Keeps head up and back straight  
🗑
show contract quickly and fatigue quickly. Well adapted to perform anaerobic metabolism. Ex. white meat of a chicken's breast  
🗑
show contact more slowly and are more resistant to fatigue. They are better suited for aerobic metabolism. Ex, dark meat of a duck's breast or the legs of a chicken
