Question
Answer
describe the size of muscle fibres   larger than other cells and can be length of entire muscle  
🗑
name structures of muscle fibre   sacrolemma transverse (T) tubules sacroplasmic recticulum myofibrils sacromeres  
🗑
muscle fibre plasma membrane?   sacrolemma  
🗑
sacrolemma?   muscle fibre plasma membrane  
🗑
what does the sacrolemma surround?   sacroplasm  
🗑
sacrolemma is studded with?   T tubules  
🗑
T tubules connect what?   sacrolemma to contractile parts of cell  
🗑
T tubules contain what?   extracellular fluid  
🗑
T tubules are important for what?   coordinated contraction of entire cell  
🗑
what are myofibrils made of?   contractile myofilaments of actin and myosin  
🗑
what are myofibrils surrounded by   T tubules and sacroplasmic recticulum  
🗑
what do myofibrils connect to   sacrolemma at both ends of muscle fibre so contraction shortens whole cell  
🗑
where do glycogen granules and mitochondria sit?   sacroplasm adjacent to myofibrils to provide ATP for contraction  
🗑
why do glycogen granules and mitochondria sit in the sacroplasm adjacent to myofibrils   to provide ATP for contraction  
🗑
what sits in the sacroplasm adjacent to myofibrils to provide ATP for contraction   mitochondria and glycogen grandules  
🗑
TC?   terminal cisternae  
🗑
TC contain high conc of?   Ca2+  
🗑
why is a high conc of Ca2+ needed in TC?   for contraction  
🗑
triad?   2x TCs and a T tubule  
🗑
2x TCs and T tubule?   triad  
🗑
sacroplasmic recticulum is important why?   Ca2+ prevented from being pumped out the cell?  
🗑
sacromeres?   repeating unit of myofibrils  
🗑
alternating patterns of light and dark are created by what in sacromeres?   density differences  
🗑
alternating patters of what are creates by density differences in sacromeres?   light and dark  
🗑


   

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.
