🗑
Cytoplasm of a skeletal muscle fiber   Sarcoplasm  
🗑
Series of membranous channels (modified ER) that surround each myofibril   Sarcoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
Rod-like contractile elements within a muscle fiber   Myofibril  
🗑
Functional unit of a skeletal muscle fiber   Sarcomere  
🗑
Area of the sarcomere with overlapping thick and thin filaments   A band  
🗑
Area of the sarcomere containing only thin filaments   I band  
🗑
Area in the center of the A band containing only thick filaments   H band  
🗑
Cross-bridges   Myosin molecules  
🗑
Contains vesicles filled with acetylcholine   Synaptic knob  
🗑
Space between the neuron and the muscle   Synaptic cleft  
🗑
Contains receptors for acetylcholine   Motor end plate  
🗑
Type of contraction represented by a single stimulus/contraction/relaxation sequence   Twitch  
🗑
A muscle producing peak tensions with visible relaxation during rapid cycles of contraction and relaxation   Incomplete tetanus  
🗑
A muscle that is stimulated so frequently that the relaxation phase is completely eliminated   Complete tetanus  
🗑
When a muscle is stimulated repeatedly for several seconds with a constant stimulus, the amount of tensions gradually increases to a maximum   Wave summation  
🗑
Activities best suited for slow oxidative fibers   Endurance-type activities  
🗑
Activities best suited for fast oxidative fibers   400M or 800M sprint  
🗑
Activities best suited for fast glycolytic fibers   Short-term intense movements  
🗑
Single, very long cylindrical, multinucleate cells with striations   Skeletal muscle fibers  
🗑
Branching chains of cells; uni- or binucleate striations; intercalated discs   Cardiac muscle cells  
🗑
Single, fusion, uninucleated; no striations   Smooth muscle cells  
🗑
Ability to receive and respond to a stimulus   Excitability  
🗑
Ability to shorten forcibly when adequately stimulated   Contractility  
🗑
Ability to be stretched or extended   Extensibility  
🗑
Ability of a muscle to resume its resting length after being stretched   Elasticity  
🗑
Propagation of an electrical current along the sarcolemma   Action potential  
🗑
The initial polarized state   Resting potential  
🗑
Restoration of membrane potential to resting potential   Repolarization  
🗑
The time when fiber cannot stimulated until repolarization is complete   Refractory period  
🗑
Neurotransmitter released into the neuromuscular junction   Acetylcholine  
🗑
Enzyme released into neuromuscular junction to break down acetylcholine   Acetylcholinesterase  
🗑
Released by terminal cisternae into the sarcoplasm to bind with troponin   Ca2+  
🗑
Protein found in SR that binds calcium   Calsequestrin  
🗑
Protein that works alternately with calsequestrin   Calmodulin  
🗑
Electrical event occurring only at neuromuscular junction   End plate potential  
🗑
Electrical event spreading in all directions from neuromuscular junction across the sarcolemma   Action potential  
🗑

🗑
Outside positive relative to the inside   Electrical conditions of a resting sarcolemma  
🗑
Production of an end plate potential at the motor end plate and consequent depolarization of adjacent areas   Depolarization and generation of action potential  
🗑
Increased positive charge inside sarcolemma changes permeability of adjacent areas, opening voltage-regulated Na+ channels   Propagation of the action potential  
🗑
Change in sarcolemma after the wave of depolarization; Na+ channels close and K+ channels open, allowing K+ to create a positive charge outside the membrane   Repolarization  
🗑
Pulling on something to change its position   Producing movement  
🗑
Development of tension to prevent movement as in keeping the vertebral column upright.   Maintaining posture  
🗑

🗑
Binds Ca2+ and starts the contraction cycle   Troponin  
🗑
