Question
Answer
golgi tendon organ   organ of the sensory division which detects the strain of the muscle/tendon complex thereby causing muscle actions to reduce injury  
🗑
muscle spindle   specialized muscle fibers whose function is to monitor the length of the muscle and along with sensory nerve ending communicate to the CNS to maintain the desired muscle length  
🗑
tropomyosin   tube shaped protein which twists around the actin strand which hides the active sites during muscle relaxation  
🗑

sarcoplasmic reticulum   calcium storage area which wraps around myofibrils  
🗑
myosin cross-bridge   the two-headed portion of myosin filament with attachment sites for actin and ATP  
🗑
muscle fiber   another name for a muscle cell whose structure contains nucleus, mitocondria, sacroplasm and myofibril. Individual muscle cell whose size ranges from 10-80um is diameter and range up to 12cm long.  
🗑
fast-twitch (FT) fiber - type 2 -   a type of muscle fiber which is characterized by lower peak tension time and highest power (sprinter)  
🗑
