muscle terms

Fibrous motor protein composed of two spiral chains that is associated with I band and is involved in muscle contraction

Condition where no oxygen is present

Molecule involved in metabolic short?term energy storage that cells use to store energy. The molecule contains three phosphates

Protein that have the ability to contract when stimulated and include actin and myosin

Organic compound found in muscles of vertibrates that serves as short term energy for muscle contraction

Connective tissue that surrounds single muscle fiber and contains capillaries that feed the muscle fiber and nerve fiber that control the muscle fiber

Dense irregular connective tissue that surrounds entire muscle and separates the muscle from surrounding tissue

Bundle of muscle fibers that contain between 10 to 100 fibers or cells

Six carbon single sugar and is the most common dietary energy source in farm animals.

Polysaccharide consisting of a large number of glucose units joined together by ? 1-4 bonds, is a long term energy storage in animal cells and is made primarily by the liver and muscles

Series of chemical reactions that split 6 C glucose into 2 3 C pyruvate(s) and generates 6 ATP

Attachment point to bone (or another muscle) that is moved by contraction

Individual muscle cell found in skeletal muscle

Slender striated functional subunits of a muscle fiber composed of bundles of myofilaments and are the contractible units of muscle

Protein filaments composed of contractible proteins and include actin and myosin

Oxygen binding protein found in muscle tissue that contains heme

Fibrous motor protein found in muscle that is associated with the A band that functions in muscle contraction

Attachment point to bone (or another muscle) that is not moved due to contraction (anchor)

Connective tissue that surrounds a bundle (fascicles) of muscle fibers and includes major blood and nerve supply for the bundle

Protein that aid in initiation and termination of contraction process and include tropomyosin and troponin

Voltage that exists across a membrane when at rest due to a difference in ion concentration

Muscle cell membrane

Functional, repeating, contractible unit of myofibril that is composed of myosin and actin

Muscle cell contents

Tubular network surrounding each myofibril and located in conjunction with a T tubule and is involved with the regulation of Ca

Muscle under voluntary control that contains striations and makes up morethan 90% of the muscle we consume from farm animals

Muscle under involuntary control that does not contain striations and is found with in the digestive system, the urinary system and in blood vessels

Protein critical for maintaining the alignment of myofilaments inside myofibril and attach the myofibril to the sarcolemma and include myomesin

Series of tubules that run perpendicular to sarcolemma and into cytoplasm

Series of chemical reactions that convert pyruvate into 3 carbon dioxides and generates 15 ATPs

Dense band of fibrous connective tissue that connects muscle to bone

Protein filament made up of myosin that is involved with the contractile property of muscle

Protein filament made up of actin in association with troponin and tropomyosin that is involved with the contractile property of muscle

Series of tubules that run perpendicular to sarcolemma and into cytoplasm
