According to the sliding filament mechanism of muscle contraction A)the A bands slide in closer between the I bands B)the thin filaments slide inward toward the center of the A band C)the z lines slide in between the T tubules D)the contractile proteins contract, thus shortening the sarcomere E)the filaments slide into the lateral sacs of the sarcoplasmic reticulum
The lever arm hypothesis for muscle arm contraction posits that actin sliding velocity should be proportional to the myosin lever arm length. A wild-type myosin lever arm is 80 Å and generates an actin sliding velocity of 2.5 μm/s. You generate a myosin mutant with 42 amino acids deleted, resulting in a lever arm of 60 Å. You measure the resulting actin sliding velocity to be 1.875 μm/s. Based on the lever arm hypothesis, what actin sliding velocity should you...
2. Muscle contraction involves the "pulling" of actin filaments by myosin II heads of a bipolar filament in sarcomeres. Would it be possible for myosin II heads to induce muscle relaxation (sarcomere lengthening) instead? Why or why not? (12.5 points) ANSWER:
> Question 42 1 pts forms a crossbridge with the thin filament during muscle contraction. Tropomyosin The myofilament The M line O Myosin The line Question 43 1 pts Cardiac output: O is equal to the heart rate multiplied by the stroke volume. O is the amount of blood pushed out of the heart in one heart beat, O is equal to the heart rate plus the strake volume is regulated only by the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous...
Which of the following statements about skeletal muscle contraction is false? During muscle contraction, the Z discs move closer together as the myosin heads move toward the plus ends of the actin filaments. The changes in voltage across the plasma membrane that occur when a muscle cell receives a signal from the nervous system causes Ca2+ to flow into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, triggering a muscle contraction. An action potential in the muscle cell plasma membrane leads to voltage-gated calcium channels...
Which of the following would be an effect of Botox? A. Muscle contraction of the muscles around the eye B. Muscle relaxation of the muscles around the eye
Answer please & thank you Question 11 2 pts The functioning of the cardiac muscle cells relies on action potentials for contraction and relaxation. Action potentials begin to occur about the 20th day in utero and are spontaneous. They originate in a cluster of cells referred to as the pacemaker cells located in the ___? O Bundle of His O Purkinje fibers 0 Atrioventricular node Sinoatrial node
Explain three ways a muscle can increase the force of a concentric contraction.
