Muscle Action

A change in the body or a bodily organ as a result of its functioning is referred to as an action. Muscle action can be defined as the specific movement of a bodily part generated by the contraction of a muscle. The muscle proteins actin and myosin are the important contractile proteins involved in muscle action. Muscle contraction, in addition to movement, serves several other important functions in the body, including posture, heat generation, and joint stability. Muscle contraction maintains posture, which includes standing and sitting.

3.4. About human skeletal muscle contraction, what are the correct statements? PHYSIOLOGY_basic (OJO) A muscle fiber is made by the parallel apposition of sarcomers. Generation of force relies on the formation of cross-bridges between actin and myosin filaments. In the process of contraction, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is required both to drive the actin-myosin association-dissociation cycle and to recycle calcium back to the endoplasmic reticulum. Each muscle fiber is innervated by one neuron only. T tubules are plasma membrane invaginations of the sarcolemma that allow excitation-contraction coupling.
34. in an experimental study of skeletal muscle function, an isolated muscle strip is electrically stimulated from various initial lengths, and tension is recorded in the graph shown. Compared with initial length A, the greater tension generated at initial length B is the result of which of the following? A) Decrease in intracellular calcium concentration B) Decrease in shortening velocity C) Increase in load D) Increase in numbers of active cross-bridges E) Increase in rate of cross-bridge cycling Maximal tension 8 Skeletal muscle length

Hill's equation gives a relation between muscle contraction rates νν and muscle tension TT (T+α)(ν+β)=(T0+α)β(T+α)(ν+β)=(T0+α)β for positive parameters αα and ββ and resting tension T0T0. Rewrite the equation so that the contraction rate is a function of tension.
1. Draw and label the steps of the sliding filament mechanism in skeletal muscle. This should be four parts (Cross- bridge, power stroke, disassociation, reactivation). On each part, be sure to include the following structures: actin, myosin, troponin, tropomyosin. Also include ATP, myosin ATPase, ADP, Pi, and H* (where important). • Cross-bridge: . Powerstroke: ● Disassociation: ● Reactivation:

17.For the hierarchy of skeletal muscle organization, which accurately lists the order of structures from "small" to "big"?(This is a multiple choice question choose the answer from the choices below) A.skeletal muscle; bundles of muscle fiber; myofibril; muscle fiber; sarcomere B.sarcomere; myofibril; muscle fiber; bundles of muscle fiber; skeletal muscle C.skeletal muscle; sarcomere; muscle fiber; myofibril D.None of the choices are correct.
since sarcomeres within skeletal muscles are rigidly aligned with each other what do you think excessive stretch or compression (remember the basic structure of the sarcomere with overlapping thin and thick filaments and the length-tension relationship) will do to the force generation of a muscle contraction?
As mentioned in class, one additional major use of ATP in skeletal muscle (besides powering the myosin heads) is the recycling of calcium ions back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum after depolarization. The resting concentration of Ca++ in the muscle cell cytoplasm is about 50-100 nM, and the spike concentration after depolarization is about 10-20 μΜ. a) Consider a single sarcomere. What is the number of free calcium ions within the sarcomere at rest? What is the number of free calcium ions after depolarization? b) The major ion pump responsible for calcium ion recycling is SERCA (sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase). SERCA uses one molecule of ATP to pump two calcium ions, and the resting level can be restored in about 10-20 ms. How many molecules of ATP are used in a single sarcomere for pumping calcium in a single "twitch"? c) Assume that a single "twitch" is sufficient to drive one sarcomere from its fully extended length (about 2.5 µm) to its fully contracted length (about 1…
The graphs below show the force-versus-shortening-velocity and power-versus- shortening-velocity curves for four muscles in the human lower extremity. Note that these curves show this relationship only for shortening activations (positive shortening velocities), not lengthening activations. And, note that the values displayed on the axes of the graphs are absolute (not normalized) values of force, power, and velocity. These graphs apply to the next three questions.
