    Muscle Contraction & Excitation Muscle excitation takes place when there is a synaptic transmission and induction of an impulse. There are six steps that take place during muscle excitation. (1)The action potential travels down the somatic motor neuron axon reaching the synaptic bulb causing calcium ions to flow into the synaptic bulb. (2)The increase of calcium in the synaptic bulb causes the synaptic vesicles to undergo exocytosis. (Exocytosis a process that allows large molecule to leave

    basketball has some type of force working upon it. For example‚ without friction a basketball player would be unable to stop because inertia states that objects in motion tend to stay in motion.

    During a Muscle Contraction The muscle fiber is in a resting state. The resting state is slightly negative inside and slightly positive outside. It has to be in this state in order to receive a message. First the brain sends a message to the muscle using a neuron then reaches the axon terminal of the neuron. Calcium gates then open on the axon terminal allowing calcium to rush in. Ach release from axon terminals‚ diffuses across the synaptic clef and binds to (receptors) on motor end plate. Then

    two different types of endoplasmic reticulum; the smooth ER and the rough ER. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is plentiful in membrane bound enzymes (Koolman & Rohm‚ 2005). These enzymes catalyze incomplete reactions in lipid digestion and biotransformation (the chemical alteration of a substance within the body) (Koolman & Rohm‚ 2005). The smooth endoplasmic reticulum are the sections that have no ribosomes attached (Koolman & Rohm‚ 2005). The smooth ER can be found in both plant and animal cells
