    Anatomy of Muscle Cells There are three types of muscle tissue in the human body. These muscle tissues are skeletal muscles‚ smooth muscles and cardiac muscles. Each of these muscle tissues has it very own anatomical makeup‚ which vary from muscle to muscle. The muscle cells in a muscle are referred to as muscle fibers‚ these fibers are skeletal muscle fibers‚ smooth muscle fibers and cardiac muscle fibers. The anatomy of a skeletal muscle fiber is formed during embryonic development

    There are three phases for muscle cell contraction: initiation of action potential in the sarcolemma‚ excitation-contraction coupling‚ and contraction‚ sliding of the myofilaments. ATP and calcium ions are two essential elements for muscle contraction. When ATP attaches to the myosin head‚ it gets hydrolyzed to ADP and Pi. Calcium ions bind to the troponin molecules and help expose the binding sites of actin filaments to allow for the attachment of the myosin heads. After the sliding of the myofilaments

    Muscle dysmorphia is a body dysmorphic disorder whereby sufferers are obsessed with increasing their “muscularity and leanness”‚ even if they may already be very muscular compared to the average person (Choi‚ Pope‚ & Olivardia‚ 2002; Pope‚ Gruber‚ Choi‚ Olivardia‚ & Phillips‚ 1997). They strive to make up for their overstated physical weakness through many hours of weight training and a disproportionately large focus on nutrition (Mosley‚ 2009). They are resistant to persuasion to think better of

    Muscle Cell at rest: As the muscle cell is at rest it has a resting potential of -90mV.  The K+ is all located inside the cell‚ the Na+ is located outside  of the cell and the Ca2+ is located inside the sarcoplasmic reticulum.  All leak channels and pumps are closed at this point. Muscle Cell stimulated by Acetylcholine: A motor neuron releases Acetylcholine which diffuses toward the  muscle cell across the neuromuscular junction. As the Acetylcholine  binds to a receptor on the muscle

    Muscular System: Muscle Metabolism 1. List the three roles of ATP in muscle contraction: 1. _Energize the power stroke of the myosin cross bridge. 2. _Disconnecting the myosin head from the binding site on actin at the conclusion of a power stroke. 3. _Energizing the calcium ion pump. 2. The potential energy in ATP is released when the terminal high-energy bond is broken by a process called hydrolysis. Write the end products of this process: ATP (+ H2O) (

    muscle contraction Introduction For a skeletal muscle fiber to contract‚ a stimulus must be applied to it. The stimulus is delivered by a nerve cell‚ or neuron. A neuron has a threadlike process called and axon that my run 91 cm or more to a muscle. A bundle of such fibers from man different neurons composes a nerve. A neuron that stimulates muscle tissue is called a motor neuron. The motor neuron branches into terminal structures called telodendria that come into close approximation with
