Document Summary

Neuromuscular junction: where axon terminal of motor neuron meets muscle fiber. Filament sliding theory: thick and thin myofilaments slide past each other in response to external stimulus. I-band = thin filament only: a-band = thick filament and overlap of thin filament, h-zone = myosin only, ca binds to troponin on actin, the binding of the ca2+ to the troponin causes a conformation change in tropomyosin. Then calcium channels on the membranes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum open. Calcium diffuses out of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and into the sarcoplasm (cytoplasm) of the muscle cell (contraction phase) in last lab we artificially contracted sciatic nerve muscle fatigue: lack of neurotransmitter (ach) release because used all ca, receptor, etc. In class nerve fatigued not muscle (burn nerve out, no ap) Cardiac output: how much blood your heart is pumping out per minute, depends on heart rate and stroke volume.
