What are transverse (T) tubules?
200
The shape of cardiac muscle cells
What is y-shaped or branched fibers
200
The property that explains why this type of muscle is named "smooth"
What is unstriated?
200
The name of the cell membrane
What is sarcolemma?
200

400
Troponin moves the first answer off of binding sites on the second answer
What are tropomyosin and actin?
500
Intercalated discs are made of these two types of junctions
What are desmosomes & gap junctions
500
The property explains why you can digest for an indefinite amount of time, for example

500
The layer that is just superficial to deep fascia (3 names)
What is the hypodermis/subcutaneous layer/superficial fascia?
500
The myofilament that binds to actin and shortens the sarcomere
What is myosin?
