The filaments myosin attach to for contraction
What is actin
This is the direct result of lack of fluids during a workout
What is thickened blood
What muscle cells are more commonly called
what are muscle fibers
People with this disorder lack the ability to make ATP
what are mitochondrial disorders
The ion that allows actin and myosin to bind
what is calcium
The bundled, fiber-like organelles inside the muscle fiber
What is the myofibril
This is a byproduct of your body performing anaerobic respiration
What is lactic acid
These attach muscle to bone
what are tendons
A condition caused by a mutation that only effects males
What is muscular dystrophy
The neurotransmitter released in action potential
What is Acetylcholine or ACh
The contracting filaments with hands
What is myosin
Once a muscle fiber has reached full oxygen debt, it will begin to do this
What is Anaerobic respiration
These muscle fibers are voluntary
What are skeletal muscle
These muscles are affected first by Myasthenia gravis
What are facial muscles
This ion floods a neuron to allow it to fire
what is sodium
The myofibril is further sectioned up into...
What are sarcomeres
Your muscles first line of reserve energy
What is creatine phosphate
This muscle type surrounds internal organs like the stomach
What is smooth muscle
This condition is caused by an autoimmune disorder
What is myasthenia gravis
When actin and myosin want to continue performing contraction, this molecule allows them to unbind & rebind
what is ATP
The protective wrapping surrounding muscle fibers
What is the sarcolemma
This is required after a workout for muscle repair
What is 10-20 g protein
the 3 elements of muscle movement
what are action potential, contraction, and relaxation
what are 2 of 3 leading causes of muscle cramps
What are dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, or lack of blood flow
This allows sodium and potassium to revert back to their resting state in a neuron
What is the sodium/potassium pump or solute pump
