Each fibre contains 4-20 filiform filaments with a length up to 100μ, In sarcomeres, myofibrils are organised along their longitudinal axis, The repetitive distribution of sarcomeres gives them their characteristic striated aspect

The microscopic aspect of the sarcomere shows:

The presence of two types of myofilaments (actin and myosin), arranged parallel to each other, The presence of Z-line – the area in which the actin filaments of two adjacent sarcomeres are interconnected, The clear band divided into two equal halves by the Z-line is called I-band

Thin actin myofilaments and thick myosin myofilaments are arranged parallel to each other, The A-band is divided into two equal halves by the H zone which contains only myosin filaments, Thick filaments consist of myosin, a protein formed of two polypeptide chains twisted around each other

The actin filament:

Is thin and looks like a helix formed of two polypeptide chains twisted around each other, Contains tropomyosin molecules in the groove of the helix

The red muscle:

Contains a large quantity of myoglobin, an oxygen-storing protein, Is a slow or oxidative muscle, It can withstand muscle fatigue, due to the oxygen stored in the myoglobin, which will be used in cellular respiration

The white muscle:

Is a fast, glycolytic muscle (so called due to its high glycogen content), Rapidly uses ATP (adenosine triphosphate acid) but it cannot replace it as fast as it uses it, It has very little available oxygen necessary for cellular respiration

The following statement(s) is/are true about calcium ions (Ca 2+) in the muscle fibre:

Normally, in a resting cell, their concentration is very low in the sarcoplasm, They are constantly pumped out of or into the cell in the cell’s specialised smooth endoplasmic reticulum (sarcoplasmic reticulum), They are stored in the sarcoplasm reticulum reservoir and on the transverse tubule system (T tubules)

During the greatest muscle contraction in skeletal muscles:

The thin actin filaments are superposed, Sarcomeres reach their smallest size, The H-zone disappeared and the I-band greatly decreased in size

Filament sliding cycles in striated muscles:

Take place as long as adenosine triphosphate is available, Take place very quickly, at millions of myosin ends, Take place as long as there is a nerve stimulus

Myoglobin:

Is present in large quantities in red muscle fibres, Is the muscle pigment which stores oxygen necessary for cellular respiration

A neuromuscular junction consists of:

A single muscle fibre, very close to the nerve ending, but without touching it, The end of a single nerve cell which does not touch the sarcolemma of the muscle fibre, The synaptic cleft – a fluid filled space

Acetylcholine:

Is released in the synaptic cleft of the neuromuscular junction, Is a neurotransmitter which can also be released by certain neurons in the encephalon, Is bound to the receptors on the cellular membrane of the muscle fibre (sarcolemma)

Muscle contraction requires the following:

Acetylcholine - neurotransmitter, Sodium ions (Na+) which permeate the cell when acetylcholine is bound to the sarcolemma receptors

The necessary calcium required for a muscle contraction is provided by:

The sarcoplasmic reticulum, The transverse tubules (T system)

In order to induce muscle contraction, calcium is bound to:

Troponin – at certain binding sites

Which of the following substances are involved in the contraction of the striated skeletal muscle?:

Actin – myosin, Myoglobin – myosin

Muscle relaxation:

Takes place when there are no more nerve impulses to stimulate the muscle, Requires the pumping of calcium into the terminal cisternae, Takes place by reverting troponin to its resting configuration, which causes tropomyosin to cover the sites where myosin binds to actin filaments

During muscle relaxation:

Calcium ions are actively transported into the T tubules and the sarcoplasmic reticulum, Cross bridges between actin and myosin filaments are broken

During muscle contraction:

Acetylcholine crosses the synaptic cleft at the neuromuscular junction, The sarcomere becomes shorter, Cross bridges between actin and myosin filaments are formed

The energy used for muscle contraction:

Derives from adenosine triphosphate which will be decomposed by enzymes under the action of ATP-ase, Is produced by the mitochondria where reactions of the process of cellular respiration take place, Derives from carbohydrate metabolism when ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and phosphocreatine reserves have been exhausted

Lactic acid is produced as a result of:

Myoglobin is the pigment which binds oxygen molecules and temporarily stores them in the muscle, Myosin filaments have golf-club-shaped endings oriented laterally

ATP-ase:

Is an enzyme found at the ends of myosin filaments, Degrades ATP (adenosine triphosphate) into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and a phosphate group, releasing energy from the molecule

The following statement(s) is/are true about myoglobin:

It binds oxygen molecules and stores them temporarily in the muscles, Its presence in the muscle fibre decreases the necessity of a constant oxygen supply to the muscle during contraction
