Notes – The Muscular System part 2 Micro anatomy of a myofibril – Read & Study pgs 185-187 Skeletal muscle cells are multinucleate with the nuclei located just beneath the plasma membrane A. ____________________________________: specialized plasma membrane of a muscle fiber B. __________________________________________: cytoplasm of a muscle fiber C. ______________________________: unique oxygen binding protein in a muscle D. _______________________________ – long rod like organelles 1. ______% of cell volume 2. Run parallel the entire length of cell 3. Other organelles squeezed in between 4. A bands - ____________ bands a. contain ________________ – lighter central area - visible only in relaxed fiber 5. I bands - _____________ bands a. contain _________________________ at midpoint 6. Banding patterns/striations reveal the working structure E. _____________________________ - region between 2 successive Z lines - contractile unit 1. actin, anchored to Z line/disc, contain _________________ and _______________ to regulate myofilament attachment 2. _____________ with cross bridge heads - contain ATPases (enzymes split ATP) F. _________________________________: form of smooth ER surrounding myofibrils 1. major function of SR: store ___________________ and release it on demand 2. at A-I junction, sarcolemma forms penetrating hollow tube called _____ tubule whose function is to conduct stimulus deep into every ____________________________ 1 End of Quiz #1 Material: Microanatomy of a Myofibril Contraction of Muscle I. Mechanism of contraction (on a cellular level) - Regulation of Contraction – how muscle knows WHEN to contract – Read & Study pgs 187-190 A. Motor Unit a. One motor neuron and ALL the muscle cells that it stimulates b. Spread throughout muscle c. Stimulation of one motor unit results in weak contraction of ENTIRE muscle i. Since a motor unit is spread throughout the muscle & not clustered together, it stimulation will activate cells scattered throughout the entire muscle ii. This causes a weak contraction of the entire muscle iii. Muscles requiring fine control have small motor units that only activate a few cells at a time. B. Neuromuscular Junction a. Each axon terminal forms junction with single muscle fiber C. Synaptic cleft – fluid filled gap between nerve and muscle a. Nerve and muscle do not make contact b. Importance: prevent continuous stimulation D. Transmission 2 a. Vesicles in axon terminal filled with neurotransmitter – chemical released by nerve upon arrival of nerve impulse b. The neurotransmitter for skeletal muscle is acetylcholine (ACh) c. Neurotransmitter crosses synaptic cleft and attaches to receptors on the sarcolemma d. Sarcolemma becomes temporarily permeable to sodium (Na+) e. Na+ ions rush into muscle cell which reverses electrical conditions f. Action potential is caused which moves along sarcolemma and down T tubules deep into muscle fiber g. Once initiated – action potential is unstoppable (all or none principle) resulting in full contraction of that particular muscle fiber (cell) E. Safeguards - When nerve stimulation stops: a. Ach is destroyed by acetylcholinesterase (AChE) to prevent continued contraction b. Substances such as certain organophosphates found in pesticides and fertilizers destroy AChE causing convulsions F. K+ ions leaves cell rapidly to restore electrical balance G. Then Na-K pump restores ions to original positions for relaxation of muscle fiber B. Sliding filament theory –see diagrams pages 190-191 1. The thin filaments slide past the thick filaments so that overlap increases 2. What causes the filaments to slide? a. cross bridge attachment - Mysosin head has __________ energy configuration and binds to actin binding site in the presence of Ca2+ b. power stroke — ATP provides energy to bend and pull actin filament toward center of sarcomere – results in shortening of ~1% of the sarcomere c. cross bridge detachment — ATP also provides energy causing cross bridge to detach i. rigor mortis – ________________________________________________ d. "cocking" of the myosin heads — energy returns myosin head to upright high energy configuration C. role of ionic calcium in regulating muscle contraction — In the absence of ionic calcium, the _________________________ (a regulatory protein) blocks the binding sites on the actin so the filaments cannot attach to each other. When ionic calcium becomes present, it is avidly bound by the ______________________ (another regulatory protein) which causes the tropomyosin to change shape thus exposing the binding site allowing attachment of the actin and myosin. D. SUMMARY: excitation-contraction coupling 1. Action potential "wave" travels along sarcolemma and deep into T tubules. 2. This triggers Ca2+ release from terminal cisternae of SR 3. Ca2+ binds to troponin — binding sites exposed. 4. Contraction: see sliding filament theory 5. Action potential ends, Ca2+ is taken back up into the SR 6. Tropomyosin blockage restored, contraction ends, muscle fiber relaxes. 3 II. Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle (on an organ level) - Know figure 6.8 page 192 All or none principle applies to the muscle cell NOT the whole muscle A. Graded Muscle Responses - variations in degrees of muscle shortening produced in 2 ways: a. By changing the frequency of muscle stimulation (recognize on diagram) i. Single Muscle Twitch - differences in twitch responses due to differences in metabolic properties and enzymes present in different muscles (useful for diagnostics) ii. Treppe - staircase pattern on myogram recording 1. each succeeding contraction is strengthened 2. reflects sudden increased availability of calcium ions 3. heat increases efficiency of muscle’s enzyme systems basis of warm up period for athletes iii. Wave summation - impulses delivered in rapid succession will cause each contraction to build onto the preceding contraction iv. Tetanus - As this continues, the individual contractions become fused into a smooth, sustained contraction called tetanus (usual manner of muscle contractions) b. by changing the number of muscle cells being stimulated i. Multiple Motor Unit Summation (Recruitment) 1. controls force of muscle contraction 2. larger # of motor units recruited = larger force of contraction 3. Weak or precise movements = few motor units 4. Type I first, then type IIa, then type IIb (will learn about later) B. Isometric vs. isotonic contractions page 195 i. Isotonic (same ________________) contractions 1. Myofilaments are able to slide past each other during contractions 2. The muscle shortens & movement occurs ii. Isometric (same ____________________) contractions 1. Tension in the muscles increases 2. The muscle does not shorten & no movement occurs – Resistance exercises 3. Most movements involve both types of activity 4 Muscle metabolism - page 193-195 ATP is the only energy source that can be used directly to power muscle activity – it must be generated continuously Stored ATP in working muscles is depleted in ~ 6 seconds. I. Three pathways that regenerate ATP for muscles Direct phosphorylation of Anaerobic Aerobic respiration CP respiration (mitochondria) (cytoplasm) Energy Creatine Phosphate Glucose Glucose, fatty acids source High energy molecule (only glycolysis (resting/slowly contracting found only in muscle fibers used) muscles), amino acids (if no glucose/fatty acids available) Oxygen use None CP + ADP creatine + ATP None Required Glucose + oxygen Products 1 ATP per CP, creatine 2 ATP per glucose, lactic acid ~36 ATP per glucose, CO2, H2O Duration of energy ____________ seconds ________ seconds ____________ Activities Brief maximum power surge: Weightlifting, diving, sprinting More sustainedless vigorous as O2 depletes Endurance rather than power activities: Marathon, jogging Speed & efficiency Very fast, very reversible, easily replenished when muscle are inactive 2 ½ x faster than aerobic, not as efficient, Slower, requires continuous delivery of oxygen & nutrients to muscle BUT most efficient Muscle Fatigue & Oxygen Debt I. 3 main factors affect your respiration type: a. ______________________________________________________ b. ______________________________________________________ c. ______________________________________________________ II.

Circulatory and respiratory system cannot _____________oxygen as fast as muscles are using it up. b. leads to ____________ buildup - when oxygen is again available – lactic acid is converted to pyruvic acid and oxidized c. For muscle to be restored to resting state: 1. Oxygen stores must be replenished 2. Lactic acid converted to _____________ acid 3. __________________ stores replaced 4. ATP & creatine phosphate reserves replenished 5. Liver must reconvert the pyruvic acid produced to glucose or glycogen 6. ALL of these processes require _______ d. Oxygen debt is the ________________ amount of oxygen that must be taken into the body to provide for these restorative processes 1.

All ____________________ sources of ATP used during muscle activity contribute to this debt f. Repaid by rapid, deep breathing (__________________________ - triggered by change in pH from lactic acid) after exertion is ended g.
