9. Events Leading up to Muscle Contraction Nerve impulse arrives at end of motor nerve axon causing Acetylcholine (Ach) release into synapse via exocytosis ACh floods across synaptic gap and attaches to receptors on the sarcolemma Permeability of sarcolemma changes and Na+ enters cell A muscle impulse is triggered Muscle impulse travels via the transverse tubules throughout muscle cell Ca++ diffuses from SR and binds to troponin on actin Myosin cross bridges link with actin and muscle contracts

Tropomyosin pulled aside ATP 2 Ca +2 binds to troponin Binding sites on actin exposed Ca +2 Exposed binding sites on actin molecules allow the muscle contraction cycle to occur ADP +P P Muscle Contraction Ca ++ released from sarcoplasmic reticulum

13. ATP New ATP binds to myosin, releasing linkages5 6 ATP splits, which provides power to“cock” the myosin cross-bridges ADP + P P

16. Muscle Fiber Excitation Nerve impulse arrives at axon terminal Triggers release of Ach by exocytosis ACh diffuses across synaptic cleft ACh binds to receptors on muscle motor end plate Sarcolemma becomes more permeable to Na+ Na+ triggers release of muscle action potential Muscle action potential travels along outside of sarcolemma and into T tubules Action potential triggers Ca++ release from SR Ca++ binds to troponin on thin filament Tropomyosin is pulled aside, revealing binding sites Myosin links to & pulls actin to contract muscle Muscle Fiber Relaxation Acetylcholinesterase decomposes ACh in synapse Action potential (impulse) ends SR actively pumps Ca++ back into SR Tropomyosin moves back to cover binding sites Myosin heads detach Muscle fiber returns to its longer resting length

Lactic acid ATP Synthesis of 34 CO 2 + H 2 O + Energy Pyruvic acid Heat Mitochondria Cytosol Citric acid cycle Electron transport chain Oxygen carried from the lungs by hemoglobin in red blood cells is stored in muscle cells by myoglobin and is available to support aerobic respiration. Long-term ATP is provided by Aerobic Cellular Respiration

22. Heat Production 85% of heat generated in the body is from muscle contraction Muscle Fatigue Defined as a loss of work out-put leading to reduced performance Build-up of lactic acid Depletion of muscle glycogen Decrease in blood glucose Increase in body temperature

23. Oxygen Debt Recovery period - restores pre-exertion metabolic condition convert lactic acid back into glycogen resynthesize creatine phosphate replenish oxygen storage in myoglobin

27. Fast Twitch and Slow Twitch Muscle Fibers Slow-twitch fibers (Type I) Slow to respond, slow to fatigue Fast-twitch glycolytic fibers (Type IIa) Fast to respond, fast to fatigue Fast-twitch fatigue-resistant fibers (Type IIb) Fast to respond, slow to fatigue

28. Slow-twitch fibers (Type I) Slow to respond - slow to fatigue Always oxidative Resistant to fatigue Red fibers Most myoglobin Good blood supply - more capillaries Lots of mitochondria Smallest fibers

29. Fast-twitch glycolytic fibers (Type IIa) Fast to respond - fast to fatique White fibers (less myoglobin) Poorer blood supply Susceptible to fatigue Largest fibers Lots of glycogen Few mitochondria Fast-twitch fatigue-resistant fibers (Type IIb) Fast to respond - slow to fatique Intermediate fibers Oxidative Intermediate amount of myoglobin Intermediate amount of mitochondria Pink to red in color Resistant to fatigue
