HSC 308 Exam 1 Practice Questions and
Answers – Updated 2024

What are the three types of muscle tissue? - Answer✔✔-Smooth


Cardiac


Skeletal


Smooth muscle is: - Answer✔✔-involuntary, hollow organs, blood vessels


Cardiac Muscle is: - Answer✔✔-involuntary, found in the heart


Skeletal muscle is: - Answer✔✔-voluntary, makes up the skeleton


Myosin (thick filaments) is: - Answer✔✔-two intertwined filaments with globular heads


Globular Heads - Answer✔✔-protrude 360 deg. from thick filament axis and will interact with

actin filaments for contraction


Myosin is stabilized by: - Answer✔✔-titin


Actin (thin filaments) is: - Answer✔✔-composed of three proteins


-Actin contains the myosin binding site


-tropomyosin covers active site at rest

-troponin is anchored to actin, moves tropomyosin


Actin is anchored at the Z-disk by: - Answer✔✔-nebulin


Cross bridge cycle steps - Answer✔✔-1. Cross bridge formation


2. power stroke


3. cross bridge detachment


4. reactivation of myosin head


During cross bridge formation, - Answer✔✔-inorganic phosphate is released


During the power stroke, - Answer✔✔-myofilament slides


a-motor nuerons - Answer✔✔-innervate muscle fibers


Motor Unit - Answer✔✔-single a-motor neuron and all fibers it innervates


The more operating motor units=more contractile force


Neuromuscular Junction - Answer✔✔-Site of communication between neuron and muscle


Consists of synapse between a-motor neuron and muscle fiber


Where ACh is released


Steps of Excitation Contraction Coupling - Answer✔✔-1. Action potential starts in brain


2. AP arrives at axon terminal, releases ACh at NMJ


3. ACh crosses synapse, binds to ACh receptors on plasmallemma

4. AP travels down plamalemma through T-tubules


5. Triggers Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)


6. Ca2+ endables actin-myosin contraction


Role of Ca2+ in Muscle Contraction - Answer✔✔-Binds to troponin on thin filament which can

then move tropomyosin


At rest, tropomyosin covers: - Answer✔✔-Myosin binding site, blocking the actin-myosin

attraction


When myosin binds to actin, - Answer✔✔-contraction can occur


Role of ATP in Muscle Contraction - Answer✔✔-Binds to myosin head


Energy released when ATP breaks facilitates: - Answer✔✔-myosin's movement to a new actin

molecule


When the action potential ends, - Answer✔✔-electrical stimulation of SR stops


Ca2+ is pumped back into SR - Answer✔✔-stored until next AP arrives


requires ATP


Without Ca2+, troponin and tropomyosin returns to: - Answer✔✔-resting conformation


Covers myosin binding site


Prevents actin-myosin cross bridging
