Identify each muscle type by choosing the correct key choices and writing the letters in the answer blanks. Key Choices A. Cardiac B. Smooth C. Skeletal 1. Involuntary 2. Banded appearance 3. Longitudinally and circularly arranged layers 4. Dense connective tissue packaging ^ 5. Gap junctions 6. Coordinated activity allows it to act as a pump 7. Moves bones and the facial skin 8. Referred to as the muscular system 9. Voluntary > 10. Best at regenerating when injured

Enter the correct letters (and terms if desired) in the answer blanks. Then, select a different color for each of the terms in Column B that has a color-coding circle and color the structures in Figure 9-2. Column A Column B 1.

First, select a different color for each of the structures with a coding circle. Color the coding circles and the corresponding structures 09 Figure 9.3- When you have finished, bracket and label an A band/ an I banci, and a sarcomere/" Then, match the numbered lines (1, 2, and 3) in part B to the cross sections in part C. ^ Thin myofilaments Q Thick myofilaments ^ Z discs B o*o*o 0:6:6:6:0 0:0:0:0 o'o'o Figure 9.3

4 Chapter 9 Muscles and Muscle Tissue After referring to Figure 9-3 showing the configuration of a relaxed sarcomere, at the right, draw a contracted sarcomere. Label the thin myofilaments,"the thick myofilaments, and the Z lines. Draw an arrow beside one myosin head on each end of the A band to indicate the direction of the working stroke. 4. Fill in the blanks at the right below, giving the location of calcium during the stated phases of muscle contraction. Use the key choices provided at the left. Key Choices A. Becoming bound to calsequestrin B. Attached to troponin C. In terminal cisternae 1. Unstimulated fiber 2. Contracting fiber 3- Recovering fiber 5. Figure 9-4 shows the intimate relationship between the sarcolemma and two important muscle cell organelles the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) and the myofibrils in a small segment of a muscle cell. Identify each structure below by coloring the coding circles and the corresponding structures on the diagram. Then bracket and label the composite structure called the triad. Mitochondrion Myofibrils Sarcolernma SR Q T tubule i -..yv; t.- Figure 9.4

5 1 94 Chapter 9 Muscles and Muscle Tissue : 6. Correctly relate the story of contraction events in a muscle fiber by numbering each event below. The first step is indicated (number 1). 1. Myosin heads bind to active sites on actin molecules. 2. ATP is hydrolyzed. 3. Myosin heads return to their high-energy shape (cocked), ready for the next working stroke. 4. Calcium ions bind to troponin. 5. Cycling continues until calcium ions are sequestered by the SR. 6. Myosin cross bridges detach from actin. 7. Troponin changes shape. 8. ADP and Pj (inorganic phosphate) are released from the thick filament. 9. Myosin heads pull on the thin filaments (working stroke) and slide them toward the center of the sarcomere. 10. ATP binds to the thick filament. 11. Tropomyosin is moved into the groove between the F-actin strands exposing active sites on actin. t 10. Which of these bands or lines narrows when a skeletal muscle contracts? Check (/) the appropriate answer. J 1. H band 2. A band 3. I band 4. M line

6 Chapter 9 Muscles:an'd Muscle Tissue Figure 9-6 shows the components of a neuromuscular junction. Identify the parts by coloring the coding circles and the corresponding structures in the diagram. Add small arrows to indicate the location of the ACh receptors and label appropriately. Mitochondrion Q) Synaptic vesicles of Junctional folds Synaptic cleft (7) T tubule (3^ Sarcomere h Figure Number the following statements in their proper sequence to describe excitation-contraction coupling in a skeletal muscle cell. The first step has already been identified as number Acetylcholine is released by the axonal ending, diffuses to the muscle cell, and attaches to ACh receptors on the sarcolemma. 2. The action potential, carried deep into the cell via the T tubules, causes the SR to release calcium ions. 3. AChE breaks down ACh, which separates from its receptors. 4. The muscle cell relaxes and lengthens. 5. The calcium ion concentration at the myofilaments increases; the myofilaments slide past one another, and the cell shortens. G? 6. Depolarization'occurs, and the action potential is generated along the sarcolemma. 7. Within 30 ms after the action potential ends, Ca2+ concentration at the myofilaments decreases.

Gregor, who works at a pesticide factory, comes to the clinic complaining of - muscle spasms that interfere with his movement and breathing. A blood test \ shows that he has become contaminated with organophosphate pesticide., \ The doctor states that this type of pesticide is an acetylcholinesterase h inhibitor. How would you explain to Gregor what this means? -, (j L AA^^-,.A naajmjh

Which is a cross bridge attachment more similar to: a precision rowing team or a person pulling a rope and bucket out of a well? 3. chickens are capable of only brief bursts of flight, and their flying muscles consist of white fibers, The breast muscles of ducks, by contrast, consist of red and intermediate fibers. What can you deduce about the flying abilities of ducks?
