What is the function of the transverse tubules in muscle activation?
What is the function of the transverse tubules, is it the place where actin and myosin interact or the storage of calcium ions, or to transmit muscle impulses into the cell interior?
What is the function role of t tubules?
Enhance cellular communication passage for nervous stimulation during muscle contraction.
What is the significance of the skeletal muscle fiber triad relationship?
The T tubules conduct electrical impulses that stimulate calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Can HIV attach itself to a muscle cell or a skin cell?
No, HIV cannot attach itself to a muscle or a skin cell because the antigens on the HIV membrane are not complementary to their binding sites. However, HIV can attach itself to a helper T cell because the antigens on the HIV membrane are complementary to the binding sites of the helper T cells.
What are the major parts of skeletal muscle fiber?
It is put here short and sweet. 1. Marrow 2. Calcified Bone 3. Periosteum 4. Spongy Bone 5. Cartilage TENDONS attach the MUSCLE to the BONE.Like the stringy thing in a chicken
Do Smooth muscle cells have t tubules?
no. Only skeletal and cardiac muscles have T tubules.
What are the tunnel-like extensions of the sarcolemma into the muscle fiber?
transverse tubules transverse tubules
What are the muscle action potential penetrates into a fiber along the?
Transverse tubules (T-Tubules)
The command to contract is distributed throughout a muscle fiber by the?
Transverse Tubules
Which muscle has the widest T tubules?
Cardiac muslce.
What is the function of the transverse tubules in muscle activation?
What is the function of the transverse tubules, is it the place where actin and myosin interact or the storage of calcium ions, or to transmit muscle impulses into the cell interior?
What period is characterized by calcium ions release into cytosol and depolarization of the sarcolemma and T tubules?
The period that would be characterized by those things would be muscle contraction. Calcium ions are the neurotransmitters that cause contraction. Calcium Ions depolarize the cell and are spread through out the muscle via the T tubules.
This transverse structure unique to muscle cells?
T-Tubules, I think...
What is the function of the tubules?
See this link for nice details...http://people.eku.edu/ritchisong/301notes3.htm In muscle contraction the transverse tubules transmit the muscle impulse into the inner cell.
The action potential is conducted into a skeletal muscle fiber by?
neuromuscular junctions Action potentials conduct down T tubules into skeletal muscles
What are calcium ions stores as in muscle cells?
sarcoplasmic reticulum, i think. either that are T tubules
What do action potentials travel down to cause muscle contraction?
Axon of neuron, sarcolemma, and T-tubules.
