What is the chemical used at the junction with a skeletal muscle?
The chemical used at the junction with a skeletal muscle is acetylcholine (ACh). It is released from the motor neuron at the neuromuscular junction and binds to receptors on the muscle fiber's membrane, triggering muscle contraction. This process is essential for voluntary movement and is part of the overall neuromuscular signaling mechanism.
What does ach do at a neuromuscular junction?
ACh (acetylcholine) binds to receptors at the NMJ (neuromuscular junction) to induce contraction of muscle.
What happens when calcium binds troponin?
tropomyosin moves out of the groove between the actin molecules.
Does a chemical that binds and blocks atp receptors of muscle cells make the best muscle relaxant?
No, it's probably a better way of getting a muscle cramp.
What happens when acetycholine binds to its receptor in the sarcolemma and triggers?
When acetylcholine binds to its receptor in the sarcolemma of a muscle cell, it triggers an action potential to be generated along the muscle cell membrane. This action potential then spreads along the sarcolemma and eventually leads to muscle contraction by initiating the release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
What is a good chemical to administer to a patient during a major surgery for good skeletal muscle relaxant?
chemical A binds with and blocks ACh receptors on muscle cells.
What is the chemical used at the junction with a skeletal muscle?
The chemical used at the junction with a skeletal muscle is acetylcholine (ACh). It is released from the motor neuron at the neuromuscular junction and binds to receptors on the muscle fiber's membrane, triggering muscle contraction. This process is essential for voluntary movement and is part of the overall neuromuscular signaling mechanism.
A protein that binds the calcium in smooth muscle?
Calmodulin is a protein that binds calcium ions in smooth muscle cells. When calcium binds to calmodulin, it triggers a series of intracellular signaling events that lead to smooth muscle contraction.
What binds muscle to bone and muscle to muscle?
Tendons tie muscles to bones and ligaments tie muscle to muscle.
Where does the adrenaline go after it is going through the blood stream?
In the bloodsteam, adrenaline acts as a hormone and binds to a few different kinds of adrenoreceptors that are found in skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, smooth muscle etcDepending on the receptor, it can trigger different cascade pathways that yeild different response for "fightning or fleeing"
What does epinephrine do when binding to beta 1 receptors?
It stimulates both receptor with almost the same affinity
How does blocking the activity of acetylcholinesterase affect skeletal muscle?
Acetylcholine release is necessary for skeletal muscle contraction, because it serves as the first step in the process, enabling the subsequent cross-bridge formation. A muscle's ability to contract depends on the formation of cross-bridges between myosin & actin filaments. A drug that blocks acetylcholine release would interfere with this cross-bridge formation and prevent muscle contraction
Which muscles in the body are likely to have higher concentrations of myoglobin?
Myoglobin is basically a protein that binds oxygen and iron. It is found in the muscle tissue of vertebrates and almost all mammals. It is highly concentrated in skeletal muscles, cardiac muscles and damaged muscle tissues that are similarly known as rhabdomyolysis.
What chemical binds to the muscle cell memebrane causing a temporary rush of what into the muscle cell?
Acetylcholine binds to the muscle cell membrane, causing a temporary rush of calcium ions into the muscle cell. This influx of calcium triggers muscle contraction.
When a muscle cell responds to a stimulus calcium is released from the?
When a muscle cell responds to a stimulus, calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This calcium binds to troponin, triggering a conformational change that allows myosin to bind to actin and initiate muscle contraction.
What does ach do at a neuromuscular junction?
ACh (acetylcholine) binds to receptors at the NMJ (neuromuscular junction) to induce contraction of muscle.
What happens when calcium binds troponin?
tropomyosin moves out of the groove between the actin molecules.
