The cytoplasm of a skeletal muscle fiber is called the?
Sarcoplasm
What transports calcium out of the sarcoplasm?
Calcium is transported out of the sarcoplasm by means of special ion pumps.
What are the specific terms for plasma membrane and cytoplasm of muscle cell?
Sarcolemma and sarcoplasm. (Sarco- is Greek for flesh)
How are the nuclei distributed in the sarcoplasm?
pls answer
What is the function of the calcium in the sarcoplasm?
Calcium is released from the sarcoplasm to bind with the troponin which allows the tropomyosin the reveal the binding sites on the actin so the muscle can contract
What is the function of the sarcoplasm?
The sarcoplasm is the cytoplasm or intracellular fluid of a muscle cell. It has many functions in acting as a medium for various cellular reactions to take place which are necessary for muscle contraction and general cellular metabolism.
What part of the muscle cell contains myofibrils?
The sarcoplasm
Do Skeletal muscle cells contain myoglobin?
Yes, in their sarcoplasm.
A fluid-filled sac that acts as a lubricating structure for muscle movement is a?
"sarcoplasm"
Which structure actively pumps calcium ions out of the sarcoplasm to produce relaxation?
sarcoplasmic reticulum
What is the sarcoplasmic?
The Sarcoplasm of a muscle fiber is comparable to the cytoplasm of other cells, but it houses unusually large amounts of glycosomes (granules of stored glycogen) and significant amounts of myoglobin, an oxygen binding protein.11. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcoplasm
Do skeletal muscle cells have glycosomes?
Yes, skeletal muscle cells have glycosomes and myoglobin in their sarcoplasm.
