What are the Skeletal muscle cells that function in calcium storage?
in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of a muscle fiber/cell.
What cellular organelle in muscle fiber corresponds to the endoplasmic reticulum?
Sarcoplasmic reticulum is the cellular organelle in muscle fiber that corresponds to the endoplasmic reticulum.
What is the cellular organelle in muscle fiber corrospondin to endoplasmic reticulum?
Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) .
What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum of a muscle cell?
What is a synapse between a nerve fiver and a muscle fiber
Which substance is stored in the muscle's endoplasmic reticulum and then released when a nerve signal stimulates a muscle fiber?
Calcium ions
Where are the calcium ions stored in a muscle fiber?
In the sarcoplasmic reticulum (smooth er).
Molecules pass in and out of the sarcoplasmic reticulum as a muscle fiber contracts and releases?
calcium Ca2+
What does a muscle triad include?
For skeletal muscle, a triad includes a T tubule with a sarcoplasmic reticulum and a terminal cisterna on either side. Within a muscle fiber there are thousands of triads.
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.
What is the function of End Plates?
A motor endplate is a large special synaptic contact between motor axons and each skeletal muscle fiber. Each muscle fiber forms one endplate. Its function is to transmit impulses from nerves to muscles.
What is immediate source of calcium ion for muscle fiber?
There is some calcium outside the cell but the bulk of it comes from intracellular stores.
What is the function of motor end plate?
A motor endplate is a large special synaptic contact between motor axons and each skeletal muscle fiber. Each muscle fiber forms one endplate. Its function is to transmit impulses from nerves to muscles.
