Energy is supplied to muscles for contraction by means of adenosine triphosphate being stored in muscle fibers. These are stored from creatine phosphate, enough to power muscle contractions for a few seconds.

What would occur if the uptake of calcium ions was blocked in the sarcoplasmic reticulum?
Sustained muscle contraction.
What chemical reactions occur in the muscle during latent period of muscle contraction?
During the latent period of muscle contraction Ca++ is being released from the sacroplasmic reticulum and filament movement is taking up slack. This takes approx. 2 milliseconds.
Are ATP and calcium both needed for muscle contraction to occur?
look in ur freaken book loser.
Peristalsis is example of what type of muscle?
Peristalsis is the contraction of the digestive muscles. Peristalsis is the contractions that occur in the smooth muscles of the body.
What are murmurs?
Those which occur during relaxation of the heart between beats are called diastolic murmurs. Those which occur during contraction of the heart muscle are called systolic murmurs
Why is it important that summation not occur in heart muscle?
Basic muscle summation -an increase in the frequency with which a muscle is stimulated increases the strength of contraction. With increased stimuli to the heart if summation occurred the contractions would keep increasing.
What ion is essential for a muscle contraction to occur?
Calcium binding to actin-myosin causes contraction. The calcium is released to the sarcomere from a specialized storage organelle, the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
What Chemical reactions occur when practicing martial arts and what are their formulas?
I feel like this is such an oddly specific question that you are asking for a class or essay type question. Do the work and research : muscle contraction, ATP and the chemicals involved in muscle contraction, as well as acid buildup causing fatigue.
What is the pumping action of the heart called?
atrial and ventricular systole occur at the same time
When a person exercises change occur in the muscle cells as they release more energy?
Yes.
What are diastolic murmurs?
Those which occur during relaxation of the heart between beats are called diastolic murmurs. Those which occur during contraction of the heart muscle are called systolic murmurs
What change occur in sacomere during muscle contraction?
The sarcomere itself will become shorter.The sarcomere will shorten.
