Best Answer

One major function of the sarcoplasmic reticulum is the regulate the intracellular levels of CA2+ for contractions and relaxation for muscles. Sarcoplasmic Reticulum is a storage organelle with calcium ion pumps on membrane and use ATP to fuel pumps to get calcium ion inside it's cell and holds it. When contraction of muscle is needed calcium ion is then dumped into cytoplasm to cause contraction.

Enlarged portion of sarcoplasmic reticulum on either side of a transverse tubule?

The enlarged portion of sarcoplasmic reticulum on either side of a transverse tubule is called a terminal cisterna. These terminal cisternae play a vital role in the excitation-contraction coupling of skeletal muscle cells. They store and release calcium ions, which are essential for muscle contraction.


What is the organelle that stores calcium in resting muscle cells?

The Sarcoplasmic Reticulum stores calcium and releases it through the terminal cisternae into the tubule.


What is the difference between a dyad and triad in skeletal cardiac muscle?

In skeletal muscle, a triad is formed when a T-Tubule is flanked on either side by the calcium containing Terminal Cisternae of the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum, at the level of the Z-line. The intimate association of these three membranous sturctures (Terminal Cisternae---T-Tubule---Terminal Cisternae) for a Triad. This differs from a diad (or Dyad), in cardiac muscle where the T-Tubule is only intimately associated with ONE Terminal Cisternae.


What is normally stored in terminal cisternae?
