How does the myosin protein facilitate the process of dragging endorphins within the body?

Myosin protein helps move endorphins by binding to them and using energy to pull them along filaments in the body's cells.


What protein makes up the thick filaments of myofibrils?

Myosin makes up the THICK filaments, and actin makes up the thin filaments of myofibrils.


What are the proteins are involved in muscle contraction?

Actin and myosin


What are the thick protein filaments in the cell made of?

The thick protein filaments in a cell are primarily made of a protein called myosin. Myosin filaments are involved in muscle contraction and various other cellular processes such as cell motility and cytokinesis.


What is the function of myosin?

Myosin is responsible for actin-based muscular mobility/contraction.


Repeating units of actin and myosin filaments are called?

Repeating units of actin and myosin filaments are called sarcomeres. These are designed to control the contraction of muscles in the human body.


Binding of the myosin heads sequentially prevents what?

myosin crossbridge binding


The thick filaments of muscle fibers are composed of what?

Myosin


What does the release of ADP and P from the myosin head cause?

The release of ADP and P from the myosin heads causes the myosin heads to change shape.


What substances causes the myosin head to change shape?

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the main substance that causes the myosin head to change shape during muscle contraction. When ATP binds to the myosin head, it energizes the myosin molecule and allows it to detach from actin, resetting the myosin head for the next contraction cycle.


How do proteins actin and myosin interact to make a muscle contract?

Myosin and Actin
