Neuron signals (nerve impulses)
1. Released from the
spinal cord
2. Release of
calcium
3. Synaptic pump releases
acetylcholine
View source
Muscle contraction
1.
Acetylcholine
attaches to
acetylcholine
receptors in muscle fibers
2. Muscle is in an
excitation
state
View source
Cross-bridge
cycle
Connection between the head of
myosin
filaments and
actin
filaments causes action
View source
ATP hydrolysis
1. ATP hydrolyses to
ADP
and
phosphate
2.
Myosin
is ready to attach to
actin filaments
View source
Calcium attachment
1.
Calcium attaches to troponins
2.
Exposes the site of attachment in actin filaments
3.
Power stroke state where the sarcomere shortens
View source
Muscle contraction and relaxation
1.
ATP
plays an important role in the separation of the myosin and
actin
2. When the muscle is in a resting position,
tropomyosin
and troponin block the myosin-binding sites on
actin
filaments
