tubules.
TASK

: Match keywords to definitions AFTER the video has
finished
Sarcolemma
The
membrane
around a
muscle
fiber
Myofibril
Contractile
sub-units
that make up the
muscle
fiber
Muscle
fiber
Very
long
cells that run along the
entire
muscle
Actin
and
myosin
Filaments made of
protein
that interlock together in order to cause the muscle to
contract
Sarcomere
Repeating sub-units found in the myofibrils that contain
actin
and
myosin
Sarcoplasmic reticulum
A network of membranes that surround the
myofibri
containing many
calcium
ions
T tubules
Indentations of the muscle
sarcolemma
that pass close to the
sarcoplasmic reticulum
