5. Explain what gives muscle a striated appearance and name the myofilaments and the structures involved (Z disk, H band, I band ect.).
In an isometric contraction, how can the muscle stay the same length when the muscle is contracting? Can choose more than one - The muscle is not able to generate more (or the same amount) force than the load, preventing shortening of the muscle. - Calcium stops entering the sarcoplasm when the desired length is reached. - Elastic elements of the muscle stretch in response to the contraction of the muscle, so that the muscle stays the same size despite shortening sarcomeres. - The myosin heads detach from actin when they reach the desired length.

As we begin to learn about muscles, how does the "design" of the different muscles types help with their function? (ie. what kind of control do we have of each type [smooth, cardiac, and skeletal] and how that effects the role of that type of muscle).
