[Essay] Do you know "IceBucket challenge"? The purpose of this public welfare activity is to help the patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The main symptom of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is that the muscles of the patients gradually shrink until they die. However, not all muscles of the patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis are atrophic. Combined with the knowledge of muscle tissue we have learned, please talk about the types of muscle tissue, and what are the differences in the structure and function of these muscle tissues?

Ca2+ leak out of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, which results in myosin binding to actin. No more ATP is being made. Without the binding of ATP, the myosin head will not release from actin.

Calcium causes exocytotic release of Acetylcholine into the synaptic gap; all this happens at an area called the neuromuscular junction2. ATP is consumed which allows myosin to "pivot" the myosin head, which pulls actin toward it.3. This process is repeated multiple times and is called the "sliding filament theory".4. Myosin filaments perform "crossbridging".5. Calcium is released and circulated throughout the muscle cell6. The brain predicts the action necessary and decides which muscles and how many "motor units" are needed to perform that action.7. Tropomyosin moves to reveal the active site of the F-Actin strand8. Upon reception of a calcium ion, the Troponin complex becomes activated9. Proteins embedded in the Sarcolemma receive enough of the ACH neurotransmitter to generate an electrical impulse.10. The electrical impulse is perpetuated throughout the muscle fiber.11. A nervouse impulse is…arrow_forward
