BIOXI20: LOCOMOTION AND MOVEMENT

340028 Chemical ions responsible for muscle contraction are

1 Na+and Ca2+
2 Na+and K+

4 Ca2+ and Mg2+
BIOXI20: LOCOMOTION AND MOVEMENT

340030 Which is correct between white and red muscles fibre?

1 White muscle fibre- Less myoglobin
2 White muscle fibre- Number of mitochondria is more
3 Red muscles fibre - Amount of sarcoplasmic reticulum is high
4 Aerobic muscle is white muscle fibre
BIOXI20: LOCOMOTION AND MOVEMENT

340031 Sliding filament theory can be best explained as

1 Actin and myosin filaments do not shorten but rather slide pass each other.
2 When myofilaments slide pass each other, myosin filaments shorten while actin filaments do not shorten.
3 When myofilaments slide pass each other actin filaments shorten while myosin filaments do not shorten.
4 Actin and myosin filaments shorten and slide pass each other.
