Acetylcholine

An increase in size of a certain muscle

Steady state

Cerebellum

Tissue that surrounds the whole muscle

Exentensibility

Isometric contraction

the part of the cerebral cortex in the brain in which originate the nerve impulses that initiate voluntary muscular activity

Motor unit

detects changes in muscle length and then force muscles to contract

Myofibril

the smallest functional, contractive unit of a myofibril. They occur as repeating units, extending from our Z-line to the next along the length of the myofibril

anabolic

Actin

a fibrous protein which works together with actin to form contractile filaments of muscle cells and is also involved in motion in other types of cell

The breakdown of molecules

Chronic hypertrophy

Acetyl CoA

A water-soluble enzyme that hydrolyzes trigylycerides in lipoproteins

Creatine kinase

the component of the cytoplasm of a cell, within which various organelles and particles are suspended

Glycolysis

Hexokinase

organelle found in most cells where the biochemical processes of repirationg and energy production occur

Oxygen

Phosphorylase

the addition of a phosphoryl group to a molecule. Turns proteins on and off

is the end product of glycolysis and is converted into acetyl CoA when there is sufficient oxygen.when there is insufficient oxygen, it is converted into lactic acid

Lactate

Glycogenolysis

Malate-Aspartate shuttle

a series of compounds that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors

is a compound that supplies energy for many biochemical cellular processes by undergoing enzymatic hydrolysis especially to ADP

is a compound made up of only 2 phosphates which when combined with another phosphate isconverted into ATP

is produced when two ADP are combined. When this happens 1 ATP is created along with 1 AMP

Golgi tendon

Muscle fatigue

Slow oxidative muscle fibres are highly resistant to fatigue and can work for longer

Fast Glycolytic muscle fibres fatigue very quickly and only last during short bursts of energy (100m sprint)

Fast oxidative glycolytic muscle fibres are in the middle of SO and FG when it comes to when they are used and how long they are used for

DOMS

Allosteric enzyme

Homeostasis
