This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: MuscularSystemAmbroseCalandraOsypiukRybergWestover, motor neuron releases acetylcholine, skeletal muscle contraction exerts tension, motor neuron axons divide to form branches to each fiber of a skeletal muscle, ATP responsible for detaching of myosin from actin, creatine phosphate method of energy generation does not require oxygen, myosin must be phosphorylated to become active in contraction of smooth muscle, action potential initiated by stimulation from motor neuron, action potential transmission occurs fiber to fiber through gap junctions in smooth muscle, skeletal muscle composed of myofiber, oxygen allows aerobic respiration to produce ATP, skeletal muscle characterized by striations, striations repeated sequences of myosin, actin forms thin filaments with troponin, sodium helps maintain proper muscle tension, creatine reacts with phosphate to quickly produce ATP, skeletal muscle contracts in response to action potential, action potential causes release of Ca2+ from terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, ATP provides energy for sarcomere contraction in myofibril, actin forms thin filaments with tropomyosin, sodium influx causes depolarization phase of action potential
