In sarcology, the term "sarcomere" refers to which of the following? The connective tissue layer surrounding the muscle The basic functional unit of a muscle fiber A nerve ending attached to the muscle The outer covering of the bone attached to the muscle

Page 4 of 10

Which protein is responsible for the thick filaments in a sarcomere? Actin Myosin Tropomyosin Troponin

Page 5 of 10

Which layer of connective tissue surrounds an entire muscle? Endomysium Perimysium Epimysium Sarcolemma

Page 6 of 10

In sarcology, what is the role of the sarcolemma? It is the contractile unit of the muscle fiber. It is the plasma membrane surrounding a muscle cell. It is a protein that facilitates muscle contraction. It is a structure that stores calcium ions.

What is the function of the sarcoplasmic reticulum in muscle cells? To produce energy for muscle contraction To store calcium ions essential for muscle contraction To transmit nerve signals to the sarcomere To connect muscle fibers with tendons

Which of the following structures serves as the point of attachment for actin filaments within the sarcomere? Z-line (Z-disc) M-line H-zone A-band

Page 9 of 10

During muscle contraction, which of the following statements about sarcomere structure is true? The Z-lines move apart. The sarcomere length remains constant. The A-band lengthens. The I-band and H-zone decrease in size.

What is the primary role of ATP in muscle contraction? It binds to actin to initiate contraction. It releases calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It provides the energy needed to detach myosin heads from actin filaments. It stabilizes the sarcomere structure.
