16. Cells scattered embedded in an extracellular matrix Connective Tissue

17. Matrix consists of fibers in a liquid, jellylike, or solid foundation Connective Tissue

18. –Collagenous fibers: strength and flexibility –Elastic fibers: stretch and snap back to their original length –Reticular fibers: join connective tissue to adjacent tissues Connective Tissue 3 connective tissue fibers, all protein:

19. Connective tissue contains cells, including –Fibroblasts that secrete the protein of extracellular fibers –Macrophages that are involved in the immune system Connective Tissue

20. Loose connective tissue: binds epithelia to underlying tissues and holds organs in place Cartilage: strong and flexible support material Fibrous connective tissue: in tendons, which attach muscles to bones, and ligaments, which connect bones at joints Connective Tissue in Vertebrates

21. Adipose tissue: stores fat for insulation and fuel Blood: is composed of blood cells and cell fragments in blood plasma Bone: is mineralized and forms the skeleton Connective Tissue in Vertebrates

43. Filaments slide past each other longitudinally, producing more overlap between thin and thick filaments A muscle contracts and shortens because its myofibrils contract and shorten. The Sliding-Filament Model of Muscle Contraction

ATP ADP P i + Cross bridge cycle

50. A skeletal muscle fiber contracts only when stimulated by a motor neuron When a muscle is at rest, myosin-binding sites on the thin filament are blocked by the regulatory protein tropomyosin The Role of Calcium and Regulatory Proteins

51. For a muscle fiber to contract, myosin-binding sites must be uncovered This occurs when calcium ions (Ca 2+ ) bind to a set of regulatory proteins, the troponin complex Muscle fiber contracts when the concentration of Ca 2+ is high; muscle fiber contraction stops when the concentration of Ca 2+ is low

52. Myosin- binding site Tropomyosin (a) Myosin-binding sites blocked (b) Myosin-binding sites exposed Ca 2+ Ca 2+ -binding sites Troponin complex Actin Tropomyosin: that blocks myosin from binding to thin filament Troponin complex: regulatory proteins which binds to Ca2+ Control of muscle contraction

53. Sarcomere Ca 2+ released from SR Synaptic terminal T tubule Motor neuron axon Plasma membrane of muscle fiber Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Myofibril Mitochondrion Sarcoplasmic reticulum

54. Ca 2+ ATPase pump Synaptic terminal of motor neuron Synaptic cleft T Tubule Plasma membrane Ca 2+ CYTOSOL SR ATP ADP P i ACh

55. Control of Muscle Contraction When Ca ++ concentration of the muscle cell cytoplasm is low, tropomyosin inhibits cross-bridge formation and the muscle is relaxed. Action potentials travel to the interior of the muscle fiber along transverse (T) tubules The action potential along T tubules causes the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) to release Ca 2+ The Ca 2+ binds to the troponin complex on the thin filaments This binding exposes myosin-binding sites and allows the cross-bridge cycle to proceed
