How do skeletal muscle fibers develop?
_______ cells are the source of muscle regeneration after injury.
_______ fuse to form a skeletal muscle fiber.
Myofibrils contain microfilaments that contain ____ and ____ .
What type of filament is actin: thin or thick?
What type of filament is myosin: thin or thick?
A Z line to Z line makes up a _____ .
____ band is made up of all myosin and a small amount of actin.
Why does the A band have a dark band and a density that causes a darkness to the stain?
This band is made up of all actin, which makes its stain light.
This line is a density of protein that actin binds to on the A band. It's a scaffolding of the entire muscle fiber.
True/False: The Z line changes during contraction.
Coined as the leverage point of the entire muscle.
During contraction, a repetition binding-movement-release cycles between the ____ heads and ____ filaments occurs.

What is the difference in cardiac muscle t-tubules and muscle cells' t-tubules?
____ _____ are modified cardiac myocytes interconnected by gap junctions (electrical synapses).
Where can smooth muscle be found?
What type of muscle Controls peristaltic motions of tubular structures?
