Sliding filament theory
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 4 years, 9 months ago

  • Sliding filament theory explains the mechanism of muscle contraction, which states that contraction of a muscle fibre takes place by the sliding of the thin filaments over the thick filaments.
  • The junction between a motor neuron and the sarcolemma of the muscle fibre is called the neuromuscular junction or motor-end plate.
  • A neural signal, released by central nervous system, when reaches the junction releases a neurotransmitter (Acetyl choline) which generates an action potential in the sarcolemma, which spreads through the muscle fibre and causes the release of calcium ions into the sarcoplasm.
