What are the characteristics of skeletal muscle? - Answer-
Large, Cylindrical, many nuclei, striated, voluntary,
vascular, innervated at neuromuscular junctions, formed
from fusion of myoblasts
What are the functions of skeletal muscle? - Answer-
Movement, posture maintenance, temperature regulation,
storage of materials (amino acids and glycogen),
movement of materials, support abdominal organs, joint
stabilization

Deep fascia wraps... - Answer-Muscle groups
What is the order of skeletal muscle organization from
smallest to largest? - Answer-Myosin/Actin proteins,
thick/thin filaments, myofibril, myofiber, fascicle, muscle,

junction
The Terminal Cisternae... - Answer-Hold nutrients (mostly
calcium)
What is the process of muscle contraction? - Answer-1. An
action potential arrives at the neuromuscular junction. 2.
ACh is released, binds to receptors, and opens sodium ion
channels. 3. Action potential travels along the t-tubules. 4.
Calcium reacts with the troponin/tropomyosin complex,
